Cowboys chances at a wild card

I think it looks great. We desperately need a top 5 pick. If 3 QB's go early, how can GM Jethro screw up a top 5 pick?

I think a top 5-7 pick is in our future, even with Quinnen being added today. We just finished the easy part of our schedule and we are not good. I realistically think we may win 3 more games at best. I agree, I don’t think Jerry, McClay and company would screw up a top 5 pick.

Three more wins would be another tradegy of errors, just like last season 6-10-1 is basically the first 7-10 team to draft.

That would put us at pick 12 again.

Have to forget about the wild card. More likely to have a philthy collapse and win the division.

That Fat Lady hasn't sung yet, but trust me she is warmed out and ready to go. I expect us to be eliminated from the playoffs about 3 weeks before the season ends. I think our best case scenario is 7 wins. The schedule is brutal with the exception of the Commanders, Raiders and the Giants. We will be big underdogs in every other game.

You and Jeruh are the only 2 people on the planet that still think the Cowboys can make the playoffs.

Adding 1 impact player is not for this year, and I see 3 wins, maybe 4 if we win one at home. The focus should now be on 2026 to ensure our 1 in '27 is bottom of the draft

Eagles have a tough schedule as well

If the Cowboys somehow go 7-1 the rest of the season and end up 10-6-1, Philadelphia would have to go from a 6-2 start to a 4-5 finish for Dallas to catch them

Philly still has both Commander games, Bears, Raiders, Cowboys, Chargers. It’s more likely Dallas wins 7 more games than it is Philly loses 5 more

Carolina Chicago have better chances plus that stacked NFC West . You can look at players like LB Wilson & DT Williams as down payments on a better second half and 2026

3 wins max the rest of the season. 6-10-1 probably puts us in the top 12. Honestly I’d prefer we win 4 or 5 and get a top 8 pick. Hard to screw up a pick that high.

shows just how big 3 plays have been:
1. Ceedee's drop vs PHI
2. Settle for FG in OT at GB4
3. Settle for GB at CAR9

If they can score or convert TDs on those 3 instances... that's 3 wins. They're sitting at 6-2 and 1st place in the division going into the bye

For all the offensive production... settling for FGs has hurt this team.
