Assuming similar health to now. I am giving them all W's in games versus teams below .500.
3 wins based upon that.
They are unbelievable at home right now and I am giving them 2 wins versus the 3 quality opponents at home.
That totals to 5 wins.
I am giving them a split versus the Bills and Dolphins on the road.
So I have us at 6-3 for final 8 and 12-5 for the season

Playoff Seeding in NFC if season ended today:

  1. Eagles
  2. Lions
  3. 49ers
  4. Saints
  5. Seahawks
  6. Cowboys
  7. Vikings
i see 4-4 and staying in the sixth seed. either have to play the 49ers or the lions. does not look like a deep playoff run. if we play the niners this team is one and done. might have a chance against the lions.

Eagles sweep them.

Bills win a close one in the cold.

Split with Washington.

Beat Seattle, Miami and Detroit

5-3

Wild card entrant.

I’d take that bet.

If I was a betting man that is.
I wouldn't have made that 8 - 0 prediction if our Oline had not greatly improved in run blocking yesterday. Remember, the Giants have a pretty good front 4 D-line, and the Cowboys carved them up for a tune of 168 rushing yards. Plus, Dak was not sacked even once all game. If the Oline keeps improving, I can seriously see this team going 8 - 0 against the remaining schedule regardless of opponent(s).

The remaining schedule is a minefield. We can win them all or lose 3 of them. The road games in Buffalo and Miami will be tough. I like us at home against the rest. We should go at least 6-2 the rest of the way, but that means nothing. We lost to the Cardinals. Anyone can beat us if we don’t come ready to dominate.

We lost to the Beagles so we can’t sweep them. Moral victories don’t count in spite of what you might read on the board.

I was going between 5-3 and 6-2. 6-2 if I'm optimistic. 5-3 if I'm being realistic and figure in the cowboys history of inconstancy

5-3. We’ll surprise and beat either the Eagles or Dolphins, and lose one to Wash, and another loss in a game we should have won.

OP, we should pin this thread and see how we all did.

Every single game is winnable or lose-able.

Raise you hand if you predicted these outcomes in advance:
  • Cowboys losing to Arizona 28-17
  • Titans curb stomping Joe Burrow and the bengals 27-3
  • Texans whipping the Steelers 30-6.
  • The niners destroying us 42-10, then losing 3 straight
  • The jets beating the e-girls 20-14
  • Broncos drilling the defending champ chiefs 24-9
  • The browns coming back to beat the ravens 33-31 in Balt after training by 15.
So all that to say, good luck accurately predicting a bunch of NFL games weeks in advance.
