A franchise's failure is caused by either a curse or a lack of the 'clutch gene'

D.C. is a loser town

Say what you want about Dan Snyder. They always compare the D.C. teams because D.C. is a loser town. I agree with that 100%. You can't really make an argument against that.

While subjective, the 'loser town' label was shortly debunked by championships from the Capitals (2018), Mystics (2019), and Nationals (2019).

The Cowboys are a bad football team

The Cowboys are a bad football team. And I can't wait for people to start to say like, this is when, look at the schedule. Dallas is gonna put some wins together.

The quality of a team is partly evaluative, though the season's playoff result could test the narrower claim that Dallas is not a serious championship threat.

Performance-enhancing drug shortages may explain dominant teams falling off

There started to be severe, severe supply chain issues when it came to performance enhancing drugs and peptide shipments coming to the United States. I just think it's interesting.

This speculative causal theory is not established by the transcript or otherwise verifiable from the available context.
