I voted 10-6 but will regret that when we go 11-5.

I'm going to be optimistic and call 9-7 with hopes of much better things to come next year.

That's exactly how I feel except I said 10-6.

I will go on record and say we are going to go 11-5 this year. With the talent we added concentrating on the D, I just dont see us not being in many games, and I think that we will win most close games.

Certainly I can see a lot of 13-10, 17-14, 21-17 type games, I dont think we will become an offensive juggernaut, but instead will live and die by the D.

Looking at the schedule, I see Dallas being 6-2 at the halfway point. I went a little conservative with a 5-3 second half.

If the young pups mature better than I expect, then it wouldn't surprise me to see Dallas challenge for a bye. Dallas is much more talented and deeper than last season.

1991 repeating itself.

11-5 and the playoffs

Superbowl champs in 2006

12-4 We havea breakout season, surprising everyone, but this time we are for real, unlike 2003.

10-6, but I'm hoping 11-5. Even tho the D will definitely be improved, it's the offense which will tell the tale. Gotta score some points.

11-5 baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Honestly believe the Cowboltz have Improved on their 2004 team. Whether or not all of the rookies will gel with the veterans at the same time is unlikely; but it actually could go in the other direction.

The benefit of the doubt is probably a safe guess ...8-8

Good hunting gents!

11-5. agree with fletch regarding the division games. Some tough AFC games, i think we go 2-2 aginst AFC. and 2 more losses against NFC teams outside our division.

[dargonking999]

who was it that was relying on rookie corners?

what crown?

they're pissed that they've never had a crown so they can't accept the fact that we're gonna kick they're arses all over the field next year.

the iggles may be able to say they have won the division a couple of times recently, but my response to that would be: how many SBs have you won?

I don't know...New England had one who happened to be their biggest liability on defense.

Sheppard and Brown were in their third year.

I predicted 10-6 myself, but, we have as much talent as almost anyone in the league.
