Just finished comparing the Cowboys schedule to that of the team I hate most.

1) As you know the only difference in teams played is our single NFC South and NFC North opponent.
Eagles play Chicago away week 4 and Atlanta home week 8.
We play G.B. away week 3 and T.B. home week 8.
I'm not too happy as an eagle fan. Not much if any advantage over the first place team's draw. I see the eagles chances of picking up a game on us here as slim and none. Not sure there's one legit QB between these four teams. The only L I can see here is in Chicago.

2) NFC West opponents.
Cowboys get Arizona and St Louis away and S.F. and Seattle home.
Eagles get S.F. and Seattle away and St Louis and Arizona home.
Again I have to give Cowboys the advantage. We get to play Seattle, the only legit playoff team at home. Local for the other 3 games means little.

3) AFC North Opponents.
Dallas plays Pit and Cleveland away and Bal and Cin home.
Eagles play Pit and Cleveland home and Bal and Cin away.
Eagles get the obvious advantage here.

Overall, I'd call it a push.

At Balt? and at Cincy?

No matter how bad things may look, those teams are tough to beat at home.

Remember last year when the schedules came out-pretty much everyone agreed it was easy enough for them to run the tables in the entire conference...OOPS! Unless you want to consider 8-8(where the majority of their losses being nailbiters) *great*.(Of course, they had no business winning a number of their own nailbiters like the J-E-T-S)

Seriously-just like Denny Green once said-"We came out to play! If you want to crown'em, then crown their *****!". Let these games play out FIRST, b/c you just never know what will happen in the end. We will see alot of surprises this year.
