Last year's was about as easy as it gets and we didn't excel. we should have been 11-5 or 12-4. Simply threw 3-4 games that were there for the taking. With better offense we shoulda won : NO, NE, Philthy #2, and Jets. D let us down terribly against NYJ, and Chicago.

And, just for the record there are no "easy" records and no way to judge "easy".

That schedule looks terrible! Easy my butt.


Even the easy games like the Falcons are tough. When’s the last time we beat the Falcons? When Ware intercepted Vick. It’s been a while.

When you have two of the worse teams in your division and the division winner at 9-7. This skews it a bit, as those games are tougher than the records indicate.

Bengals were a very injured team, that will be a harder game than some think.
So were the iggles. They had Home Depot guys at WR.

The Cowboys have missed the playoffs with first place schedules after coming off division wins and make the playoffs the following season with easier schedules. That’s been the trend which has contributed to these up and down years.

It's hard to win with a HC who has no business being one.....

a healthy team can't walk into the playoffs in a weak division. I said before the season started if the team flopped there's no excuse for Garrett, Dak, and the other major contributors. We flopped and JG is gone. MM will not be the scapegoat for the common denominator if we fail again.

We're not failing with MM.

In 2019 we were 7-2 vs teams that missed the playoffs and 1-6 vs teams that made the playoffs. Figures the only playoff team we beat was about as bad as we were.

We need a DT who can push the pocket and create some havoc. DT is our number one need in my opinion.

Compared to last season at around this time, this schedule looks much harder. Last year Dallas played the AFC east. Them along with the divisional rivals was supposed to be 8 wins alone. Jets, Bills, Dolphins and split with Philly. Cowboys were just not good enough. You're not finding a list like that this year. At least not one so apparent.

Add in the Rams & Saints. Philly didn't have to play them. Being they won the division this time, let Wentzie deal with a tougher schedule in 2020. :muttley:
