Where do you rank the Cowboys in the NFC right now?

Let's assume we have a season and the QB shows up, what are your expectations?

What must McC and his new staff accomplish for you to consider this a successful season.

And has this changed since he was hired? FA acquisitions and draft picks affect your expectations?

I'm not convinced we make the playoffs. I need to see this team overcome tough games before I believe it.

3rd easiest schedule so I expect 10 wins and the division.Beyond that I'm pretty unsure. They have done a very good job at addressing things this off-season. I know theres more to do but you cant have all pros and first rounders everywhere.

I'm optimistic we can hang with anyone not named KC,Baltimore of San Fran and maybe even them to extent.Pressure Jimmy G he'll cave.

I still don't quite think the NYG or Commanders will be much of a team next year, they had a ton or turn around coaching wise(like Dallas!!)..but let's assume Philly is decently decent. Assuming the QB shows up to play(some say it's a given), Dallas will still have some issues with the new staff and new "wrinkles" of a new "system" with similar "terminology".

I don't have any high expectations for the secondary, and I don't believe much in The Reinstatement Bros, so I expect there to be a decent struggle defensively.

I'd say, a fair expectation is a few surprise wins, a couple close losses, and maybe a wildcard appearance?

Who knows honestly, there are so many questions..just in the division itself..but I'll stick with the Wildcard prediction/expectation. Seems fair.

The same expectations we had last year.

Championship game or bust.Right?

Or has the bar lowered with a better HC?

Nobody is actually answering the question.

My estimation in the NFC is 5th best behind Green Bay, San Francisco New Orleans and Seattle. I don't see any of those teams as so strong they couldn't be passed, but Dallas would have to prove they are capable of passing them, and I can't at this time project that.

Considering I thought they should have won the division and be in the thick of things for the Halas trophy last year, I'm thinking 19-0 with McCarthy and Co.

The 49ers are the class of the NFC (yuck, I just threw up in my mouth)

But, I think we are in the group just below, that should be in the playoffs and could challenge them if everything jells just right.

I think we are the #1 offense in the NFC. I think, defensively, much better against the run, more turnovers, but still a little nervous about the pass-rush and the coverage.

A 500 team based on new coach and new system and lack of installation time. At last report the QB wasn't going to learn the system till he got paid. You have an O Line with question marks at two positions that has to jell. You have a defense with new players all over place that has to jell.

Would LOVE to see this McCarthy team in a preseason game at least. I think we all need that right now.

If we can score 30 points a game then we will go far into the playoffs,that should be our goal to make our Offense really hard to defend.
