Wowza....i can see the Cowboys going 9-8 or 10-7 if lucky.. Good thing the NFCE exists. The defense is gonna take a couple steps backward and that won't be good. Pressure on MM and obviously Dak...to carry the team offensively... and then the dam breaks. Forget NFCCG...... No joy in Mudville.

Like I said in the other thread, luckily the tougher games are at home.

No 6-11 if lucky, maybe 5-12 but then jerry will have to get a top head coach,

That’s what we need. Wouldn’t mind going 10-7 and being battle tested in the playoffs.

Our home schedule will be brutal. Besides NFC East opponents: Baltimore, Houston, Detroit, New Orleans, Tampa Bay and Cincinnati. Does anyone think we're going undefeated at home?

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.
9 and 8
Miss the playoffs
Get another soft HC
Rinse and repeat in 2025

I’m going 9-8, if everything breaks right!
This team’s champion aspirations has run its course!
I can’t believe Jerry is actually going to run this team back one more time?
If anything, the locker room will get even more toxic, if Dak comes back with pretty much the same roster and coaches.
Lucky to make the playoffs and if we do, we are definitely one and done unless there are some major changes in the offseason, which I don’t think is going to happen.
If Jerry extends Dak, that will say a lot!
Gloom and despair, oh my!

I like the idea of a parlay. 9 - 8 and I have to score a 4 in the solo spaz dance contest.

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 agree!
Just remember that before Parsons got here this was already an 8 win team.

How does Dallas play both Houston and Jacksonville when they also have to play the AFC North. :huh:

Dallas might be in the worst division in football. That kind of pads the record and the stats. Wouldn't be surprised if the Cowboys go 6-0 against the NFCE and 4-7 against everyone else.
