BTB: Why the Dallas Cowboys are Firmly in the Mix for NFCE Crown

[rambo2]

You didn’t think it was 5-1-1, either lol…but my guess is that you didn’t think I was being literal.

My guess is that nobody else is 11 and 2.

...Im doubling down on it. Dont know if THIS is the year. But its going to be a good one.

We need to get either Breece Hall or Kenneth Walker if Blue can't win the starting job in Training Camp.

The RB room is trash.

We need a reliable running game.

You mean in year 10 is when he figures out how to take snaps under center as opposed to the shot gun?

this could take months into the season to perfect

 

[Streifenkarl]

Right.

But you can also speed up the process and I think they're trying to do that. Because, like I said, there's a window right now for some of our core, star veteran players.


Hopefully Jerry and McClay realize that window is right now. A few more good pieces and they could be dominant. Just a few more solid adds, likely preseason...or shortly after.

I think they need veterans similar to what we added with Hankins. They're going to wait and see though. I think more is to come and they also think now is sort of a window opening.

What window lol? How did Dak win all those games in 2016 and then sucked in the play offs?

He's always been what he is, no progress at all. A steal of a 4th Rd pick but no SB material. So why will it be different this season?

We love our guys. Best shape of our lives! This is our time!

NFCE crown, sure. If that's all we're playing for then yes, we're firmly in the mix for that. It's beyond the NFCE that's the issue though.

That's the new Super Bowl I guess.

 

[KJJ]

We’ll find out after week four or five whether we’re firmly in the mix. It usually takes about four or five games to figure out what kind of team you have. Anything less than three wins after week five and we’re in trouble.

 

[morat1959]

I don’t think we are remotely close but if by some miracle they are, whoop de do…..they’re not sniffing a playoff run much less a SB. Blind homers are the only fans who can’t see this.

 

[deerhunter11]

Take notes, Spagnola, and fellow "homer's." If you're going to write from a homer's perspective, this is how you do it.

At present moment, nobody seems to believe in the Cowboys, but they should. According to DraftKings sportsbook, the Cowboys are +190 to reach the playoffs, with only three other NFC teams below them. They’re also the odds-on favorite to finish third in the NFC East, well behind both the Eagles and Commanders when it comes to their odds to win the division.

Dak Prescott’s return is huge​

People have forgotten just how good the Cowboys are when Dak Prescott is under center. Specifically looking at divisional games, Prescott is 9-4 against the Eagles, 11-2 against the Commanders, and 13-2 against the Giants. Prescott’s only loss to Washington during the Mike McCarthy era was an odd regular-season finale that felt like the team went through the motions, while the quarterback hasn’t lost to the Giants since his rookie year.

Dallas will contend for the NFC East this season these coaches are going to have this team ready to play week in and week out.I will be shocked if this offense doesn't become potent pretty quick this season.They are going to be able to throw the ball and run the ball.The defense looks improved overall.

 

[deerhunter11]

Same. It's going to at least be fun to watch.

I think they have legit, young talent though. I mean, aside from Unc.

These coaches need to try to make things easy for Unc.If Dallas can establish the run , play action should be what the doctor ordered to keep Prescott ultra calm when it really matters.Then he can throw to these top receivers he has who can take it to house at any time.
