Giants 2007?

Beat 9-7 Tampa in Tampa
Beat 13-3 Dallas with Romo
Beat 13-3 Green Bay in -1 F in Green Bay with Brett Favre
Beat 16-0 New England with Tom Brady

2010 Packers?

We have two games to play, at home.

Yep. That Giants team got red hot at the right time. What a playoff run they had. Toughest of all time.

The number 2 seed in the NFC has five losses. Our road is ours to control.

Let's hope the Monday after the SB
This is where Colin was wrong.

Best part of his show. lol

 

[Thetriplets22]

What a moron for counting out the Giants

 

[Jake]

Cowherd makes his living by being provocative. Talking about the Cowboys is good business right now. Nothing to see here.

 

[T-RO]

Makes me simultaneously regurgitate and tear-up just a little to watch these guys pimping for people to pay attention to them so they can continue their 0.1 ratings, and avoid doing anything actually substantive with their careers.

The premise assumes nothing else matters to the success of a team but the QB and the head coach.

So shallow.

I thought it was entertaining. I like the prospect of facing challenges.

So if it's the Pack they would have to face the 1 Giants 2.Cowboys 3Falcons/Seahawks 4 Pats

So if it's the Giants they would have 1Pack 2Boys 3Falcons/Seahawks 4 Pats
So if it's the Falcons they would have 1Sea/Det 2Boys/Pack/Giants 3Pats
So fits it's Sea they would have 1 Det 2Falcons 3 Boys/Pack /Giants 4Pats


So Dallas would have 1GB/Giants. 2Falcons/Seahawks. 3Pats


Pack and Giants have the toughest haul Atl might have the slight favorable schedule with Sea's struggles and the loss of ET but a Sea slip against Det changes things by having to come here. A Det win in Sea is possible doubtful but very possible. Everyone's path is tough but to say Dallas has the toughest I don't think so

Yah-- weak-sauce argument from Cowherd for sure. And I agree with you about how Dak and Zeke have revitalized the culture of this team.

They are professional, love to win and compete, work hard-- but have a blast doing it. Love the way this team has come together this year and believe in each other.

In fact-- you could make the argument that this team has the MOST positive culture in the NFL. Not only have they learned bitter lessons after a 4-12 campaign last year, they stepped up and responded after witnessing their starting QB go down and everyone started throwing dirt on their season.

They have handled adversity beautifully. Rodgers has shown he is a leader after pulling things together this season as well-- but it wasn't as dramatic (or unexpected) a turnaround IMO.

Yeah he was on a weak sauce roll today. Comparing keeping Kirk cousins to being the next google for business owners. That argument is stupid because as business owner you don't have to be as big as google to still be successful. I know people making 2-3 kill a year and yeah they aren't google but they aren't hurting either. In sports though the whole point is to win it all or you're not really doing your job so that right there makes what Colin said silly. I think some of these people have prep sessions with yes men cause somebody should have told him that was a stupid pig to have comparing Kirk to someone being successful at starting a business.

It's not the toughest ever when we have home field advantage throughout, have a defense that's playing at its highest level in years and an offense that is capable of winning against the most prolific defenses in the NFL. We will be highly competitive with whomever we face in the playoffs. Even the best NFL defenses in the playoffs are compromised in one area or another. This team will also be returning to action more healthy than ever after two weeks of rest on Dec. 15, whereas our competitors will lack that advantage. The Cowboys will be ready to rock 'em, make no mistake.

This is the same idiot who said Clemson was the fraud of the final four.

Our road in 2014 was going to be harder. Starting out with an explosive Lions team with Megatron in the wild card round. Then went to GB against Rodgers. Then would have went to Seattle to play Wilson. And we would have finished against Brady. That's much harder than this year, where we have home field and will play one less game.

Colin Cowherd is full of hyperbole.

He's full of something

 

[Beast_from_East]

Well, there you have it folks.

The Turd has decreed that it is hopeless so we might as well just not even bother taking the field.

Exactly. Another perspective says the Pack will have the toughest road and so on.

This...good grief.

At least the NFC now looks like it has some decent teams besides Dallas.
At mid season, you had to wonder if there any this year. The conference has looked historically weak...but now some teams are peaking. Should be fin to watch.

 

[DanTanna]

I like our chances.

 

[Doomsday101]

90's Cowboys had a tough Road with San Fran and GB. People knew the winner of the NFC be it San Fran, GB or Dallas would win the SB. Those where some very good teams and was a very tough road to get to the SB.

 

[DFWJC]

Cowherd looking for ratings...lol.
That is completely preposterous.
Just for starters, if you earned a bye you already play one less game. So any and all wildcard teams that would have to play you after they win automatically have it tougher.
