Are the Cowboys safe from being caught by Philly in the division?

[CowboysFanSince88]

The League will make sure one nfc east team catch the cowboys to make things interesting in January. When has the NFC east ever been won 2 or 3 weeks before the end of season?

 

[charron]

No they are not safe. Untill it is mathematically impossible they can not afford to let up. Now it's unlikely but it's possible we lose these next 2. Their schedule is fairly easy and they almost always play us tough so let's not take anything for granted.

 

[KJJ]

We’re not safe at all we may have already played our best football of the season. Could be a struggle the rest of the way.

 

[TheHerd]

They catch a big break today in a game they could have easily lost playing the Saints without Kamara and their two starting OTs.

They'll all be back against us

if they lose thursday then things are gonna sure as hell get interesting.

Does it matter? This team isn't going anywhere in the playoffs. Not quite ready yet

 

[JMPearson]

Nope

The division race is far from over. Eagles have a cake schedule and we've looked completely inept in 2 of the last 3 games.

If the Cowboys lose to Oaklandon Thursday, which is possible since we will probably again be without much of our starting defensive front, no Cooper, no Lamb and who knows with Smith................... there is officially a race in the NFCE.

If it happened it wouldn't matter because the team would be total garbage anyway.

I personally don't think that the Cowboys need to worry about our division but if Philly wins and we lose were only 2.5 games ahead with the Raiders and saints coming through. While Philly has the Saints, Giants and Jets.
Hopefully this team doesn't lose focus going forward because we all talked a lot of smack. Lol.

Not worried.

 

[jazzcat22]

No they are not safe.
Dak will have more games like today as well as the Denver game,
The defense still sucks just not as bad.

This is 2 of 3 games this team looked like they were not prepared and out of sync.
Regardless of how many players they were missing.

 

[mldardy]

We have a game in hand and play one team with a winning record the rest of the season. Stop.

 

[Preoccupied]

I dont want to have to look over my shoulder at Philly....

 

[jhj7098]

Washington and Philly both playing way better than Dallas right now

No and the deadskins are a threat too

For everyone else that said 'Nope' here's a few more nope, nope, nope

 

[freemanjc19]

We play them last. Each year we play the last game against the eagles for something. This team is not getting the #1 seed.

 

[Mk2_Cowboys]

As a general rule of thumb the last 25 years , If Jerry and Stephen Jones built the roster and hired the coaches no lead is ever safe. I’m half expecting the last game of the season against the Eagles to be for the division.

you’re half expecting wrong

 

[Beast_from_East]

I think the division is safe, too big of a hole for Philly to climb out of.

With that being said, if we limp into the playoffs we wont last very long.

We either get hot and start stringing together some wins to build momentum for the playoffs or we play .500 ball or worse down the stretch and get a first round arse kicking from either the Rams or Arizona.
