CBS Sports' Prisco picks every NFL game

[Az Lurker]

Those scores seem a little low, especially considering the numbers Dallas put up with a healthy Zeke and Tyron last year.

I agree.
Although we only scored 12 and 6 points the last two games with them,the momentum had been lost by them.

I say the average goes up this year

 

[MWH1967]

If they go 7-9 which is possible at this point. They will be the best 7-9 team out there. Dallas needs a stud DT,A house hold name safety and a receiver that scares people. Dallas also needs Dak to be his best self. Luck and growth changes it from 7-9 to 11-5. I know that's a swing but, its a process.

 

[TWOK11]

This team is far too talented for 7-9 to be acceptable. Barring a ton of injuries, that would put me firmly in the “fire Garrett” camp for the first time.

Sweeping the Giants/Commanders and beating the Colts, Bucs, Lions and Titans alone gets us to 8 wins and those are all games we should win on talent alone. 7 wins we beat nobody of similar or superior talent and dropped a game we shouldn’t.

 

[PAPPYDOG]

I have them 6-10. Can't expect much with this offense. It's borderline pathetic.

Most predictable boring offense in the NFL due to the limited talents of Dak....1st down RUN 2nd down RUN 3rd down check-down 4th down Punt.....zzzzz....someone wake me up when we get a Qualified QB under center......6 wins sound about right give or take.....

3. L-- Cowboys 17, at Seattle 21,
4. W--at Cowboys 24, Lions 17

15. W__Cowboys 20, at Colts 19
16. W__at Cowboys 26, Bucs 13
17. L__Cowboys 21, at Giants 23

I think thats a pretty good list. I would have us beating the skins both times and then pulling out another game or two. Tough, tough schedule.

One could argue that the Giants have more talent. And EVERY team we play has a better head coach.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

12-4

Winning road games at ALL of Falcons, Panthers, Texans, Seahawks, and Panthers.

Sign me up for that, roycaice

We are a good road team lol.

 

[robjay04]

We went 2-4 in division in 2011 on our way to 8-8. The Giants and Eagles swept us.
We went 2-4 in 2006 (9-7) and 2004 (6-10).
We went 1-5 in 2011 (5-11) and 2-4 in 2000 (5-11).

“Many years”

I think 7 years qualifies as many years, especially in football years.

We have what...maybe a long snapper still on the team from 2011?

 

[Captain-Crash]

I got my panties all in a wad over these predictions....

 

[Techsass]

Doesn't look like he believes in our receiver by committee scheme. We only score 30 points once - and lose that game. To be fair he only has us giving up 30 points twice.

 

[pitt33]

Barring catastrophic injuries to the cow bell players, I see the schedule playing out as follows:

• We drop the opener to Carolina. I just think its going to be a tough game even if we had more talent than what is currently available.
• We get swept by the Eagles. They're better. Can't state it anymore simply than that.
• We split with the Commanders and Giants. I believe both teams have gotten better. Especially the Giants...they almost have to be better based on the law of averages.
• We get roughed up by the NFC South. In a big way. Losses to the Saints, Falcons and the aforementioned Carolina game.
• Jacksonville will be a real test for this club. I don't think they will score a lot but I don't see the Cowboys offense doing jack squat against that defense.
• They split with Houston and Tennessee with them doing just enough to squeak out a tough road victory at Houston. Could be the best game they play all year.
• Week 2 win on the road at Seattle. They just lost too much on the defensive side of the ball.
• Tampa and the Colts should be wins.......should be.
• Lions game will be very entertaining with Dallas winning a close one.

Let the games begin.

 

[dfense]

I like how he has Seattle losing to Denver and Chicago but then beating Dallas to start 1-3.

 

[The Fonz]

I have them 6-10. Can't expect much with this offense. It's borderline pathetic.

you sure not 5-11?

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

Oddly enough he has us winning a few games I think we will lose and losing a few games I think we will win.

But in the end I think the W/L record is about right...7/9 - 9/7

He obviously doesn't understand the Home/Away dynamic for the Cowboys. 1-7 on the road and 6-2 at home? That's backwards as hell.

 

[BigD_95]

not sure where all the low win totals are coming from. I think Dallas has a very good chance to be a very good team this year. Great O-line and RB. Defense that can get pressure. 2 very good corners and very good LB's. I know there are holes but most teams have them. Dallas has a good core group to build around at the most important positions to win. O-line - running game - defensive pressure

Also I think Dak will have a way better year then last year and he also keeps drives going with his feet

Maybe I'm drinking the kool aid but I think this is a 11 win team.

 

[jterrell]

We will win more than 2 divisional games.

Without checking, I would guess it has been many years since we had a losing divisional record.

Even when we went 5-11, I think 4 of those were divisional games.

We went 5-1 last year so yea we aren't going 2-4, LOL.
We are simply better than NYG or WAS. I'd say 3-3 minimum.

 

[jterrell]

my take: 10-6

1. W--Cowboys 23, at Panthers 16
   
2. W--at Cowboys 24, Giants 10
3. W-- Cowboys 27, at Seattle 21,
4. L--at Cowboys 21, Lions 24
5. L--Cowboys 17, at Texans 23
6. L--Jaguars 23, at Cowboys 22
7. W--Cowboys 31, at Commanders 16,
8. bye
9. W--at Cowboys 21, Titans 13
10. L--Cowboys 24, at Eagles 33,
11. L__Cowboys 23, at Falcons 24
12. W__at Cowboys 28, Commanders 19
13. W__at Cowboys 31, Saints 28
14. L__at Cowboys 24, Eagles 28
15. W__Cowboys 26, at Colts 10
16. W__at Cowboys 26, Bucs 13
17. W__Cowboys 27, at Giants 13

Think Prisco particularly underrates this young defense which was stellar the final month last year.
Don't see us losing to either NYG or WAS. But WAS is a possible 1-1 and we could steal one versus an aging PHI team later in the year when injuries pile up.

 

[GMO415]

7-9 with most losses occuring the beginning of the season. Uh....was EzE suspended again????

Absurd this team goes from 9-7 to 7-9 with a healthy EzE and a much improved defense.
