Cowboys are still firmly a third-place team in our own division

We will beat the giants and Philly both in Dallas.

We're good. We probably won't win the division with Philly's lead and easy schedule. We should stack 11 or 12 wins and be the top WC team.
Which likely means our first and only playoff game is in Lambeau because I don't see Kirk Cousins and the typically disappointing Vikings keeping it up all regular season

12-5 Cowboys vs 9-8 Packers and GB gets home field and Dak can't play in the cold.

Eagles 6-0
Giants 6-1
Cowboys 5-2

WFT 3-4


in that order.

Third place and not climbing.

What is your opinion on this?

Doesnt really matter, we'd make the play-offs and on our day we've the ability to beat anyone in the NFC home or away.

I could see 4 being possible
no, WFT blew too many easy ones early. They needed to beat the Titans and Detroit and lost those that they should have won because Wintz sucks in the clutch.

Ultimately the Niners and Rams will both get it together sooner than later. They will get 2 teams in out west. The North gets 1 or 2 but I don't believe in kirk cousins at all. We get 3 in. There are 7 total playoff teams. The South is lousy top to bottom and the best team might win the division at 8-9.

At this relatively-early stage, the NFC is the Eagles, then everybody else...unless & until the former team falters.

Based on current events, I like the DAL schedule the rest of the way. Giants/Eagles meet twice, we get both of those teams at home. Vikes present a challenging matchup, but the Packers are on their heels.

This horse race ain't over yet. Not by a long shot.

Dak has a win against the Packers at GB though

Pretty much why I said last week that we need to win on both Thanksgiving and Xmas eve if we want to win this division and get a home game.

Ya know….or win three road playoff games in one season just to get to a SB when they haven’t won one at all since 1992, and all of nine in team history.

Packers aren't making the playoffs this year and if your scenario did come true, we'd be massive favourites to win.

in mid October on an unusually balmy day for Wisconsin. Temps in the 70s that day. Just like here in Grand Rapids which isn't far from Green Bay latitude wise and we're having balmy October days

Same can't be said for January
