Let's talk about the Cowboys schedule, first six games

[DFWJC]

Why? He gets 0-6 , 1-5, 2-4 and I get 3-3, 4-2 , 5-1 and 6-0. Seems fair to me for someone who is positive that we have no chance at going 6-0 or 5-1 and even 4-2 for that matter.

Talk to him about it
You are Talking two different things…..an exact record vs an over/under

He did not say 2 games or less, he said 2-4 was his exact guess.
For all you know, he might see 1-5 as less likely than 3-3 or even 4-2.

 

[Direwolf63]

I think the first 6 games will go about how the entire season will go: .500 give or take a game or 2 either way

 

[Dallasfann]

"buffoon lure": Predicting a team that hasn't won in 26 straight years won't win in year 27 either.

Take away the season Romo went down week 2. The Cowboys have started 2-4 or worse only 1 time in the past 11 years, but like I said...buffoon lure. I admit I looked at it as it passed me by. I will now proceed to let it drop to the bottom. I'm sure it will trickle back through soon.

Look at that bright side though...going off previous trends you and your band of buffoon fisherman have like a 9 % chance to be right!!

TB - GOAT but beatup OL and no Gronk/AB. Better defense than what we lucked into last year, but no where near the offensive roster. Also no Bruce Arians.

Honestly, I'm more concerned about their D and Brady. For whatever reason, our OLine sometimes struggles with 3-4 defenses and no mistake Bowles will them ready.

Their offense has a lot of issues as mentioned.

Yep. I agree. The never ending saga of continued mediocrity.

 

[CWR]

Defense.....6-0

Let's go! Suck it haters.

I don't think it has anything to do with their base defense, but their run blocking is and has been phenomenal, and the Cowboys want to run. Bad place to come out to try to establish it.

I'm thinking 3-3 is realistic, 4-2 would be great.......Gallup should be back.

by the end of the McCarhy will be fired 2-4

 

[Arkyvarminter]

If we establish the run we'll be tough to beat but if Moore wants to pass alot it could get ugly early in the season...........

 

[TWOK11]

The rest of our schedule is so easy that we’ll be in fine shape if we can just go 3-3 or better. The final 11 games has a 9-2/8-3 look to it.

 

[visionary]

Pretty much this.

Catching Tampa early is a plus given their OL issues. It's unlikely we sweep the division again and that game @ Philly easily could be a loss.

Tampa - W
Cincy - L
G - W
Commanders - W
Rams - L
Eagles - L

However, I could see them stealing that Cincy game too.

this
I think we could win one or both of Cincy or Philly too

U seem mad.

How many of those seasons did it consist of facing Brady, Burrow and Stafford out of the gate?

Have fun cheerleading. I'll be over here being right. Again.

3-3 sounds about right. If the Cowboys can go 4-2 that would be incredible.

 

[CowboyRoy]

2-4.

It's going to be a long season and a very interesting offseason. Nothing like this last one.

I can't wait to hear how Jerry has looked in the mirror and admitted he's made mistakes.

This is exactly what you said last season.

 

[CowboyRoy]

LOL, throw downs already , M cowboy vs Dallasfan

If we are below .500 after playing 3 NFC East games in 6 games , we should pack-up and forfeit the season.

On the contrary, if we can be at 500 through the first 6 games with all the young players and Gallup out with the tough schedule, we would be right in thick of it.

 

[Sydla]

I'd take 4-2 happily. Preferably with one of the wins being over Philly on the road.

"Duh the Cowboys arent winning the SB"!!

Buffon lure indeed.

 

[CowboyRoy]

However many games they lose out of the first 6, all the losses will be because of crooked refs and Goodell.

NO, no..............if we lose ANY games and a WR drops 1 pass it will be because of what we did at WR.

 

[AsthmaField]

Tampa - W 27-17
Cincy - W 33-30
Giants - W 27-10
Wash - W 34-17
Rams - W 21-17
Eagles - L 0-123 (DT Davis)
