The Cowboys will win their division and get into the playoffs (they'll be the fourth seed) because Dak Prescott owns NFC East opponents like no other Cowboy quarterback ever but that's all they're going to do is get into the playoffs. They'll end up playing either Minnesota, Greenbay, Seattle, or San Fransico at home and I'm not so sure they can beat any of those teams.

They can beat any of those teams if they play their game. Seattle to me is the best of the bunch. They are going to be the #5 seed that knocks off the higher seed.

If they win the division, it’ll be tough for anybody to go into Seattle and win.

I'm glad that you think these Cowboys will still win the NFC East. It seems a sentiment I don't share at this point. I did about a month ago when they beat Philly, and thought the Eagles would have collapsed after that. But from the looks of it, the Eagles have gotten their act together while we look like that team ripe for a collapse.

Yeah, I am not sure they are winning the division. I think there is a small chance that game in Philly might not matter if we don't pull our heads from our butts.

Philly could win one of the next two meaning they would be 9-5 by that game in Philly. With the way we are playing, we could easily lose three of the next 5 games - @ Detroit, @ NE, Bills, @ Bears, Rams. If that happens, we'd be 7-7 at that point and even beating Philly wouldn't help us unless Philly sucks the last week against the Giants, which wouldn't happen.

I need to see something big from this team in Detroit on Sunday. If they spit the bit and lose, I suspect my scenario above may in fact play out.

Dak owning the NFC East will mean nothing if we can't win the other games...
We need to worry about our team right and how we're going to avoid an implode and how to win regular season games rather than trying to go the playoffs.

Well there you have it. No sense playing the games now you ruined it for everyone.

They'll beat the Lions this week regardless who the Lions have at quarterback but it will be a struggle once again, starting slow and barely winning.

I see them beating the Lions this week (must win for sure) and of course beating both the Eagles and Commanders to go undefeated in the division that gives them 8 wins right there so one more win should do it (Bills, Rams, Patriots, Bears) and they should be at least capable of beating ONE of those teams!

OMG... please let’s not advance in the playoffs. It’s not worth winning a championship if we had to keep Garrett.

It’s possible the Rams might not have a winning record by the time we face them. That could be another winnable game.

This is all setting up for the big showdown in Philthy.

Unfortunately for Dallas, they have to beat some opponents that are not in the NFC East to win the division.

All they've beaten is Miami.

1 question. How can anyone @see us beating the Lions this week@ after losing to the JETS and losing to the Vikings, Saints, all games we were "supposed" to win.
I think it's questionable that this team wins another game, but regardless, I'm not speculating in favor of this team anymore this year. The Don't Pass line for me from here on out with this disaster. Should be entertaining to watch though!

All that matters is that Dak pads his stats....playoffs who cares with these Dak-Employees.....

if garrett were to be fired now, I think it would be so uplifting to the team they could go all the way to the big dance.

At 7:30 p.m. Sunday night, the Cowboys will be 6-4, the Eagles will be 5-5, and we will have the tie-breaker.
