Are Dallas Cowboys Fans the Most Superstitious in the NFL?

This will not be difficult to comprehend

The NFL kicks off tonight on AmazonPrime and I wanted to share my thoughts about being a Cowboys fan with you. This is for the fans of the “Other 31” and hope it provides some general understanding as a result.

One of the hardest knocks on Cowboys fans is the saying “It’s Our Year” heading into each season. What’s wrong with that? How many NFL fans do you know that go into every season saying “It’s Not Our Year?”

I certainly did last season when Dak Prescott was injured though. I began to awfulize the rest of the season at that point. Now look how that turned out for us. My question to fans of the other 31 NFL teams is this. Why would it not be your year? Please comment below I'm genuinely interested in reading it.

Another “First” will be made this NFL season

Negative thoughts can manifest negative experiences. Why do you even want that energy on you, let alone your favorite NFL team? It’s the Dallas Cowboys year every year when the season starts until it’s not. Unless perhaps the unthinkable 1st happens this post-season come next February.

If you’re reading this as an NFL fan today, please stop awfulizing your season. Is this the same way you approach your personal life? That’s a whole different conversation. If so please Ask 4 Help.

I never did understand how fans from the “Other 31” NFL teams go into each season thinking it’s “Not their year.” The TRUTH is it’s everybody’s year starting tonight! Week by week deep into this winter will determine the remaining two teams who have a date in post-season paradise next February.

Which 2 teams remain? Let’s manifest it.

I have the Cowboys over the Bills.

It’s our year!
