I thought it would be fun to go back and look at some of our original predictions and see if we're on track.

I still think we go into the bye at 3-2. The Giants game coming out of the bye (where we will have many of our horses back) is critical. Originally, I figured that to be a loss. I'm seeing a W now. The other critical game is 2 weeks late with Philly hosted in Big D. That Philly game is going to loom large. A win keeps us firmly planted in the NFCE drivers seat. A loss makes it complicated. I see us winning that game and getting both Tony & Dez back in the saddle for the home stretch at 6-4.

I don't trust Weeden and I don't think the coaches do. I think the only games we can win between now and Miami are Saints and Bucs.

Just trying to think big picture here. All is not completely loss in yesterday's debacle.

True. I don't think many expected us to run the table. There are too many factors involved to throw in the towel at this point.

We will get Gregory, Hardy, & RoMac back after the bye--maybe Dez too. I think that make NY, Sea, Philly, TB, & Miami very winnable.

I think when the season ends we will be at 6 and 10 or 7 and 9. To many injuries to many players out for extended time and the one coming back will take some time to get back in game shape such a season of promise lost before it every really started right now the cowboys are not a very good TEAM.
