Typical Heath Evans on NFLnw

Just gave Dallas 8-8 record losing twice again to NY and all 4 in December

Good grief Heath

He claims the insiders all think Dakcomes down to earth. Seems like overkill to me

Same dude who predicted us to win less than 6 games last year ... he's a hater

Whatever doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. I love it!
Yeah easy for us to say. But I do feel for the players when they don't get the proper rest which makes them even more susceptible to injury.

Some points:
1. New head coaches in Denver (no Wade Phillips coaching the Denver D as well), LA Rams, San Francisco, and the LA Chargers.
2. Aging QB's for Arizona & the Chargers, Denver has no QB, and a lackluster Alex Smith with the Chiefs.
3. Dallas will be better prepared to play the Gnats (Eli can easily be rattled).
4. Seattle outside of Seattle is a definitely a winnable game.

Basically, Aaron Rodgers is the only QB who has consistently scorched Dallas.
Wentz, Carr, Cousins, and Ryan can all be corralled, and knocked around if Marinelli develops an aggressive defensive scheme.

Dig deeper that schedule is not that difficult ~ assuming Garrett does not get out-coached (Andy Reid or Mike McCarthy will be a challenge) or fails to get the team prepared.

Rams and 49ers only freebies on that schedule. Gonna be a tough one this year.

The schedule looks tough on paper but hey aren't we supposed to be a tough team ourselves? That and the other teams in the division basically got the same schedule so I'm not sweating it. I just find it funny the first Romo called game is on week 9 at home. I wonder how late they do the schedules lol.
Week "9" for our old #9. Fitting.

Hopefully, it won't be as tough as it appears. With that said, if the NFC East turns out to be the 2014 version of the NFC South, so be it as long as Dallas is the one who gets to advance. The division should be there for the taking even if the schedule is brutal.

I don't like that they have a string of very physical opponents to start the year. Not sure how good Denver will be, but they will certainly try to leave a mark. Legally or otherwise.
