Why are the Cowboys so shit despite being apparently the wealthiest team in world sport?

It doesn’t work that way. The NFL is a closed league in that players don’t have anywhere else to go. It also has a salary cap. It also has the convenience of the the universities to serve as a proving ground/finishing school for young talent.

The fact that the Green Bay Packers are on the same footing financially as the New York Giants is what makes the NFL so compelling. It’s not often you get back to back Super Bowl winners/participants. Having said that the KC Chiefs are basically thst because they have the tremendous QB Patrick Mahomes but they have been astute enough to draft wisely and be able to put the pieces around him. It’s not easy to do. They lost some very good players due to free agency yet they replaced them and haven’t missed a beat.
 
Seeing as I’ve only seen the Cowboys and Lions live it’ll have to be one of them and I might as well be a glory hunter. Lions for me from now on.

The call against the Bills on the sack (roughing the passer for a routine tackle) is why I have basically stopped watching this sport. That and ridiculous pass interference calls. A contact sport that doesn’t allow contact.

The commanders had a ridiculous pass interference cal on Sunday night against St Juste. The receiver just fell backwards

It’s pretty frustrating. I also don’t care for the first down and sack celebrations. Touchdowns, absolutely. Do whatever. But you just had a seven yard catch when you needed five and you’re still on your own 32? Spare me acting like you just won the Super Bowl.

Lions. They play in blue and have been pretty much shite for, well forever and have started to pick up in the last few seasons. Cowboys/Patriots - Rags, Chiefs - Scousers.

I'm pretty sure I'll never see the Dolphins in a Superbowl :-(

Dolphins had a good side mid eighties with Marino qb, and some good receivers in Clayton Duper and Moore but I can’t see this side emulate that team. They were my second team after the Redskins as Marino was real quality
Unfortunately I think the Ravens or Chiefs will win it this year but I would like the lions to do it for the first time
