There sad part is big leads was supposed to be our formula for winning - get big leads and the D can tee off and kill the QB...

What’s really sad is we had a great defense earlier in the season and it’s fallen apart. The formula worked when the defense was playing its best, but it’s regressed a lot. The injuries are starting to pile up. We were keeping teams under 20 points the first several games of the season with only one TD per week. Our defense looks like a joke right now. Other than the sack he had today Parsons has pretty much disappeared.

No they lost because teams are exposing their weaknesses and injuries are mounting.

The last 3 games are going to be tough, all 3 teams can run the football well.

We played Washington, NY, Philly x2, Cincinnati, and Minnesota. It doesn't seem like the schedule has been all that easy for any team in the NFCE.

We also played the Rams before the wheels completely fell off, and have the Titans on the horizon.

I'm assuming you're pulling that off of opponents win pct; it just surprises me.
That sounds tough to you?

I’d like to personally thank Trevor Lawrence for helping the Cowboys get they minds right for a deep playoff run.

Compared to years past, yeah, it does. There's a lot of wins stacked amongst those teams.
Lol

The only reason all 4 NFC East teams are in the thick of the playoff hunt is we all have cupcake schedules.

So basically, your entire easiest schedule ever routine is just your opinion. Okay, cool, it's your opinion have fun with it.

I only asked because you've repeated it a couple times and I thought you might actually have the receipts.

There's our easiest ever strength of schedule based on actual win percentages. Yes it has us as easiest ever, at 6th hardest in the league. Last year we were something like 23rd. Not my OPINION, just what the numbers say.

Numbers can dance anyway you want. Knowledge knows. Numbers lie.
