Does the season already hinge on this weekend?

If the Cowboys fail to beat he Falcons on Sunday, that means they could be looking squarely at 0-3 with a trip to Seattle looming right after.

That would mean the Cowboys would be 2-7 in their last nine games, already with 4 of those games under 17 points scored and counting.

Yes, this is the most embarrassingly bad division in the NFL, so i know they'd still be alive in the East. But anything meaningful might already be lost for this season as they scramble for a 8-8 season from there.

If that transpires, it might be best for Dallas to start looking hard in the mirror as to what they are and what they need to do.

This team needs a convincing outcome on Sunday.

I realize Collins is out of shape and will return. I know Lee and Vander Esch and Gregory and Carr will be here soon. "Help" is on the way.

But I also know that other injuries are coming, too. It's never going to be all hands on deck for any length of time in the NFL.

Time for less hype and more quality of play.

Who cares about winning the East and going to slaughter in the wild card or divisional round? Right now, real contending teams are three touchdowns better than Dallas.

Every offseason, we hear our name as this big contender. Then the season starts, and we fail to beat a single playoff team like last year (the Eagles don't count after what happened in the final game.) We can't even break 20 points in half of our last 7 games. Beating up on the Giants and Commanders is meaningless.

Here's the ugly truth. The Rams will finish last, quite possibly, in their division. Their defense is average at best. Their quarterback is mediocre at best. They are an average football team.

And score aside, that game Sunday looked like a 28-7 trouncing much of the game. How Dallas held them to 20 points was a miracle.

A loss this weekend, and the state of mind of the team could implode, and the Seahawks may beat them by 30.
