Strength of Schedule will be middle of the pack

We will be tied for 15th as far as strength of schedule next year from how teams did this year. Texans have the easiest schedule, Packers hardest.

A middle of the pack schedule shouldn't do anything to inhibit our chances of enjoying a more successful year than last.

Here's hoping the easier schedule, improved offensive line play and the new asst. coaches produce some improvement.

Meh......anything can happen from year to year in this league. Did Goff and the Rams, and NO scare anyone last offseason?

I agree just thought I'd mention it. Another example the Texans who we face next season went without Deshawn Watson most of the season and ended with a terrible record. If Watt and Watson can stay healthy they're probably going to be really good.

Yes they are, but it will take time for Watson and his style of play. Bill O'Brien is one hell of a coach. I'm jealous.

I don't know man Watson was putting up record breaking numbers before he was hurt. They scored 57 against the Titans, 33 against the Pats, 34 against the Chiefs, 38 against the Seahawks. It was ungodly. I don't think Watson will need much time.

I should clarify, coming back from his injury I meant. Running around on that ACL.

Watson is a stud and I knew he would be. I can't remember seeing a college player that impressed me more that he did in those 2 NC games.
 
A preseason “strength of schedule” rating IMO is almost worthless. Unlike college football, where you can look at a team’s schedule and have a pretty good idea of what it’s up against, pro football is extremely difficult to predict year to year. How many of us said The Jags were headed to the AFC championship game last year at this time?

I’ve always believed all NFL schedules are tough...every year. There isn’t a team on our 2018 schedule that we can’t beat. And every team on it can beat us as well.
 
SOS, as projected in February, will likely have little to do with how our opponents are faring by the time we play them.

FA signings, the draft, trades, cuts, preseason and/or reg-season injuries...all will have more relevance and bearing than what a computer spits out 8 months or so beforehand, which is based on stats from last season.
 
Strength of schedule is so meaningless, it's only behind power rankings on the list.

Not only is this a year to year league, it's much closer to a week to week league.
 
This "middle of the road" schedule is interesting. Kinda neat how they decipher their formula but as we all know what happened the year prior doesn't mean squat.

The ***** Packers #1 toughest schedule has them playing the Vikes twice, and the Falcons at home. Then the LA BillyGoats, Patsies, and SeaChickens away. That's 6 playoff teams

We on the other hand play 7 playoff teams: Iggles twice, Saints and Jags at home, then Falcons, SeaChickens, Panthers. That's 7 playoff teams but the Fudgies have a tougher schedule ... right! How many times them ***** Packers playing the Iggles again??????

This strength of schedule thingy is a pile of bovine scat.
 
Funny thing is that we always hover around 8-8 during the Garrett era and the teams we play next year have a combined record of 128-128. Smh.
 
The best thing about the schedule is the Seattle game. Century Link Field is Where me and my 12 year old will be enjoying his first Cowboys game. Im proud of this kid. He's more die hard than most of us, Defends the star probably more than any other 11-12 year olds have to, and has spent his entire 11 years of life learning the history of our beloved Cowboys. He was braonwashed since birth. Where, as he was delivered, he was being covered up with a Cowboys blanket. Sometimes he hits me in the gut with h annual "dad, why'd you do this to me, we suck, always have and always will" talk, but it doesn't stop his complete 1000% love for the Dallas Cowboys. Shoot, sometimes he gives me hope to keep beleaving that one day things will change: I can't wait for this game coming up in Seaturd land this year!
 
when I see the additions to the team this off season and how we come out of camp I'll start thinking about this
This is a big off season
