Tim MacMahon E-mail News tips
The Cowboys seem convinced that they'll flip a switch now that it's playoff time and everything will be just fine.
There's a still a lot of confidence in that locker room, despite the fact that not a single player in there has won a playoff game with a star on his helmet. Hey, maybe they're right. If that's the case, their 2-2 record in December will be forgiven and forgotten.
It is worth pointing out that the Colts went 2-3 last December and did OK in the playoffs.
There is precedent for such flip-switching around these parts. The Cowboys' last Super Bowl champions went 2-2 in December, with one of the wins coming on a last-second field goal.
Of course, a lot of guys on that team already had two rings.
