No high draft picks, salary cap hell, likely Dak Extension, CD becoming the highest paid WR in NFL history, Micah becoming the highest paid EDGE and MM staying as HC aswell as the Jones doing what the Jones do, you just have to feel its gonna be a tough year.

We had one of the easiest schedules in the NFL this year, feasted on it and got smacked in the face facing good teams (SF, Bills, Packers).

2024 Schedule looks brutal besides the NFCE

2x Giants
2x WASH
2x Eagles

Home Games
vs. Saints (almost Playoff Team this season)
vs. TB (Playoff Team this season)
vs. Ravens (AFCG 2023, likely SB Appearance this season)
vs. Bengals (Joe Burrow back, winning record this season)
vs. Lions (NFCG this season)
vs. Houston (Playoff Team this season, likely contender for the next years with CJ Stroud)

Away
@ SF (NFCG, likely SB Appearance this season) -> Yearly smack in the face
@ Browns (Playoff Team this season, tough Defense)
@ Steelers (Playoff Team this season)
@ Jags (Free W)
@ Falcons (good home team, finished 7-10)

I feel like we split with WASH and the Eagles, win twice against the Giants.
Beat Saints at home, TB is 50/50, the Rest we are underdogs in our own house

Away only gimmick is Jags and maybe Falcons.

I see 8-9 or 9-8 at best especially with another weak draft, no improvements from the 2023 class and another JAG shopping Free Agency.

It is what it is, you win some, you lose some. Not sure expectations are high enough right now to even fathom a pick!!

Will be teams that end up playing well below last yr level, some that play up big.

Not gonna worry about it right now, no control over it.

It’s January before free agency and the draft. Anyone predicting a record now is just throwing crap in the wind.

Without even looking at the schedule, they'll win 6 or 7 at home. Win 4 or 5 on the road and finish as the 5 seed. Winning games in the regular season isn't the problem.

You’ve already predicted a weak draft, no improvements from 2023 class and JAG free agency………..that’s pretty harsh.
You forget Dallas has won 12 games for three straight seasons.

11-6.

Unless of course there's an unforseen injury to an impact player.

Looks daunting now, but between FA, the draft, sudden regression or improvement it'll look way different in September and the 2nd half may look way different after a handful of games/injuries/players sucking etc...

I gave them the benefit of the doubt playing at home. No way we would beat either of those two teams on the road.

This team is imploding and seems headed for a toxic environment as players and their families air their frustrations in public. Of course the organization isn’t doing any but hiding out and waiting for the dust to settle. There is no hope or faith in this organization from the fans and players, and I suspect coaches if they could talk honestly.

8 wins should be about right.

I see us as between 10-7 and 12-5 with that schedule. Won't matter come post-season.

So I guess I'll go with 11-6.
