We can beat INDY. We are designed to.

Indy is one dimensional. Keep Luck off the field and play pass defense. I think we can do that well enough to get the W.

I hope ill be at that game!

I do not see 12-4 just my opinion. I picked 6-10 at the start of the season but now the team is better then last year. I see 10-6 or 11-5. the cowboys need to take advantage of the next four games and win three out four to get ready for the last six games. the December schedule is one of the tougher schedules in league so I see at least two losses for sure then. I see the eagles winning the division so the cowboys need to win as many now to get in position for a wild card. eagles have more home games in the second half then the cowboys and that will help them win the division.

I might slow my roll on handing the Eagles anything yet. In fact, if Dallas does not win the division this year behind this o-line then Garrett might never do anything in Dallas. The expectations have changed and Dallas has an identity now. The Eagles can't play the Giants every week! Cowboys are going to have more home games over the next 5 weeks than the Eagles...works both ways. An added bonus is that the Cowboys get them at home first, with a win giving an early edge and inside track on the division, which will put pressure on the Eagles to keep pace.

We need to keep focus on ourselves. What this team can't do is turn the ball over and get way behind early, at least against good teams. Play our game and we could win out. Do the former and any game could be a struggle

Have no clue why people seem to be dismissing Arizona.

100% agree. They have some good front line players that are just starting to come back from injury and Campbell is set to come back in a few weeks. Their best football is probably right around the corner.

Pending any meltdown, I think we run the tables to the bye. Then we head into the meat of our schedule. We need to use these 4 games to build some momentum. But I have a feeling we're going to let one of these 4 games slip. It's too difficult in the NFL to continue to do what we're doing. But 8-2 heading into the bye would have had me doing back flips in August. Now ... I want 9-1 ... but I'll temper that enthusiasm.

We have a significant possibility of dropping 3 of our last 6 games. But then again, if I could predict the future, I'd be rich.

Even if Dallas goes 4-2 in the division, which I think is a bit conservative, they would go 12-4 by winning three against Chi, Indy, Zona, and Jax. There's no reason they couldn't go 5-1 and 3-1 to finish 13-3. Zona and WAS are the only teams that stop the run with any success, and I don't trust either of their QBs.

10-6? You see us going 5-5 from here on out?

I understand tempering enthusiasm, but man. That seems a bit pessimistic.
