"All season long we've been asking Cowboys fans how confident they were in the direction of the team. If you graph the results, they will closely follow wins and losses. There are some variables, like the close loss to the Philadelphia Eagles to start the season. Going into that game, on the heels of trading Micah Parsons, the team only had 35% confidence from fans. After losing 24-20, confidence rose to 68%."
"Confidence reached a season-low 7% when the Cowboys got smacked around by the Chicago Bears in Week 3. Confidence reached a season-high of 82% when the Cowboys made their mini-run after the bye and trade deadline. That was the time when they were in play for a playoff spot. The loss to the Detroit Lions sent that crashing back to 35%."
Fan confidence in the Cowboys tracked closely with game outcomes across the season, showing sharp swings after key wins, losses, and roster moves. Confidence fell to 35% before the Eagles game after the Micah Parsons trade, then rose to 68% after a 24-20 loss. Confidence plunged to 7% after the Week 3 loss to the Bears and later peaked at 82% during a late-season mini-run following the bye and trade deadline while the team was playoff-eligible. A loss to the Lions dropped confidence back to 35%. The most recent survey shows only 21% of fans feel the team is headed in the right direction.
