When we played three games with back-ups, who took all the snaps, that positivity was not being extolled by the national media.
LOL this is true actually.

Yeah. I do. Their job is ratings and keeping viewers tuned in. Pointing out that with a field goal the cowboys are still in the game is EXACTLY what they should do.

The reason the announcers seem so biased this year is because we're actually winning, and the announcers are trained to make every game seem like something game-changing is just about to happen. They're never going to say "Well this one's over!"
That said, Buck really sounds like a Cowboys homer and I hate listening to him. Aikman is pretty good, although obviously it bugs him a little when his former team gets crushed.
Who is saying the Cowboys are a playoff contender with Weeden as their QB? No one. The same was true with us when Stanton was starting. We were winning games, but not a serious contender. are we really that needy? Mom, Billy's not sharing his toy. mom, billy got to play nintendo longer than me. Mom, Billy told me to shut up. Ugh.
What did you want him to say? "The Cards are about to score a touchdown and put this game away. Everyone should feel free to turn the game off as it is OVER."

Wow. People must hear what they want to hear. My wife kept asking me if the commentators were FOR the Cardinals because they kept saying positive things about our team.
She was shocked when I told her one of the announcers was former Cowboy Troy Aikman.
7-1 has a respect all its own.You are right on. People need to cry even when things are going well. It's sad, really. We're going to have posts all week about how we don't get any respect. I know one thing: 7-1, baby.
Additionally, Aikman was very fair today, as he usually is. He does a lot of Dallas games, and handles it very well.

Still not apples to apples. Weeden has been getting #1 QB reps all through TC up through now. Stanton got #1 reps for what, 3 weeks. So yes Weeden is the best prepared backup QB in the NFL .
Wrong. Just because he took the snaps means nothing. Buck's point was Cowboys are so well coached they're prepared for anything. When it was Stanton the media had us in panic mode. The number of snaps doesn't make him the best prepared anything. Every time they mention the game during "GameBreak" they say Cardinals over the Romo-less Cowboys as if that was the key. CBSSPortsline.com has the same headline.
I just don't see getting riled up over this. Every day it seems like there's a thread about how the Cards are dissed. Does this really amount to a hill of beans?
Just win, baby.

I reflexively dislike the idea of Aikman calling a Dallas game but I thought he did alright, especially when he agreed the hands to the face against PP was pure BS. We are a long ways removed from the days when we would invariably get the third string JV announcers to call every Cardinals game.
