Realism 101

We beat 1 good team (Bolts) with the assistance of the refs as our offense was 2.5 Quarters MIA.
The Refs have been supporting us weekly pretty much.
That followed victories against 3 non-playoff teams, 2 with injuries to their major talents galore.
Now according to the homers here, we are SB bound and the media is feeding the frenzy accordingly.
The only item we can confirm is Zeke is back and our defense looks motivated and improved.
Dak is driving the bus satisfactorily as his teammates are paying for their tickets with top-level performances.
The next 6 weeks will tell the tale of what our true talent levels are and if we can compete with the big boys in the NFC.
COWBOYS!!!!!

Ridiculous. You just don't want to say Dak is playing GREAT. Driving the bus satisfactory, Really? Such a hater.
Last I knew, you play the teams on your schedule and win games.

TB...we went toe to toe, and the refs gave them some help.
They lost to the Rams, a good team. they beat a bad Falcons team and a bad beat up Dolphins team, and barely beat a not so good NE team.
So what is your narrative from that.

Dallas, as I said went toe to toe with TB.
We beat a very good SD team. And no assistance from the refs as you said, those recalled TD's were recalled from actually REAL penalties.
We beat the Eagles that some thought were good, and were the #2 defense at the time. An undefeated Carolina team with the #1 defense at the time.
Then beat the NYG a team they were supposed to beat. Good teams in the NFL do just that.

We are both 4-1, and they played less competitive teams at the time than we did. with both LA teams being about equal.

Spot on, brother. Let me add that we had to deal with injuries too since he pointed out that we played 2 teams with "injuries galore."

Troy kept harping on the Giants being shorthanded like he didn't know we are too.

Lose for a month and everyone should be fired, we are hot garbage.
Win for a month and we are untouchable champions of the world.

Yep. No middle ground.

Realism 101 should imply that beating teams in the crappiest division doesn’t give any insight into the real strength of the dominant team

Some people enjoy living in the moment and that’s ok for them......but it just makes the fall so much harder.

True, but the other side is equally miserable…always expecting the worst, never happy. That’s no way to live. The truth lies in the middle.

Giants= Any talk about these guys is just people trying to keep hem relevant. Anyone with two eyes and a functioning cerebral cortex saw what happened Sunday. Please Giants go play in traffic. And by that I mean 95, I think it runs past the stadium.

Philly = Pretty much the same, It's on tape. The total domination of the *ahem* team was a thing to behold. Neither team is in the conversation with us. It's like scrimmaging a D2 College team at this point. Or to sing it to you guys "Cry Eaglets Cry"

Washington = See you guys. You have a good defense so that means we'll score about 28 to 33 points. I don't think Heineken can Qb you guys to that many point But we'll see

Yeah the NYG will probably not win more than 3-4 games the rest of the season.
Wash is going to go on a long losing streak looking at their schedule and how their QB is struggling. I don’t see them winning again for quite a while.
Philly should get whooped tonight but I can see them going on a little run bc their schedule has a fair amount of winnable games but still see them finishing with a losing record. Easy to figure them out, force Hurts to make more than one good throw in a row….win.
 
The talent in the east has been bad. I am now convinced that had Dak remained healthy last year, Cowboys would have pulled away and won the least in 2020. Rough start to be sure, but the defense, bad as it was, tightened up and the offence would have figured out the turnovers.
 
some of you are very overconfident 5 games in....the games will all be played then we can talk trash..
 
Right now all I care about is Cowboys playing quality football, keep doing that and everything else takes care of itself.

12 games to go over nearly a three-months span....stay tuned.
 
The Eagles........

How many times have they been declared dead during a season only to slowly rise up, get on their feet, and recover just in time to defeat the Cowboys in a game #15-#16 in an elimination scenario? Huh? How many times?

When do we play them again?

Yup.....game #17.
