Still think Washington is our biggest threat?

[Sarge]

Our biggest threat is ourselves - we control our own destiny with a relative weak schedule.

 

[5Stars]

Agreed.

But....like most of us Cowboy fans have seen in the past...something will go terribly wrong. Either Romo throws an untimely pick or the defense lets the opposing team march down the field to win the game. lol

I'm not to worried about Philly and their little runt of a coach. And RGknee is not the best thing since sliced bread.

Now, Eli on the other hand, if he can close his eyes and throw up a duck for his receivers to catch on their helmet, he might be in the hunt. But I doubt it....

This Cowboy team have the division for themselves to win.

Not gonna happen this year. this Eli is not that Eli, not even close. They are old on defense, bad linebacking core and no running game. I get people looking over their shoulders at them but make no mistake about it, the Giants are done.

But, but...but, Eli has win two SB's and two MVP's. Screw all the other crap about how the defense is old, bad linebackers, no running game...it's Eli, bro! You know, the one that gets praised by Cowboy fans being an elite QB?

Hey, If Romo does not get any help from his team and is labeled a choker then why can't Eli? Plus his last name is Manning.

The only "threat" is the Eagles. The other two teams are toast.

The eagles don't scare me at all. Dog boy is always injured, and Foles has had maybe one good game and is really not the kind of QB that their runt coach likes to play. This is an opportunity for the Cowboys to win this division. Now, can they? I think they can.

 

[Red Dragon]

So what? One game against the Raiders. He did NOTHING against us. I tend to think that's the real Nick Foles.

When the Eagles play the Cowboys in Week 17 in the indoor environment of AT&T Stadium, I suspect Foles will play much better.

I'm with you. The Cowboys this year are the best of the worst. This season isn't about winning the division, it's about whether they can win some playoff games or if they're just a patsy for someone else's superbowl run.

If the Cowboys win the division, anything can happen. Can they get over that hump of not winning the big one? We are going to see if they can.

I don't get why so many think the Skins are done. If we lose to the Saints which is probable, we are two games ahead of them and still have to play them away. It's amazing what a win does to the fan base. Being in DC I know all too well how the Skins rebound from the dead. I think they are done when they reach 9 losses with this crap division and the same goes with all the other teams. If the Saints drop another Denver 50 bomb on us this zone will go back to the script that we followed after the Detroit loss. Yes I still think Washington is our biggest opponent. They won the division, have the best running game, have the same sorry defense we have, and a QB that is 2nd best in the division behind our QB. We will be in the thick of things for a while with the rest of the division. Get comfy.

I suspect he won't or he won't be playing at all.

I have never seen a team pull defeat from the jaws of victory as much as the Cowboys.............................LOL

haha.
Remember the game last year against the eagles where we're up two touch downs..
the game is virtually over..and we punt...and the KR for the eagles run it back? LMAO

Collinsworth said "only the cowboys.."

The Skins are down, but not out - not yet. On the other hand, the Aints are 6-2, but if you look at their schedule, they could easily be under .500 by the time they play the Rams. The Boys just need to give them a nudge in the right direction Sunday night. ( Their next 5 games they have the Cowboys, 49ers, and Panthers at home, the Falcons and Seahawks on the road. The Falcons have been playing them close recently, losing 24-17 in the Dome earlier this year, but the Falcons did beat them in Atlanta last year.)

well said and on point!!

Didn't read every post, so I don't know if this has been mentioned, but our biggest threat is ourselves.

 

[footballnflstyle]

Deadskins are cooked and done. IMO, only competition is Eagles in the division.

i bet you said that last year to..

The Chargers are the only NFL team I can think of that rival the Cowboys in that category.

They led the Broncos 24-0 last year, then gave up 35 consecutive points and lost 35-24.

They gave up a 4th-and-29 to the Ravens (allowed Ray Rice to convert the 4th-and-29 for a first down) and lost.

They led the Texans 28-7 in a game this year...........then gave up 24 consecutive points and lost.

You can't expect lightning to strike twice.

I don't think the Commanders will pull off another 6-1 run to finish this season, to put it logically.
