How good are we?

 

[burmafrd]

good enough I think to go a long way. 12-4 if the line plays well and we have no serious injuries.

 

[Doomsday101]

If we can stay relatively healthy I think Dallas has as good of a chance as any in the NFC. I agree with those who have some questions about the O-line but if that unit can come together then I like our chances.

 

[gbrittain]

I think we are as good as our O Line and Bledsoe will take us. I do not see a cap on how good we can be.

Our special teams will be top notch this year with the addition of Vanderdude and Skyler Green.

Our defense was top 10 last year and that is taking into account that it was their first year in the 3-4. I expect considerable improvement from the D this year.

On the offensive side it is like I said all on Drew Bledsoe and the O line.

I am optimistic, but the line will be good. Remember BP said the line was fine until Flo got hurt. I also remember we were averaging close to thirty a game until he got hurt. RT is upgraded and I was no longer a fan of LA. He was lazy and slow and missed a lot of blocks. It dont matter how strong you are if you cant put on someone. I believe this line will trap and pull more and our pass blocking will be greatly improved!

I agree with you on that one.

As long as the Boys can stay healthy, I think they will win the division. But it seems like staying healthy has been a big issue for the Boys over the years. There is no question the talent is there. Hopefully Flo will be back 100%.

 

[Portland Fanatic]

I really think this defense will not allow many points on a week to week basis, so I expect us to be in every game...I like the infusion to special teams. I also think that the defense will cause even more turnovers to put us in better scoring positions.

I'm thinking at least 11-5 or better.

 

[MS17]

Looks like STs and the defense are improved significantly with the additions. Signing Vanderjagt makes a lot of us breathe easier. If this OL pans out and performs well, the Cowboys can be a factor in the post season, or the "tournament" as BP used to call it. As always, injuries tell the tale. Got to stay healthy to win the NFC East.

 

[Eddie]

We will be fighting for the division until the end.

10-6.
