Feh.

Stanton and a 49er team that has checked out. Easy.
:lol

You must be advising Aikman and co these days. They crowed all day about AZ being in trouble and possibly not winning another game and all they did was beat the Chiefs.

SF? Yeah, I give you that one...team looks to be quitting, but its still not going to be an easy game.

Yeah and this "successful season" guarantees Garrett will be back. If that's the case, I at least want a playoff win.

...and guarantees three 8-8 seasons in 2015, '16 and '17

I would not. Not at all.

Forget the records.

We once again are in control of our own destiny. Win 3 in a row, we are in. And two of the remaining 3 are against teams that suck.

This is not an impossible task in front of them.

If we miss the playoffs, it will be another failure.
I wouldn't say that 2 of the last 3 teams suck.

Its basically the same MO year in and year out with Garrett.

Once again, they are where they are because of stupid-ass losses against shit teams like the Redskins and Super Colt, and games where they don't show up at all like the Eagles game.

Win the Redskins game and the whole scenario is different right now. Garrett should be fired if they fail to make the playoffs based on the Redskin loss alone.

This is why I'm completely convinced that this franchise is being punished for some unholy deal that Jerry Jones made for those Super Bowls (particularly the one with Switzer)...

in any of the past 3 seasons, 9 wins would have had us in the playoffs, this year we've got the 9, but now it's looking like we are going to need 12.

They have a recipe for success.

Run the mother humping ball down their throat and play action outta nowhere.

Keep the defense off the field and wind the clock down.

Romo is great. I love the Romo. But the key to winning is riding Murray. Randle's move against the Bears was reason for excitement as well.

Please Father Christmas, all I want is to see Romo not piss it all away. Please let us win at least one playoff game this year.

I think if we win 2 of 3 we get in. I just don't trust Det and AZ has a killer end of season schedule. This team has flaws, but beyond the Wash loss we don't have a glaring bad loss this year. For whatever reason, I think the make up of this team is different than the past. I hope I am right.

How interesting. I didn't know Christmas was a father.

Although you could legitimately argue that the Washington loss cost us 2 games, that one and the Romo-less loss to AZ.

Washington and NY suck. And the Eagles are solid but hardly the 85 Bears. All 3 teams are very beatable.
The Giants game will be interesting IMO. The Giants are so all over the map I could see them giving Philly all they could handle in week 17.

We don't play NY. We have already beaten them twice this year. We have IND left on our schedule and while they aren't a powerhouse they don't suck.

I don't know. Philly blew their doors off the first time they played. They are all over the map but I don't know that they match up with philly.

on the flip side Washington gave Philly all they could handle the first time. They just seem like a broken team at this point though.

They played the Giants BB (Before Beckham). He heals all wounds.

Nevermind. I thought you meant that the last three games on our schedule were against teams that suck. Philly and Indy definitely DO NOT suck! LOL!
