It seems like the Cowboys always play Green Bay in Green Bay either way another tough schedule and if Garrett, has another season like this one he won't last through next season.

Another tough schedule? Hard to even imagine it's possible while playing in the NFCE.

I count 2 teams with current records of .500 or better in the homes games. Washington (9-7) and Cincy (12-4);​

And 4 teams with records better than .500 as the away games. Washington (9-7), Pittsburgh (10-6), Green Bay (10-6), and Minnesota (11-5)​

6 games against teams who's records are currently .500 or greater. Goodness, just imagine how much it would suck to be Miami and have that many games against teams with records of .500 or better without even leaving your division.

If it wasn't for the fact that Philly/New York and Chicago/Detroit had to play each other (and therefore produce a winner), they could have had 10 games next year against teams who finished with 6 wins or fewer.

In the weakest division (perhaps tied with AFCS still) and finished last, which means they play a softer division schedule and get to play teams with similar placements in divisional rankings. Something tells me they will probably have one of the weakest schedules in the NFL.

I actually don't mind that schedule. If we can come out of this draft with SPEED, and a really good RB, a receiver that can scare the life out of defenses, then going on the road should be no problem. This past season could be a blessing in disguise.

Pittsburgh, Green Bay, and Cincinnati...here and now, I'd take my chances with all the rest...

A great off season with a real backup for Tony Romo, and I'll go with what ever odds Vegas comes up with!
