“One Cadillac And 52 KIAs”
September 9th, 2009Bucs fans who believe a win is possible against Dallass this weekend need to e-mail Tim Cowlishaw. It seems the BSPN contributor and Dallas Morning News columnist is of the opinion that the Bucs will be NFL bottom feeders this season.
Cowlishaw recently wrote two pieces referencing the Bucs. One was in an NFC South preview where he referred to the Bucs — who he says will finish 3-13 — as “one Cadillac and 52 KIAs.”
In a column from the Dallas Morning News, Cowlishaw writes how the Cowboys lucked out with such soft opponents to open the season.
It’s also easy to like the way the schedule-maker has the Cowboys opening with three winnable road games the first five weeks. Tampa Bay, Denver and Kansas City should be among the bottom 10 teams in the NFL this season.
Bottom five for all three is possible.
So the opportunity for excitement in September and October is real. The Cowboys and Eagles should be playing for first place or some share of it when Dallas goes to Philadelphia on Nov. 8.
While Joe does believe Dallass will be a formidable opponent, Joe isn’t so sure the game will be a cakewalk for Dallass. Joe believes the Bucs have a legitimate shot.

I hate to tell Cowlishaw this but KIA is in better financial condition than GM.

Cowlishaw is a joke. Anyone who thinks Dallas is going to be a powerhouse obviously isn’t seeing the writing on the wall. Say what you want about Raheem but he hasn’t coached a game yet, Wade Phillips has, and he’s proven he’s one of the dumbest coaches in the league. Dallas has no real #1 WR, Witten is by far their best option on offense. If the bucs front 7 can keep their run game in check, and our running game can go like it did all preseason, we could make some noise. Dallas’s 3-4 is great pass rush but look what baltimore and philly did with tandem RBs the last two games of last year, they TORCHED DALLAS on the ground, and wore them out with fresh RBs, thats something I think the Bucs can do.
