Are we better?

[cowboybish]

Are we a better team than a year ago? Will it make any difference? Will we be an 8-9 or 9-8 team? OR a 12-5 team OR a 5-12 team?

 

[kskboys]

If the upgrades and changes on D work out, much much better. If the don't, no.

It's really that simple.

 

[garyo1954]

We're better just because everyone is healthy.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Light years better.

Better coaching. Better players. Better health. Full off season.

10-7 or better.

 

[CowboysDrew]

DiNucci, Gilbert or Dalton aren't starting so clearly massively worse.

Only time will tell
Defense is the key.

 

[Tangle_Foot]

We are the most valuable franchise in the sports world. We are the defending Forbes champion, and it's been that way for some time now.
You guys are just nitpicking


Better!!!

 

[cowboyec]

yes.
with our injured back...particularly our franchise QB and 2 best off linemen(Tyron and Zack).
with a new dc who i think will try to normalize our defense.
with some young lions on defense...particularly micah parsons.
with some f/a additions at key spots who seem competent...s damontae kazee,lb keanu neal,dt brent urban.
and with a real off-season with football stuff.
yes.
this team is better.
how much better...we'll find out.
but it is better.

I find that an overly obvious answer.

Getting Dak back and 3 great lineman should help.

In addition to improving the defense, this team needs to get tougher too- both physically and mentally. An improved defense and a tougher overall team, they can be much better. Being a good football team requires toughness. I haven’t seen a tough Cowboys team in a while.

 

[JoeKing]

I think there is no question we are better.

 

[Cowpolk]

Yes

Better!!!

Thank you, Stephen.

 

[Vanilla2]

Will be a lot better if the d can just hold the other teams to 3 rather than 7’s

 

[75boyz]

You mean advancing past the divisional playoff round better?
Or all the other important stuff this message board is concerned with?

TO and now CeeDee both said it.

Git ya popcone reddy.

 

[stiletto]

Dak back for a full season + a Defense that can't be worse. Obvious things. Just the standard "barring injury disclaimer". If Dak plays all 17 games and Quinn reforms the D, it should be at least a much more enjoyable season. Could never say Championship but it should be far and above the tripe we had to go through last year....damn...

Lol, sure wish we were Champs on the field!

 

[Pompey-Cowboy]

D could not be worse than last season.
O could not be less healthy than last season.
Better.

 

[817Gill]

Just by virtue of health we are better than last year. Your starting QB and Tackles back automatically makes you better.
