Here we are, already at the midway point of the season. The Cowboys are sitting at a disappointing 4-3. All 3 of our losses were avoidable.
The saints game we allowed a backup to beat us. There were a few bad calls that if called correctly would have given us the win.
The Packers, at home, came in and blew our doors off in the 1st half, leaving to much of a hill to climb to win that game.
The jets game, the worst of the 3, could be the reason we miss the post season all together. You don't lose to a winless team if you're a playoff team, it's that simple. In fact, that loss probably eliminated us from the wildcard spots all together imo.
The rest of the NFC has teams with pretty good records at the midway point.
NFC West has the 49ers undefeated and looking strong, the Seahawks at 6-2 and the Rams at 5-2. We play the Rams so maybe we could beat them for a wildcard spot but Seattle and SF are looking strong.
NFC North is a 2 team race. Green Bay at 6-1 and a win over us and Minnesota at 6-2.
Doubt we beat out green bay, maybe Minnesota for a wildcard spot only because we play them.
NFC South has 2 teams. The Saints at 7-1 and a win over us and the Panthers at 4-2 (they are currently getting destroyed by the 49ers 44-14) we could get a wildcard over Carolina but probably not the Saints.
NFC East, Fortunately we're undefeated in the division at 3-0. The eagles are sitting at 4-4 and 1-1 in the division. IMO the only way the Cowboys make the postseason is by winning the division outright over the eagles which is doable.
The 2nd half of our season is definitely the hardest part of our schedule.
