Expectations

[darthseinfeld]

There's alot of high expectations from fans this year. A little too high if you ask me. We could be better but have a worse record than last year. There will be a melt down if we lose 3 games early which is entirely possible looking at the schedule. The Rats will be jumping ship and this place will be miserable to visit. So just tamper all the high expectations and hang in even if we're not too successfully early on. And as Popovich / Garrett always preach take one game at a time. Pound the Rock.

I expect 10-6. And yes I will admit I was wrong if they dont go 10-6 because I know someone is going to ask if I am

There is nothing wrong with high expectations. I encourage all folks that claim to be Cowboys fans to expect a great season from our Boys. The cautionary approach is for the weak that don't trust in this team. Last season was no fluke and we have only made good decisions and improvements since then. We will be better. That could mean we still only win one playoff game. That would be a disappointment but until then I'm convinced we will go further than last season. I'm all in!

The Scandrick injury really bothers me because the NFL is such a passing league now. He may be a bit overrated but he's the best CB we have. Patmon in the slot against guys like Edelman could be ugly. I still like them for 10-6 but it will be a grind every week, as it always is.

No excuses for Garrett. That train has to come to an end. Playoffs or nothing. This guy has had everything his way. Hes taken every possible opp to do everything to not make the team better but also make life easier on him. 1 good season no one can say anyhting bad, Somehow all the bad seasons dont count. Well, we need another good season. the playoffs are not a horrible expectation in the league of parity. Hes had a great offseason, he had a wonderful draft, 3 1st round talents. Nothing should derail this team. Anything short of playoffs should not only see him fired, it should walk him out of the league and only be hired by Cincinatti as punishment.

The only way we don't make the playoffs is Romo getting hurt.

Expectation: Tearing some Giants' ACE on Sunday night. Specifically tearing up Eli ACE. Specifically Gregory, Lawrence and Coleman smashing Eli ACE repeatedly down after down. Specifically after Gregory, Lawrence and Coleman smash Eli ACE with much violence down after down after down, Eli's sorry ACE throws an INT to Corey White who runs it in for a TD.

10-6 sounds very reasonable.

we are hoping, I think a healthy Romo is still playoff bound. The only thing that worries me is that the Giants wont roll over twice again and the usually losses we got that should have been wins. Romo goes down, I dont blame Garrett.

 

[StarOfGlory]

11-5, loss to Bill Bellicheat in the SB. That is my prediction.

I really think we are going to handle the Seahawks. I think they take a step back this year. Not out of the playoffs, but not dominant.
