5 seed in NFC is wrapped up

[ChronicCowboy]

It’s not wrapped up. Seattle Seahawks are a game back and own the tiebreaker if they beat us. I think we are overwhelming favorites for the 5 seed but it’s certainly not a wrap.

If we beat Washington and Seattle I’ll agree that 5 seed is ours and we can focus on winning the division.

 

[DoctorChicken]

We’re 2 games out with 7 games left.

It’s totally possible to still win the NFCE if we beat Philly in a few weeks.

Cowboys play Washington and Seahawks before they play the Eagles. Eagles currently have Chiefs, Bills and 49ers before we play. So how on earth is the division "wrapped up" or are you conceding to the 49ers?

ya these fans are a tripp

 

[ActualCowboysFan]

All of you guys talk about this stretch over the next 3-4 weeks Lolol. You conveniently leave off the the stretch after that

@ Mia
Detroit

Even if you somehow catch Philly between now and then, good luck maintaining it through that stretch

People who think they can accurately predict multiple games in advance are either delusional or millionaires. You can make a lot of money knowing the future so unclear why you’re spending time here instead of booking your flights to Vegas

Since you know so much about implied probability you would know that the odds of Dallas winning the division are slim. Which is what the original posts claims. Good to know we are in agreement. But maybe you aren’t as smart as you think you are.

Could swear I said exactly this two days ago.

Seattle has to play Phills, Dallas, and SFx2 in a 4 game stretch with a hurt geno good luck

They are. Its like they are so afraid to be hurt by this team they'd rather just straight up have a loser mentality.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

No way in Hell am I conceding the division or let alone playoff seeding in Week 11.

The NFL is a strange lady and there are many variables that can affect the final outcome. The injury prone Niners could lose key people or miss a big kick. The Eagles could get embarrassed 3 out of their next 4 games. We could keep rolling like a machine. The Lions have a ton of division games left, and could drop a few of those.

I remember a Dallas team in 2011 that had the playoffs all but locked up but dropped 4 out of their last 5.

There is still a lot of football to play

Thank you

Love our chances but a long way to go

Buffalo is not very good, Miami can't beat good teams, and Detroit barely beat Chicago

 

[JBS]

Oh look, a liar too.

Yes. I’m taking the slim chances and running w that. Which is what you told me to do. Derrrr

You: definitive statement
You: I didn’t make a definitive statement
You: Other people are dumb for reading my posts.

Finally something we can all agree on

DVOA has the Cowboys' chances of winning the division, going into tonight's game, at 27.4%. Obviously, they'll go way up or way down depending on tonight's outcome. But 27% just isn't so slim that you can discount it. And if the Chiefs win tonight, they'll be a heckuva lot more than slim.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

We match up best against Philly. We’ve been getting owned by San Fran every year, and we have no idea about Detroit. Best path to Super Bowl is NFC South, Philly, whoever is left.

 

[Eddie]

There's a good chance that both Dallas and Philly will have the same record by the time we play again.

Never play to lose.

 

[BrassCowboy]

As fans this is what we do but that doesn't mean the team doesn't belong because that's what us fans do.

to each his own.... just that the team itself should never lose a game for any reason, whether it be for a better position by means of whom they play, or for better draft pick. just not good philosophy. I would rather we just play who falls in our laps and win those games, if you cant win, then so be it. just like I would rather we play an opponent at full strength rather than be happy a player is injured.

 

[Cowboyny]

Cowboys won’t win the division. The 5 seed is basically wrapped up.

Looking ahead, best case scenario is lions get the 1 seed.

It’s literally better for us to lose to Detroit in the regular season if it helps them get the 1 seed

@nfc south winner followed by @detroit is by far best case scenario for our playoff road

These regular season games are borderline meaningless for us

Why is the division out of reach? If the Eagles lose another game and the Cowboys beat them, they will be tied with a few games to go.

Eagles have at KC, at Dallas, SFO, at Seattle and Buf on the next 5 weeks, that is more difficult then our schedule ahead. Not scared of Buffalo, nor playing Detroit at home. Miami is the one game that is a toss up, but they also have struggled against top competition.

Agreed except I think Buffalo is the scariest game left just due to the weather.
