I rarely agree with Mickey
But he is right about one thing
If this defense can be average, this team can win this division
It will take more than average to win the big one but average is a reasonable expectation for this season

I won't read his propaganda crap, but I do agree with that assessment. If the Cowboys get even league average level defense, they should win this division and get into the playoffs. And, if the defensive improvement continues, they might even win a game or two when they get there.

My prediction is the defense will be much improved , not possible to do worse than last year really . The offense will be ok but am not sure how good Dak will be after that injury . Am sure he will be a bit slower . But hopes am wrong .
10-7 is a good possibility, with a playoff win . hopefully the offense is humming and we do even better in the playoffs but am being realistic .

I been saying. Improve enough to be average, rank 15 to 18. But by the playoffs be playing like a top 8 to12. Then good things will happen in the playoffs.

I agree completely. And I think we've seen a few recent examples of 'good' teams winning Super Bowls because they improved throughout the season and got hot at the right time.

Never a better example of that than the Bucs, Even their HC was pushing doubt about Brady. They were a mess early in the season.

Mickey talking about the injured players on offense looking good in their rehab.
Also mentions if the defense can moderately improve or even get to average, will be a big help.

Have at it.

Micky the super homer, mouthpiece for the cowboys, states the obvious.

Another guy who thinks the Cowboys offense is so super-duper "average" defense is enough. Even Mahomes' Chiefs couldn't win it with average defense, as the Patriots put up 37 on them. The next year they had a top 10 defense and they beat the Niners.

If the Chiefs had Dak, that would have been a very different super bowl last year. That is why Jerry paid the man 40 large. You can’t see Dak laying 40-burgers on opposing defenses on a weekly basis?

Cowboys Nation is very aware the D can/will improve moderately along w/the rest of the corps.

Tell us something we don't already know Spag!

I beg to differ. The Chiefs O-line was missing key players. Thus, Mahomes was running for his life trying to make plays.

Well, 8-8-1 is possible. With Garrett as OC, I think the Giants have a great shot at it. Strange never before happenings often follow Garrett around for some reason.

No....it’s the time of the year that Mickey is told to write another positive article...but to stick to the outline given to him.

Injuries happen to nearly all teams and some even go far in the playoffs. This excuse is really old.

dont be ignorant ughh,

really? no teams that lost 17 starters more then half on IR or most of the season at nearly every important position group goes far in the palyoffs..17 did you even watch we played with 3rd string unit last year..get over it..how did Shannahan do over in SF , hes supposed to be this new genius coach that should be drooled over and hes had 3 losing season of 4 in SF and made sb sure but has LOSING RECORD..why? mostly injuries', thats why..

what happened to BB over in NE? he lost far too many players and couldn't over come it, was below 500..

teams can over come 3-4 injuries to key players sometimes but no way to cover up that many injuries..smh

Lol
I didn’t read it
Just the post
I can’t listen to Fish because he simply can’t get to the point
And Mickey runs me nuts with some of his writing
But a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile

To win the super bowl you are right
But an average defense can win our division
I don’t think the most optimistic person here believes this draft built is a super bowl team just yet

The chiefs last year are a good example of just how many things have to go right to win a super bowl

Is that correct? We haven’t won a game since 2018 playoff game vs Seattle if we didn’t score 30 or more? That’s scary!
