Are we a well run organization: Long answer: Unknown. We have undergone a lot of turmoil the last 10 years. That's to be expected with an ownership change. Gibbs' brought stability and class that was sorely needed. Last year was VC's first year officially calling the shots, so the jury's still out. A lot will depend on how the draft goes and the 2009 season goes before that determination can be made.
Short answer: Based on the last 10 years of W-L, No.

Are we a contender: Yes, we have holes like every other NFL team, but we were 6-2 to start the year before the OL broke down and we ran into a few real solid defenses. We fix the OL and have a fairly injury free season (knock on wood) and we're 10-6 / 11-5 and in the playoffs.

On Cowherd and his Skins fan rant, how quickly he forgets both Manning and McNabb were on the verge of being run out of their respective cities by the fans before Manning had the SB run in 2007 and McNabb closed out 2008 strong. On Dallas fans, (excluding a couple of members here) for the most part they're just either morons who think their team can do no wrong or closet dwellers when they lose.
