We need 8 more wins to get to 10 wins. Romo will play the last 7 games most likely. We can't realistic expect him to go 7-0 with opponents like Green Bay, Carolina, NY Jets and Buffalo. 6-1 would be great. 5-2 wouldn't be bad either. If Romo goes 6-1, we need Cassell to go 2-2. If he goes 5-2, we need Cassell to go 3-1. I'm not saying 10 wins is out of the question. I'm just saying it won't be easy. But then again, people thought after the Eagles game that we'd be 9-0 when Romo returned.

Who thought that?

Since when is Cassell a savior? Since when is our defense great - one good half after blowing two winnable games and no ability to get turnovers? An underachieving OLine? Befuddled coaches stuck in 2014?

Sorry we ain't going 8-3 or better with this squad

I'd be curious to see how effective the defense can be with a more balanced TOP. There's no question that they are more talented than last year's defense. Give them a similar situation as that D got and you could potentially see a much improved unit. Maybe not, but one game with most of their horses against one of the better offenses in the league and an offense that's allergic to first downs seems like a poor harbinger of things to come.

No one has any idea at this point because no one has actually seen the team play. Definitive statements based on incomplete information are certainly popular, but have no foundation at this point.

As bad as we look right now, we can still go 13-3. I know it isn't very likely or probable, especially without Tony and Dez......but if we beat the Giants on Sunday, we are 1 step closer to achieving that very record.

I'm sure you also predicted 12-4 last year.

We need cassel to win minimum 2 games...anything less than 2 games and this is over. You would ask Romo to go unbeaten which is highly unrealistic.
