Our division looks awful and after this week our schedule looks easy for awhile

The Eagles are 1-0. Despite preseason projections, that offense looked strong. Hurts completed over 70% of his passes and threw a TD to each of his three receivers. No INT's. He also ran for 64 yards. Meanwhile the RB, Miles Sanders, averaged almost 5 yards a carry.

Then there is the Eagle defense that held their opponent scoreless in the 2nd half. Together, their offense and defense provided the 2nd largest scoring margin last week and they were #1 in yardage margin.

Sure, the Falcons are weak but is our defense going to be any stronger come week #3? Can we stop an athletic QB and a strong running game? Isn't that exactly what this Cowboy defense can't do?

An 0-2 start doesn't concern some of you? An 0-3 start should terrify you.

If the Eagles should defeat the 49ers, their morale will be sky high. They play well in our stadium.

In the past 30 years only 4 teams reached the playoffs after starting 0-3, all one and done.


The Falcons defense is atrocious. Everybody has big games against them.

They are doing it without major injuries. Phillies win is not impressive
With or without injuries, 0-3 means Season Over for the Cowboys unless they manage to accomplish something that's never been done.

How many times has an NFC East rival turned their prospects around on the backs of the Cowboys?

The Eagles game will be as close to a "must win" scenario that's possible in September should the Cowboys lose to the Chargers.

That’s where we differ. I don’t think the Eagles game is going to be hard to win. I just don’t think they are a good team

Every year is different in terms of teams improving or regressing from the previous year.
But with that said there's only the Saints and WFT and Chiefs left out of 16 games remaining that were playoff teams from last year.
I mean, even a casual observer could say the schedule does not appear too challenging.
Add in how weak the division is and it truly should be seen as a no more excuses type year.

In my opinion anyway.

We won’t win this week. Sorry buddy.:(

But a nice run should start after.
Good posts about the Cowboys going on a run but they can beat the Chargers. We got a mini bye and as much as I love their quarterback, his weapons are limited. I am concerned about Bosa and Allen. Their secondary is a mess. We can win the game if Dak is who he is paid to be.

The only team that looks "awful" in the division, is NY.

Not really concerned about other teams in the division, my concern is the Cowboys winning game including this weekends game. Winning solves a lot of problem
