Shorty, although I’ve seen this meme a thousand times, it still makes me laugh, :laugh:

while i don't have a ton of confidence in the team overall, there's probably close to zero chance the D is mediocre
Against whom???

Against the bottom 1/3 of the league our defense we be outstanding.

Against the middle 1/3 third they will compete.

Against the top 1/3 the will get exploited.

Take a guess at what 1/3 makes the playoffs??!

Anything is possible. As Bryan Broaduss says, "The NFL is a strange lady", but no, no I do not think the Dallas Cowboys are poised for a Super Bowl run.

It is, of course, possible. The NFL is weird. The Cowboys aren't built to consistently contend in the way that a team like KC or SF are.

I believe there is one way this team goes to the Super Bowl this season, and it involves 2 perfect storms -

1 - Prescott goes on a 2012 Flacco-esque tear in the playoffs, playing out of his mind while also getting incredibly lucky.

2 - The Zimmer defense is improved in the run game and just as good at rushing the QB and forcing turnovers. Micah, Diggs, and those boys need to have stellar seasons.

If those happen, sure, this team can make a Super Bowl.
I was hoping someone would talk in terms of probabilities as opposed to the feigned certainty.

Asking if we are poised to make a SB run and if we can do it are two completely different questions.

Could we make a SB run? Sure. Its August, any team could in theory. Are we poised to do it? Absolutely not.

Yes they're poised for a Superbowl run. Just likenlast year.

They're also poised for a cataclysmic, publicly embarrassing, monumental playoff failure in the Wildcard Round. Just like last year.

Heeeerrreeeee we gooooooo !!!!!
