Confirmed! The Cowboys have as much a chance as any NFC team for the SB

The Panthers, the team that all the 'experts' picked as the surefire favorite might go 0-3. (Well, they made the field goal so 1-2 but still not looking like a dominant team.)

The NFC East, a tough division, 3 good teams with the Giants, Skins, and Eagles, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, but none of them appearing out of the Cowboys league.

The Bears play a good team and they look vulnerable, especially Rex Grossman.

Speaking of the good team they played, the Vikings are a sleeper of sorts this year, and will be tough with those strong lines but nothing the Cowboys can't handle.

Tampa Bay is meh. Seattle is 2-0 but has sputtered the entire time and the Cowboys already matched up pretty well against them last year.

I think the Falcons look like the only team that has a chance to beat us, and even then they're not a team that scares me.

Parity, gotta love it.

I don't know if it's confirmed, but you are dead on. If we play consistent ball from here on out..........

you never know!

once again, don't underestimate the Vikes.

They're a really dangerous team, I've been trying to tell people that since the pre-season.

In my mind, they've already got one wildcard slot locked up.

At the moment, none of them appear to be IN our league.

Philly and the Skin's both look like world beater's today..but you have to consider who they were up against....Niner's and the lame Texan's.

Giant's are getting owned...by a good nfc team in the Seahawk's. ouch!!!

right now the playoff teams look like:
Seattle
Philthy
Chicago
Minny
Dallas
Atlanta

Our biggest problem is that Seattle, Chicago, and Atl are going to have homefield advantage over us and I don't see us winning in Chicago or Seattle.

ehhh... not too sure about that. If you're talking crowd noise, Seattle is probably the loudest in the league, especially when they add the artificial noise ;). If you're talking weather in January, Chicago would probably be colder and windy, but it could just as easily be a cold rain in Seattle. And IMO Seattle's a better team. So if I had my druthers, I'druther play in Chicago than in Seattle.

both would be equally tough IMO, both have great home field advantages although both have different strengths. Seattle's their O and the Bears their D. Although then you also cant sleep on Seattle's D and the Bears O starting to look like a pretty good offense especially if they can get the running game going which you gotta believe it will with them having 2 talented backs in Jones and Benson. Both would be huge trouble if we had to play them in the playoffs at their place. we really have to try and get home field advantage on at least one of the two teams.

The NFL used to be ruled by legendary teams. The Packers. The Dolphins. The Steelers. The Vikings. Da Raiders. The 49ers. The Cowboys (of MULTIPLE decades).

Where are the legendary teams of today? The Team of the 21st Century's First Decade are the Patriots. In my mind, the only thing that remotely comes close to being considered legendary about New England has been Adam Vinateri's fist-pumping.

...oooh!

...aaah!

...wow!

not.

Interesting speculation but every one of our division foes could say similar things about us. Inconsistent...penalties...defensive lapses....you get the picture. Take care of business every week and the prize comes into focus.

- Seattle is as good as they were last year and better in a couple of areas.

- Chicago is far better than they were last year; that was a good game they played against a tough team in Minnesota

- Carolina is overrated I agree, but they are still a very good team.

- Atlanta is excellent, and while they appear one-dimensional on offense they can still pass. Their pass rush is the best in the conference right now, IMO.

- New York, despite getting spanked by the Seahawks yesterday, is explosive and will be very tough.

I think Dallas has a better chance than some and not as good as others. Based off what I have seen over the years it is the team that gets hot toward the end of the season who tends to make it all the way
