Mainly because of #4 and the front office.

Next up, the Dallas Cowboys. Schein explains.

Too high? Well, I am going to operate under the dangerous blanket of assumption that Dak Prescott eventually signs a long-term deal. Mike McCarthy maximizes Dak, improving his consistency and making him a Super Bowl champion. That’s why McCarthy was brought to Dallas: to hoist the Lombardi Trophy. He’s done it. And he will again.

McCarthy is an offensive guru, and this squad is loaded with talent on that side of the ball. Prescott’s flanked by one of the game’s best running backs in Ezekiel Elliott, and Tony Pollard flashed plenty of ability as a rookie runner last season. Meanwhile, Dallas could definitely possess the top receiving trio in the NFL, with first-round pick CeeDee Lamb joining a pair of 1,000-yard wideouts in Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup. And while Travis Frederick’s retirement hurts, the offensive line should be just fine with Tyron Smith, Zack Martin and La’el Collins holding the fort.

Questions do exist on defense. Beyond DeMarcus Lawrence, where will the pass rush come from? Does the secondary, minus free-agent departure Byron Jones, have the personnel to hold up in today’s pass-happy league? Mike Nolan has his work cut out for him in his first year as Dallas’ defensive coordinator, but it’s not like this unit’s completely devoid of talent. In addition to Lawrence, 24-year-old linebackers Jaylon Smith and Leighton Vander Eschalso have Pro Bowl recognition on the resume.

All in all, this roster has plenty of win-now talent in an NFC East featuring multiple teams in transition. Dallas hasn’t even made it past the Divisional Round for nearly a quarter century. The time is now for the ‘Boys to finally deliver the goods.

They could be. Doesn't mean they will be. We can only hope that's the case! If McCarthy can get this D to match the offense, this team could be in the thick for a while. That would be a nice change of pace!

No reason we can’t be.

We’ve worked our way into a pretty good salary cap position thanks to good drafting, not paying a QB, and using Free Agency as a band aid.

Really I think how successful we are will
come down to what we can get from the secondary.

The team hasn’t gotten past the divisional round in 25 years and the Cowboys are one of the top candidates for the next great dynasty? :rolleyes:

Let’s at least make the playoffs in consecutive years and get past the divisional round before citing us as one of the top candidates for the next great dynasty.
