Dallas Vs. Philly Remaining Schedule

[Beast_from_East]

Dallas: (4 games against teams with a winning record currently)

host Giants
host Skins
host Cards
At Jags (London)
At Giants
host Eagles (Thanksgiving)
At Bears
At Eagles
host Colts
At Skins

Philly: (6 games against teams with a winning record currently)

At Cards
At Texans
host Panthers
At Packers
host Titans
At Cowboys (Thanksgiving)
host Seattle
host Dallas
At Skins
At Giants


Between the two schedules, I will take ours over theirs. They have road trips to Arizona and Green Bay as well as a home game with Seattle. They also finish the season with two road division games. We currently have 4 games against teams with winning records and they have 6, if you count the head to head match ups.

If you exclude the head to head matchups, we have only 2 games left against teams who currently have a winning record, that being Arizona and Indy. The Eagles would have 4 games left in that scenario, being Arizona, Carolina, Green Bay, and Seattle.

Bottom line..................if we just win the games we will be favored in, we should win this division.

Our schedule is looking easy this time of the year. While theirs is looking pretty brutal. I think they will lose at a minimum 3 games and could possible lose 5-6 games.

Getting SF and Seattle early we clearly have the easier schedule.

I am a big Philly hater. Not only in Football but also in baseball, hockey and basketball. That said, their schedule is better than Dallas'.

Dallas plays 5 of their last 8 games on the road. Their 3 home games are against Cardinals, Eagles and Colts. These 3 teams are all play off teams. Also Dallas looks like peaking a little bit early. I think Eagles have a little bit of an edge here in terms of schedule. But Dallas is a better team so I expect Dallas to come up top in this fight. Dallas will win the division and Eagles will get in as a wild card.

 

[Texas_Pete]

I don't want to look ahead. One game at a time.

I take our schedule every day of the week and twice on Sunday....................we basically have 5 of the next 6 games at home...........Jags is not really a road game, more like a scrimmage and I guarantee you Wimberly Stadium in London will be 90% Cowboy fans. Does anybody really think there are Jaguar fans in London?

So basically 5 of the next 6 are Cowboy home games..................don't see how anybody would not take that schedule and run with it.

Yes I do

Plus we get the late bye. Plus we're not really near peaking yet. We can play much better. Plus we're a decent road team, anyway. I like ours better than theirs now that we're past SEA. But it's really going to come down to head to head anyway, assuming we both take care of business along the way.

Don't count your money at the table.

 

[dallasdave]

Hey, if the Cowboys can beat the Seahawks they can beat anyone. Keep on winning boys.

 

[maxdallasfan]

Philly will slip up. They are a mirage. Their gimmicky O is crap. Crap I tell you.

Ask San Fran how good their O is.

Plus, their bogus ST touchdowns will now stop. Teams aren't stupid and will prevent that garbage. ST scores are responsible for 2 of their wins.

All we go to do is split with Philly, that should be good enough to win the division...........just don't get swept, that is about the only way Philly can win the division based on remaining schedule.

There's no way our schedule is worse than the Eagles' schedule. Looking at one objective measure, Football Outsiders has us with the 21st most difficult schedule remaining and the Eagles with the 9th.

Comparing game by game:
Common games (2): @NYG, @WAS
Head-to-head games (2): PHI@DAL, DAL@PHI

That leaves 6 games.
Arizona: ARI@DAL, PHI@ARI: advantage Cowboys
NFC North: DAL@CHI in December, PHI@GB in November: call it a wash because we may face worse weather
AFC South, road: DAL@JAC (London), PHI@HOU: advantage Cowboys
AFC South, home: IND@DAL, TEN@PHI: advantage Eagles
The rest: NYG@DAL, WAS@DAL vs. CAR@PHI, SEA@PHI: huge advantage Cowboys

Excellent break down bro....................really the only clear advantage for Philly is us playing Indy and them getting the Titans..............every other set of games is either a wash or Cowboy advantage

Looking at it like this, it is really going to take collapse to lose this division.

 

[dogunwo]

Those next four games for them are pretty tough. I would think they are for real if they come out better than 2-2.

No it's not. All it would take would be losing to the Eagles.

I play poker. I always know how much I have in front of me.

 

[Derekmtl85]

I don't want to look ahead. One game at a time.

As fans, we're allowed to look at the remaining schedule without fear of causing a loss because of that....we aren't on the field.

Never understood this logic...only players need to focus one game at a time.

Philly Schedule

They will lose close games vs HOU and Ari. Foles will be running for his life and he will look a lot like he did vs SF. I'll give them the game vs Carolina, but they lose in GB. This puts them at 7-4 going into our Thanksgiving game. Let's hope it happens this way.
