You think we improved or stayed the same since last year?
Definitely improved especially on defense. Zimmer will make sure that happens. I also believe the offense will be better. Dak played lights out in MM’s first year as OC and with development of Ferguson, Tolbert and an infusion of some monsters on the offensive line, they should be better. At least I’m hopeful. Still big questions at DT and RB that need to be answered.

How would you grade an improvement?

It is a fair question.

Is it strictly based off wins and losses? Stats? Personal opinion? More Pro Bowlers?

If we have a significantly tougher schedule,
which we do, and we had a cake walk last year, How are you going to compare the two seasons?

By quality wins, instead of total wins.

Is it possible for us to improve and be a better team than last year, but still lose the Divison to the Eagles?

It will still comes down QB vs. defenses.

Will our defense be good enough to contain those offenses. And will our offense be better against the better defenses.
Especially in the playoffs.

We know the history. So can thy improve that.

I disagree! The team with the better QB usually wins the game.
Usually means nothing.

The better team typically wins. Your missed perception of the winning team automatically having the better QB is a fallacy.

I would take regular season Dak over 95% of these guys.
Yes, but we have been spoiled with QBs like Staubach and Aikman..... a long, long time ago.

Very hard to find the next true FQB, but many fans that enjoy 12-5 and just knocking at the door of post season play and staying relevant are defined here as the pro Dak allegiance.

Those that are willing to take a dip in regular season performance have seen all they need to see to determine that Daks ceiling was yesterday, and are willing to roll the dice now, are defined here as the anti-Dak allegiance.

Both sides of the fan base have a legitimate argument, this coming from an anti-Daker for those not paying attention, and I have spent many hours running the scenarios through my mind, and I have finally come to the conclusion that due to the entirely botched contract given to Dak that there is absolutely no way out that doesn't leave a major scar.

Jerry and Son are shaking like two hookers in Church over this insane debacle.

What an incredibly horrible situation that they painted themselves into a corner with, and there is almost know way out.

Those of you who can not admit that Troy played for the best team money could buy and the arguable best team ever assembled is mind baffling.

Troy did not carry the Cowboys to the SB.

Our 90's SB teams had very little to no weaknesses.

You don’t know if the schedule is tougher. Every year, teams are different. There were numerous folks here who said last years schedule was tough when it came out. It’s a symptom of always being negative. You end up always being negative. Not talking about you necessarily.

Where are you even going with this?
Did you only read the first line of my post?

Peeps get overly trusting in stats and early reports, and nobody knows at this point who is going to be strong or weak.
Just early projections like throwing darts at a dart board from the other side of the bar.

We were also spoiled with Romo and now Dak.

Even GM Jethro stated his worst regret was not winning a SB with Romo. He may very well end up changing that to with Dak.

I was talking Lombardi's my friend, and I don't care about Jethros regrets.

QB's my friend don't win SB's by themselves.

And Troy was an amazing Bus Driver.
