I agree. This team should be 3-1 after 4 games.
it is a mistake to underestimate any team, they will play better when they play dallas.
last year a lowly TB team beat us.
Chicago looks real bad , but they will be up for the cowboy game. it is sun nite game and they are desperate to win a game, and would
love to upset dallas.
The only way to beat a bad team easily, is to get up by 17 or more early and they may fold, but with jg, all our games are close, so
I dont expect to jump out to a big lead.
And if we do then we have had comebacks on us even when romo was the qb.

So there are no easy sure thing wins for the cowboys.

The Cowboys shouldn't overlook anyone. They are not a super talented team and are coming off a 4 win season. Although it will be a major disappointment if they are not 3-1 in a little over two weeks.

This team/franchise does not handle success well, so it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't take care of business though.

For some unknown reason, seeing Da Bears with the 30th rated offense sorta appeals to me . . . ;) (wink, wink.)

Brian Hoyer and Blaine Gabbert...........enough said. They are exactly negative reasons why we shouldn't 3-1 in 2 weeks.

When will offenses and defenses stop being ranked by yardage? That's so violently stupid, it hurts.

"violently stupid"? jesus christ that is beyond hyperbole. Actually it is also dead wrong. It is "violently" more logical, lol, to rank by yardage. This "the bottom line is points" nonsense is just dumb. If a team drives the ball 10 yards and scores 7 one one drive and on the next drive goes 85 yards and gets 3, the second drive was a more productive offense. That's what you want you offense to do, move the ball as much as you can and eat time as much as you can. THAT is the judge of the quality of the offense. The points come if you keep doing that. Points is as much a result of turnovers and how the funny shaped ball bounces and especially where your defense and kicking team sets up the offense to start a drive. The only way to truly judge the quality of your offense and whether they are executing, blocking, making holes, hitting holes, getting open, throwing accurately and catching is yards baby. Now stop with the ridiculous hyperbole, even if you were right, which you weren't.

Complete drivel.

Teams rack up hundreds of yards at the end of games when they're down by three touchdowns. It's common for losing teams to win the yardage battle because of this.

Offensive and defensive yardage doesn't account for punt returns, kickoff returns, interception returns, fumble returns, pass interference penalties, any penalties, etc.

Done.

Alshon Jeffrey was limited in practice today with a knee injury.
