Is the door open for the Cowboys to take the NFCE?

That is not even a good comparison because the Giants had a great defensive line which the Cowboys do not have
The Giants held everyone under 21 points in the postseason. Held one of the highest scoring O's of all time to a paltry 14 pts in the super bowl.

you guys using history to say see... look what they did is damn stupid. They sucked most of the season and NOBODY saw them getting any better, then they got hot. Thats the entire point of this thread. Yes, its still open to win the east.
 
Nope, I was gambling!!!!! They were discussing it, were they full of it?
They got beat 26-14 and DART sucked. He was 26-40 for 202 yards and 2 picks... 2tds, but he didnt look any better.

They didn't get hot, they unleased one of the best pass rushes this league has ever seen.

I think he meant against the Chargers. The Giants scored TDs on their first two possessions. Something they haven't done in 5 years. They also turned the ball over on 5 straight possessions.

Maybe I wasn't too drunk yet early in the game!!!

bahahhahahahhahahahaahh.... oh, ok. I see how that works.... you know what, you are right. The jets unleashed a killer offense in the 4th quarter against us. Why were they 7-7 after 14 games?
 
Before anyone decides to hurl insults at me, Philly is still the team to beat and most likely sitting atop the division when it's over. Our defense may put us in a hole we can't recover from. Washington doesn't have a good overall roster and the Giants are, well, the Giants.

But things in Philly are getting interesting. Hurts, Brown, and Barkley had a meeting that was picked up by the media. All three say it was just friends and teammates talking about getting the offense on track, but this comes a few days after both Mailata and Johnson spoke out in a way that denoted displeasure with the offense, despite the team's current record.

Famous Chiefs-stan Nick Wright, sharing a mic with Cowturd, suggested that their OC, Patillo, is on the hot seat. Sirianni knows his team is too talented to be playing the way they've been playing. He also knows that ownership in Philly holds people accountable.

In 2022, Sirianni gave up play calling after seven or eight games. The offense took off all the way to the Super Bowl.
In 2023, two new coordinators were allowed to stay all year, and the NFL figured out their high school schemes by week 11. The team tanked in the first round.
In 2024, the unfairly maligned Moore and Fangio took over, and we know what happened.

Jalen Hurts is now, going back to his college years, on his eight different OC.

If Philly falters, what team benefits the most? IMO, our Cowboys. Why?

Two reason stand out that point in that direction. First is that our offense is simply on fire. Part of this might be that we haven't played the best competition in most games, but no team put up these yards and points by accident. Our offense is damn good and can carry us past 2/3's of the league even with the current state of our defense. Is it sustainable? Maybe not through the entire back end of the schedule, but we're probably not dropping 30 points a game every week anyway.

Second, while our schedule is tougher the second half of the season, this is when our wounded on defense return. Overshown will be a massive boost to a LB corps that seems to be one of the worst tackling units in the league. Bland's return will be a boost to a secondary that needs help, to be kind. The return of both players should help the defense greatly.

Should Philly falter, the Cowboys are the team in the best position to take advantage of their fall. Strange things have happened in the past, so who knows what the future holds?
Too early. Talk to me after the Denver game. Otherwise we are playing to build momentum for 2026: w/2 1st Rd picks to significantly lift D talent.

This team may arrive sooner than anyone expected, or could get run out of the building by any team not from Gotham.

I think you may want to put the pipe down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I'm still trying to figure out how the Eagles are 4-1 with the 30th ranked offense and 20th ranked defense.
Because their opponents, obviously including the Cowboys, are not good enough to beat a team that is clearly struggling. They’re 4-1, they’ve played 4 teams that were in the playoffs last year. Three division winners from last year. Going into week six the only team they’ve played that has a losing record was in the Super Bowl last season.

Instead of what’s wrong with the Eagles, what’s wrong with the teams they’ve played? It was nice to see the Broncos show up and beat them. And that was barely. Now it’s the Giants turn tomorrow night. Cripes, if Philly gets any worse they’ll win the rest of their games.
