According to ESPN Insider KC Joyner Cowboys will decline

[Bleu Star]

Our Dallas Cowboys are chosen along with the Pats as two playoff teams from last year to hit a sharp decline this year.

Regarding the RBs, Skip of course has an incredible amount of faith in Randle. He sees Randle stepping easily from a 5-10 carry per game RB to someone that can carry 20 times.

Stephen A feels the Cowboys are an accident waiting to happen. He endorses Joyner's view of both teams and harper on what he considers a problem at RB that we didn't address.

That said, when challenged, Stephen A did admit that he sees us winning the NFCE.

My take?

If our team was considered a 10 piece pie, I feel as though 9 of those 10 pieces are rock solid incredible for the pallette. That once piece though... I feel it has the potential to speak loudly over the course of a grueling season. There are so many questions around that once piece that have been bolstered with early injuries. If we can somehow salvage our early plan at RB by swallowing our pride and going out there to get a proven back to compliment the potential in Randle, we very well may be hitting the chat room well into that first week of February.

Im interested to hear Joyners logic as most of his opinions are based on metrics. Or has he gone full Talking Head?

KC Joyner, your 15 minutes of fame are up.

I would say his 15 minutes of fame has lasted for quite some time and will continue to last. Perhaps it's in super slow mo. He has quite the resume. Very analytical mind...

A few months ago Stephen A smith was saying we were the favorites.

Good point

Yeah. I particularly remember that. Screw him. I knew he would flip flop. I'm more interested in thoughts on Joyner's angle.

Inability to protect the secondary? OK then...

Don't.

Joyner's bold prediction last year was that the Bills would make the playoffs.

I don't get that either.

This is the best collection of DE's the Cowboys have had in quite a while.

They should be able to rush the passer.

Lol exactly

They went 9-7. He wasn't <too> far off.

It's as if he's seeing the exact opposite of what I and everyone here is. Or maybe he's just not looking.

I wonder if he knows what pass rushers we even have, somehow I doubt it.

How are the pats going to decline, has anyone seen their schedule? Sign me up for that any day of the week and twice on sunday.

 

[ActualCowboysFan]

He's saying that the running game won't be able to protect the secondary. But he also says that the team will face top Wide Receivers and included Carolina and Philadelphia in that group so I think some of his formulas might be off.

And btw, he picked the Cowboys to make the playoffs last season and picked them to win the Superbowl before the playoffs started. Just FYI.

He also applauded their decision to not reup Murray while crediting Philly for signing him so he looks like a typical ESPN clickbaiter at times.

 

[HardHittin'Witten]

No sense in watching the season. See y'all next year.

According to ESPN Insider KC Joyner.

Magic 8 ball was little cloudy.

Could be two factors...

Everyone in that division has improved. Buffalo has a lot going for it on both sides of the ball- except at QB.

Miami has put together a decent team and the have a QB with better potential than anything Buffalo has.

And the Jets still have a very good front 7.

You combine all that with Brady missing at least as couple games-- yeah I can see them declining.
