The Chargers will be every bit of a challenge as the Raiders, if not more.

This new defense starting the season against Brady and then Herbert will be quite a test. Herbert had a fine rookie season and should only be better this year.

I think so too. I like Herbert and actually think the Chargers will be a challenge but I believe the Cowboys will win that game.

Yep

I consider a good defense more valuable than two games.

Unless the defense has drastically improved

I agree, if everything falls in place. I feel they will go 8 and 9

Well this is a good spot to post this lol
this is a good example of all the false article /video names, as marcus did not say these things in the video.
One guy said it was a horrible time to play the bucs, as our defense needs time to gel, and that brady is a hard 1st game.
Marcus Spears believes that Cowboys will win over Bucs in Week 1, Dak outplays Tom Brady

Dallas could possible beat any of the teams, including kc, but it will require good coaching and game plans and play calling, play design etc.
I dont think dallas coaches are up to it, but maybe they surprise me.
I do think the defense will get better as season rolls along.
The offense will continue to be great and awful in same games lol.

Brady almost always starts slow and the Bucs will be celebrating last year. We have a good chance.

stiletto · Jun 19, 2021

This is literally the first season in a loooong time where I have no clue how this team is going to play. After last season, that is probably a very good thing....

If and when they get to playoffs again, they have to play teams outside the div! the good teams lol outside the div.
they need 6-8 wins outside the div to be a good team.

Now look at the schedule and tell me which 6-8 teams they will beat outside the div lol.

Dallas can count on 3 maybe 4 div wins, but the most would be 6.
6+6 = 12 wins. 4+6= 10 wins

So aside from div games, do you see 6 wins?
If they cant win outside the div, they either wont make playoffs, or they will be one and done.
2021 Cowboys schedule

1: at Buccaneers
2: at Chargers
3: Eagles
4: Panthers
5: Giants
6: at Patriots

7: Bye

8: at Vikings
9: Broncos
10: Falcons
11: at Chiefs
12: Raiders (Thanksgiving)
13: at Saints
14: at Washington
15: at Giants
16: Washington
17: Cardinals
18: at Eagles
I see 6-7 potential wins, outside div, but not sure they can do it. Big maybe.

I ask you to look back prior to the 2014 season as proof of how foolish what you are trying to do is.

MoistMayonnaise · Jun 19, 2021

I think we go 8-9 but have no idea where the wins and losses fall. We are so inconsistent week to week picking games is almost meaningless and we don't even have a good home field advantage.

Bleh!

It's really hard to answer the question
As how good of a defense are we talking?
Realistically we might go from awful to average

I see a little better
Again it really depends on the defense

lukin2006 · Jun 19, 2021

You are going to be disappointed again like almost every season since ‘95. As long as Jones insist that he’s a GM there will be no super bowl…and if we make the playoffs I’d be surprised.

I am not a Cam fan at all, but didn't they also have a bunch of starters opt out last season?

yes several did, and cam will have full off season, and they have mac.
I think they will be better, how much though I dont know.

cristglo · Jun 20, 2021

3: Eagles
4: Panthers- Win
5: Giants
6: at Patriots- Win Off back on track and we were been Humbled by the chargers and now were on a spree

7: Bye

8: at Vikings- Win
9: Broncos- Win even if they get Aaron we win
10: Falcons-Win This is because the players want to win for Dan
11: at Chiefs Lose man but it will be close
12: Raiders (Thanksgiving) Win

Im good with a step in the right direction, and considering that we are at the bottom of the hill it better be a step up or the equipment manager will need to pack some shovels for game day.

I would be shocked if within 14-18 range, but not surprised if finishing around 22,, just keeping it real.

Mediocre is the word I'd use. They might not outright cost us games like they did last year but they won't really win us any games either. With our top 3-5 offense, they just need to not be terrible.

Jfconrow · Jun 20, 2021

I see them winning all the out of div games except week 1 vs Tampa. I think the Saints on Thanksgiving will be close. I’m thinking they make the playoffs, the Browns, Bills, and Titans scare me this year outside of the obvious Chiefs and Buccaneers..

Batman1980 · Jun 20, 2021

Browns and Bills don't scare me and Titans are 1 dimensional until proven otherwise.

Look at schedule and tell me which 6 teams they will beat outside the div
