A 3 game win streak and all will be well

[Jipper]

Yes i know we need to start with winning 1, but if you look at the next 3 games there is no reason this team can't be 4-2 after 6 games which is where many of us had them.

Hou is 0-3, always a tough game for some reason but they are not a good team and their offense sucks (zero run game) - as long as our offense is able to move the ball the defense should be fine.

Tampa is 0-3 - at home, huge prime time game to get above 500, should be the easiest of the 3 as they are without Baker, our defense should look good here

GB is 1-2 - in GB -toughest of the 3 games but the GB defense has been really bad esp against ATL last week and their run game is non-existant - again should be the stronger team on paper in the matchup



These next three games can help the defense gel, hopefully get/stay healthy and allow the offense to open things up. There is a real possilbity this team can make a nice early season turn from the challenges they have seen and be two games over 500 by the game against Philly.

The path is there, it is setup, now can they get it done.

All are winnable games.
Then even the Eagles game looks winnable.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Yep. Beat the bad teams and all is well...until you actually play a good team.

There were things in the Ravens game that can be built on, the D showed flashes so maybe just maybe there is some life on that side of the ball.

or all losses. Sad, with this D its truly possible.. see 2026 7 games won with the same offense.

be back near 100% healthy on the short week bucs game, that can help a lot. a lot of guys are near ready now. fresh legs on short week..

ravens were considered a no-win blowout and we had them, says we can hang with any team if the D shows up bit better..

Just looking at the league the first 3 weeks there sure aren’t very many good teams that’s for sure. SF, KC, Buffalo and that’s really about it.

We bullied the Ravens that game - that is something you rarely ever see from Dallas. That's what stood out to me. Yeah, the failure at the end of the game was horrific, but Dallas should have won that game by being the bigger bully. If they play like that the rest of the season, they'll be fine.

They lost Smith for some time

SF probably looks the best right now....but their WR room is pretty bleak. Not sure if they can keep it up.

KC should have lost to the Colts and played close with a horrible Miami team
Buffalo played 3 fairly close games with an 0-3 Texans, 0-3 Chargers and a Detroit team that hasn't look all that great.

Wow I didn't see that crazy

Parity is as high as ever these days, not worried about playing “a good team” and folding as we just were stride for stride with Bmore.

As posters above have mentioned, not much great in the league right now. A lot of average to good so no reason we can’t compete weekly (if the defense picks up).

I can see at worse -5-5 at the 10 game mark with 7 to go and maybe they get rolling..

at best 7-3.

relistically 6-4

id be good with 6-4 and finding our stride late for run. similar to was it 2023 when they played very well down the stretch while the 10-0 eagles went 1-6 and we took the division....

doesn't make it true but saw it,..

This is exactly right. Winning last week would have really helped because there are some brutal games ahead. But getting to 4-2 and the perspective of the Dallas Cowboys is much different than where we sit today at 1-2.

 

[TequilaCowboy]

Sure they look like "winnable" games", until they actually play them. You all know better than to count your chickens before they get to Popeye's. Dallas is notorious for laying those eggs. I will count them once they win them. The offense needs to be more consistent and play the way they are getting paid, especially in the red zone. The defense needs to play as a team and smarter. Make some key stops early during the game to allow to play in front.

BTW, BS will be watched closely on his play calling and clock management moreso now.....no time to screw up again.

WR DaVonte Smith?
