We play better when we are not expected to do much and we struggle more when the accolades start rolling in.

This campaign has all the makings of a 9-8 season: key roster losses with minimal replacements in FA, a turbulent offseason since losing to SF, an undermined and over-pressured HC, and an arrogant and self-satisfied ownership and FO.

Hope I am wrong. I see us contending in the NFCE again— maybe even winning the division again— but we are still a couple big steps down from TB and LAR.
8-9 is what I predicted when the schedule came out.

So, 8-9 or 9-8 like you said is what I see for this team.

The only way I see any different is if we have a dominate defense. Because I believe the offense will take a huge step back.

Dallas is ranked 3rd with 10.5 wins.

I'm taking the over.

Cowboys!
:starspin:

Please believe me when I say I am not trying to criticize you in general. I'm an X heavy gambler that stopped in the mid 90s. But if you take the over on Dallas at 10.5 then you're an amateur. No legit gambler would touch the Cowboys at 10.5, let alone bet the over. They'd bet the under if they had to. History supports this.

I believe this to be right. But if things break right for the Cowboys, I can see them winning 10 games. A lot has to break right for them to win more. It can happen, I just wouldn't put money on it.

7-10

This is a shaky roster that can't absorb injuries, and there will be injuries because this is football.

There are a number of injury-prone players on this team, and this quarterback needs everything to be ideal.

The hope lies in Quinn. If the defense is way more than expected, then a better season is possible.

Yeah, the over is WAY too risky.

There's no way I would put a dime on that.

The only reason I am putting money on it is 1 because I think the defense is going to be much better than last season. I also expect the run game to be better.

And the biggest reason is they play the NFC east 6 times. So what you are saying is you only see them winning 2-4 games outside of the division? If they split with the Eagles and sweep the Giants and Commanders?

Honestly just asking.

It's an over because of schedule.

Six division games and four against Chicago, Detroit, Houston at home and Jacksonville away. That's 10 games and Dallas will win a minimum of 8 games. I predict losses to Philadelphia and Detroit.

The other seven games Dallas needs to go 3-4 to get to 11 wins.

It makes sense since Dallas beats up on the bad teams in the NFL and plays .500 against the good teams.

Dallas will be inflated by their schedule. And I believe we are in for some deja vu.

I look and the schedule and just don't see anymore than 8 or 9 wins.

I see them going 4-2 against the division and 4-7 outside of the division.

Fair enough. I see 4-1 against the division and 7-4 outside of the division.
Tampa
Cinci
LA
Detroit
Chicago
GB
Minnesota
Indy
Houston
Jacksonville
Tennessee

I just can't look at that and see 7 wins myself. I think we could easily beat one of the better teams there and then go 1-2 against Chicago, Houston, and Jacksonville. That's just the way this team operates.

I have two answers-
  • What I hope for - to make the “over” and win 11 or more.
  • What I think will happen based on history the last 26 years- I’ll take the under.

I see us beating Chicago, Houston, Jacksonville, Detroit, Tampa, and surprising Indy and Green Bay.

Under. 12 wins last year was an illusion. Product of a God awful division.
