Essentially clinched the division

[LucaBrasi]

We own the tiebreaker over all 3 teams. I know its probably a foregone conclusion that we will win the division, but it is nice to know if the Cowboys slip up they own all the tiebreakers.
Beat the G-Men twice, and Skins and Eagles both already have 3 division losses, most Cowboys can lose is 2. Not pretty, but a huge win.

Well I hadn't done the addition but that in and of itself is wuite a victory, how long has it been since we have accomplished this task I wonder?

 

[dalboy]

Rather have a ugly win than a good looking loss

 

[hairic]

13 wins would hit the division winning spot, ignoring the upcoming losses by the Giants.

I'm hoping we end up 15-1, but I'm preparing myself for 14-2

We just might have to face the horror of a 14-2 season.

 

[StylisticS]

The magic number is down to 4, right? That means, if we win Thursday and the Giants lose next Sunday, we can clinch the division against Green Bay?

I think that when were at washington we will put brad johnson in because its the last game and lose but who knows?

We're also 3 games up on the other division leaders (other than GB obviously), so we've almost clinched a first round bye.

That is a victory under normal situations, but the reality is home field advantage is now the bigger goal, as, playing in Green Bay in January is not a pleasant thing, and doubtful as to the Boys' chances this year.


Dallas owns Green Bay in Dallas, but not in Green Bay. The season is not over by a long shot. The next two victories will be a great step up the ladder. Gotta beat NY Jets and Green Bay. Then Carolina and Philadelphia, and Washington at Washington, which I think will be a loss.

This will be a hard campaign, especially after seeing the D today.

Nothing is clinched! An injury here or there and the picture changes considerably. For the division title the magic number is 2 concerning the Skins and Eagles(2 Cowboy wins, or 2 losses by them, or 1 win and 1 loss by them). The magic number is 4 concerning the Gints.

Lemme differ on that last one dude... As you could see today, never underestimate a rivalry, and never underestimate the boys against the skins... We own them for several years and having way worse teams than the one we have today...
Its more than probable that we can lose with the skins on the last game, but its also likely to be a win... You have to wait, cant make predictions at all.

I can only say, for the upcoming games, that dallas SHOULD and MUST win the games with Jets and the Panthers... the other ones are ones to fight.
