The Eagles are predicted to win 8.5 games while the Cowboys are predicted to win 8.3. The most depressing part of the blog is this:
"Over the past eight seasons, only four NFL teams5 have gotten better passing efficiency (as measured by the adjusted net yards per attemptindex, or ANY/A+) from their primary quarterbacks6 than the Dallas Cowboys. Since 2006, the average number of wins per season for the teams surrounding them on that list7 was 10.1. In the same period, though, the Cowboys have won just nine games per season. In fact, few teams have ever received such premium passing but won as infrequently as the Tony Romo-era Cowboys."
Talk about wasting a career.
