Bottom Line: We continue to play like this, we're looking at 6-10.

Playing the way we have for the past 3-4 games, this is how our schedule will play out. Something has to change that will allow us to: 1) commit fewer penalties, 2) cause more turnovers 3) execute better on offense.

Atlanta - Loss
Seattle - Loss
Philadelphia - Loss
Green Bay - Loss
Washington -Win
Oakland -Win
New York Giants - Loss
San Diego - Loss
New Orleans - Loss
Washington - Win
Philadelphia - Loss

Anyone who thinks we're looking at 9-7, I'd like to know where they see the additional 3 wins coming from. Don't take Seattle and Green Bay lightly.

I can see some additional wins with Felix back and healthy, but can't really count on him staying that way for long. I think he's our only hope at this point.

Is seattle suddenly a power house? I don't recall that.

We will finish with a winning record, we will goto the playoffs. Maybe we go with Austin and RW11 and Felix come back and add a huge spark. Maybe Romo feels an overtime win (when nothing but what you do NOW matters) is a big game.

If you can't enjoy a win, you are wasting your sundays. A win is a win.

I can honestly say that this win was enjoyable for about 30 seconds, the time it took for the Austin play to die down. I watched the game with my kids, which is never a waste of a Sunday.

The handwriting is on the wall here. I hope I'm dead wrong, but I don't see this team making the playoffs, but I love your optimism. Maybe if Felix can come back after the bye and stay healthy.

If they will eliminate the penalties that in itself would fix alot of things that impair this team.

please enjoy it and let us all enjoy it longer than this because it will be 2 weeks till we get to do it all over again so we have plenty of time to look at everything and come to our respective conclusions but right now we need to enjoy a win cause it may be(maybe not?) a while before our next one especially if it goes the way you predict

TonyS, we need to improve greatly to have any chance at a winning record much less the playoffs. The shrills will beat their chest, but this team was a mess for much of the game. Austin saved the day.

In every game, we've either won or had a chance to win until the final few seconds. If we continue to do that, we won't finish 6-10.

No disrespect to the OP but this thread is really dumb. I feel you and I see where you're going but the NFL's landscape changes every week. Teams develop and get stronger some get weaker. Injuries etc... let's not play the this is a win this isn't game. It's just dumb!

Goodness GRACIOUS!

We're a freak ball-bounces-off-Witten's-back-butt-leg-foot-"interception" away from leading the NFC East.

Add a missed Miles Austin red zone route @ Denver away from being 5-0

I'd agree with your assessment if they were getting blown out;

but face it, Dallas on BAD DAYS still had chances to win the Giants & Broncos game.

I'm waiting to see Dallas on a GOOD DAY before I make any grand pronouncements

(plus, how on earth is seattle a contender now? even if i assumed the wheels fell off, i'd be confident giving us seattle, either atlanta/san diego, and one of the philly games as a W to finish 9-7 minimum!!!!)

They beat Jacksonville 41-0, and everyone's scared now. Plus they have those green unis.

There is no way this team wins 6 games this year.

After todays loss to the Chiefs we proved we have no heart.

I'm sure everyone would be undefeated playing the game of "if's". And that interception was due to a horrendous throw.
