Close but NYG are worse than NYJ by a small margin and Commanders are worse than Pitt.

How does the closeness of their ineptitude matter? They all stink, but the Patriots are celebrated.

First off, I think the Cowboys will be good but it has nothing to do with these games. If they lost I would be surprised and disappointed, I expected them to win them well before the season started.

The Patriots are celebrated because, well, ya know...they’ve actually won Super Bowls in this century, have made multiple playoff appearances, have a dominant coach and one of the best QB’s of all time. We have what? A couple playoff wins in this century and a history of choking.

Good points, but I tend to look at current events rather than the past. In the past Dallas won five Superbowls; not relevant to today's team.

Completely agreed, I can’t stand fans living in the past and bringing up our dusty Lombardis from almost 30 years ago but the Patriots aren’t really living in the past. They’re probably the best dynasty to ever play in the league and have won how many of the past 5 Super Bowls? In other words, they’re still relevant and still in a dynasty although it’s coming to an end IMO. Having said that, I wouldn’t be the slightest bit surprised if we give them everything they can handle and even win in Foxboro.

Tale of two halves for sure. It was UGLY the first two quarters, kind of embarrassing against that team but I wasn't really worried. I liked what I saw with Robert Quinn though. He is going to help a lot.

First quarter was fine to me as we jumped to a 10-0 lead.

Second quarter was bad. Dak was trying to do way too much, forcing deep shots that just weren’t there.

Glad we got it rolling again in the third.
