Thoughts? The Cowboys are about to go on a 6 game stretch vs the NFC. In those games I can see the Cowboys going 5-1. They are not playing any powerhouses the rest of the way except for the Saints. And of course the Bears and Packers who have QBs that always go for big games.against us.

The Cowboys could possibly rip off 5 in a row going into the bye if they keep their foot on the pedal and the defense gets it together.

Given how the other teams look this season I think our final record is going to be 9-7 which should be good enough for the playoffs.

We will beat GB they have an atrocious secondary .

No...you must not have read the forum yesterday night

We are doomed, and will lose out. Romo sucks, Cole B is a God.

Thoughts?

One game at a time. Very few teams are consistent from week to week.

Yes, just like San Diego, look how that turned out

We are at home

I like it, but I just don't see the division games going that smoothly. Something silly will happen in probably multiple games.

Honestly:

vs Commanders W
at Eagles W
at Lions L
vs Vikings W
at Saints L
at Giants L
vs Raiders W
at Bears W
vs Packers L
at Commanders L
vs Eagles L

All a wild guess though. This team is capable of winning or losing any game.

 

[Frozen700]

We are at home

Oh yeah, I forgot.

Our 12th man, and hostile environment.

I don't know, but we better end up playing some better pass defense if we're going to compete with the really good teams at any point. At least the NFCE is wide open, and I think we've got the inside track there.

I don't think it's hopeless, by any means. We'll play better pass defense against weaker QBs. But you can't beat anybody good when 5TD and 500 yards isn't enough to get it done.

 

[Smith22]

Somewhere between 7 to 9 wins. The defense must improve, A LOT!

The offense, particularly the OL, Romo, Witten and Dez, need to stay healthy.

 

[StarBoyz83]

For some reason I think we lose to giants and drop one to the Commanders

 

[WoodysGirl]

Who knows with this team.. *shrug*

Folks should just try to enjoy the ride..

It really depends on which Cowboys team shows up on a given week. I don't think that anybody can look past Washington next week with any degree of clarity. We've only had one three game and one four game winning streak in the Garrett era, to assume that we can get any consistency with this criminally bad defense is somewhat of a stretch IMO.

10 -6, the last lost is because we are resting our starters as we have the division wrapped up.

 

[TheCoolFan]

The season is just too hard this year. Still have Brees and Rodgers, a healthier RG3 twice, the Chip Kelly offense twice, Stafford on his turf, AND Jay Cutler, who owns us. Yikes.

 

[perrykemp]

If the defense can somehow right the ship and NOT be a bottom 5 defense, I can see 10-6 or 11-5.

If they play essentially the same way they've been playing so far through 5 games, I think 8-8 is about right.

 

[Deep_South]

Romo is healthy and has on OL that can block pretty good, but the Jerry 4-3 is a hapless mess so it's going to be one shootout after another.

Of course any team with a functional QB is going to cause major issues. We snuck by the Giants the first time. That will not happen again. Split the Eagles and Skins. I am worried about the Vikings because we can not stop the run when we have to, but unless Romo has another one of his famous meltdowns we should be OK there. So 6-10 maybe 7-9 if a couple of breaks go our way. Hopefully it will be enough for another regime change. We need to get some real NFL level coaches. The Red Ball of Haze is not getting it done and our 102 year old DC needs to be shown the door this week.

I still say we're a 7-9 or 8-8 team. This team is too inconsistent. They'll play great against Denver and struggle with Philadelphia. This is the same team that was shut out during the second half of the Chargers game last week. If this offense could put up 48 points a game every week then Dallas would be practically unbeatable but it won't happen. Just like the Rams victory, reality comes the following week.
