Loss: Elimination from playoff contention

Coming into this season, I thought that the playoffs were an easy write-off. The offense looked as good as it’s been in years, with the young defense getting better every year.

Things were looking very bright for a team that has been mediocre since the ’90s. Of course, they came into the season starting great at 3-0, and things went downhill from there.

The Cowboys baited us into thinking this year would be different, and then they fell. They also made sure to give glimpses of what they could do throughout the season to keep us all believing.

They had a great chance to clinch a playoff spot back in Week 16 when they played the Eagles, but they fell apart. The Cowboys looked like a completely different team against the Eagles in comparison to how they looked in Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams.

The big problem is that it is what has been ongoing all season, and now Dallas is suffering the consequences. You can’t be an All-Star team one week and then be a Division-III football team the next week.

Who will take the blame for this mess? If there is one person within the Dallas Cowboys organization that could be looked at as the root of all these problems, who could it possibly be?
