Looking at our next seven games

KJJ said:
How many QB's in the NFL can you name who win from start to finish every Sunday without ever having to play from behind? You're being silly if you think it's possible for any QB at any level to win from start to finish every week. This discussion is getting more ridiculous every minute and people question my logic. lol

Didn't Romo have the most 4th quarter comeback games last year? Why yes...yes he did...
 
Did Romo have a 4th quarter comeback vs Washington last season in the season finale? I'm talking about the final 3 minutes of spotlighted games like that.
 
The thing is our defense has a lot of young and or new pieces. It's not outrageous to think they might actually get better as the year goes along..

Generally speaking, last I read that's the only way Aaron Rodgers can win games.

I agree, it turned ridiculous the moment you hijacked the thread in post #85 with your usual schtick turning it into another bash Romo thread. From there it was "ill-timed" turnovers, "elimination" games and your newly made up "signifiact spotlighted games". This thread was started to discuss the next 7 games by the OP. You strayed so far from topic it's not even funny. Instead of discussing the subject you start off calling them a homer.... I'm sorry.... "FAN". Personally, if I had to pick, I'd rather be a "FAN" than a "DETRACTOR". Life is much happier that way. But for you, if anyone starts a positive thread here you will come to hijack it with your negative Nancy BS. It never fails. Same old crap, day in, day out. I have no issue with anyone having a negative comment, but you are a broken record. Get some new material FFS. You're not a voice of reason here no matter what you believe.

Just trying to help

The topic strayed and you've contributed. You've strayed even further and are focusing on me I suggest moving on.

You strayed the topic. Yes I contributed. I also pointed out over the course of my posts how it started. You stated the "discussion is getting more ridiculous every minute". I explained the reason of why that happened and why it always happens. Don't like the truth I suggest you move on.
 
Looking at them one at a time and we kick the deadskins butt today!!!!!!!!!!!

I speak the truth and the truth can hurt it obviously hurts you.

Luckily, we are going to see a hampered RGIII and Vick. If they were healthy, we could lose both of those, their speed would hurt this defense. Philly's overall speed still could be a problem. I have a feeling that Wash will be ready and look the best they have all season so far.

AP very well could run all over us and NO is most likely a loss. NY and Oak are the only two wins I can predict at this point with some confidence. Det is 50/50, depends on which team shows up for them. We need that up-tempo offense to stay and not revert back to give us a chance.

It could go 2-5, 3-4 or 4-3 and I don't see 5 or 6 wins in there. Dallas could beat any and all of them but that will not happen, this team seems to like keeping it close. One game at a time, one game at a time. We will know their fate after these next two division games IMO.

I think that if Dallas sweeps the division and beats Minn and Oakland at home, they have a very good chance at winning the division [9-7]. The road games against the North or troubling, especially against the gunslinger Cutler at Chicago. Strange things happen when Dallas plays at Detroit as well. Green Bay at home might be interesting and likely a shootout, that might tip the balance in the Cowboys favor with receiver injuries for the Packers right now. New Orleans? Wait and see. Graham was held without a catch and Brees was 50% passing against NE, an important blueprint laid down (they still scored 27 however). Graham looks to have an ankle or foot injury. Regardless, the Superdome is a tough place to play. Dallas has done it before but that does not necessarily mean that they will do it again. Ryan is looking forward to that game for sure.

In all reality, the division is now a two horse race, as Washington gave its last gasp Sunday night. Pythagorean Division projections [after week 6] as follows:

Dallas................9-7 [11-5]
Philadelphia.....8-8 [10-6]

Washington......4-12 [6-10]
New York........2-14 [4-12]

Bottom line? Dallas "could" finish as high as 11-5, but that would depend on much improved defensive play and a little luck. If Dallas "merely" takes care of business in the division they could finish 7-9 and still take it. Not the way one would wish, but winning the division is winning the division. Atrocious or not.

The Cowboys goal should be quite simple:
Win every division game.
They do that and let the rest fall where they may.

Focus definitely should on the Commanders Sunday night.
Win that and we'll be where we need to be through 6 games.

This stretch of the schedule is "winnable" but we have to take 1 game at a time with an eye slightly ahead only to the divisional foes.
Having a plan to beat those teams is crucial.

9-7 with 8-0 in the division and you are in the playoffs.
That should be this team's goal and plan to get there.

1 game down.
So good so far.

Now focus on Philly and another division win.

People derailing this thread need a life. Plenty of other threads to debate nonsense.

If the Cowboys sweep the division very little else matters.
It is virtually impossible for them to sweep the division and lose it given results of games already played.
Whether the Cowboys are 11-5 or 8-8 ... just win the division and get to the playoffs.
Seeding stuff is largely pointless as we have seen any number of low ranking seeds win the Super Bowl.
You want to get better as the season progresses, get hot in the playoffs and then take your chances.

The most realistic number right now is probably 10-6 or 9-7. Neither make us a great team but both would put us in the playoffs provided we take care of divisional business first.

This week is a huge game as we would have knocked all the divisional foes off once and opened up a 1.5 game lead minimum over everyone else.
 
If we go 5-1 in the division, that would be 2-1 for the rest of the way. That's 6 wins. Then there's 2 groups.

The first is Minn and Oakland. 2-0, 8 wins.

The second group is GB, Chicago, Detroit, and NO. I think we go 1-3 there. 9 wins.

That's 9-7. If we win one more, that's 10. Maybe Cutler will be out a while. But that's a lot of good quarterbacks on the road to go more than 2-2.
