And some of ya'll would consider that a success regardless of a Wild Card beatdown.

All it does is give us a worst draft pick.
I don’t consider that a success ? However any chance to get into the dance is what we should strive for -
Draft position ? I don’t recall an nfl season EVER being about draft position - draft position is a result of the season record but no nfl player or team should just sit back and say - whew at least we got a good draft position

Anything less than a conference championship appearance for this team is just wasted draft position.

Every game coming up on the schedule is against a team with a strong running game except the Commanders. Every one of those games are easily lost if we don't straighten out the run defense. 12-5 is optimistic.

Just because the iggles are undefeated and NY is winning games, don't think Dallas should be that much better.

When the season started, most fans though this was a 12-5 team or worse.

It's looking more and more like a 12-5 team.


No way this team goes 12-5. We are def going to lose at least 2-3 more games.

Fixed that for you. This team has its flaws but we're never going to have more talent than we do right now. So many guys playing above their paycheck. Pretty much now or never.

I said conference championship just because that would at least be further than they've been in almost 30 years lol

I threw them a little bone.

This circus team will be lucky to get to 8 wins. With the way Pierce runs in Houston, I really don’t think we can even beat them with the way our run defense would allow a baby to crawl 100 yards to get a TD.

This is not a 12-5 team lol
we will be 6-5 a few weeks from
now .
Trash QB , Trash owner , Trash coach , the team sucks like it has always sucked since late 90s. Micah was playing out of his mind if not this team would be 1-8.
GARBAGE TEAM

10-7 and first round loss to Vikes, Bucs, or Niners. Then we can lament when Philly in Super Bowl and possibly winning.

I had em at 11-6. My beef was that we should've done more to get over the hump.

This club isn't going anywhere until Quinn figures out how to stop the RUN! Teams are now running at will on his defense and he either doesn't know how to deal with this or his players are that BAD! Sure they've looked beastly at times against some teams because they've figured out how to get to the QB on passing downs, but the real problem is ALL the OCs in the league have a blueprint on how to beat this defense and teams are having GREAT success against the Boys NOW. Rogers and his lowly Packers came into this game with one thing in mind and that was to keep handing the ball off to his backs and when the Boys get nice and tight on that O-Line hit them deep against a lousy secondary. It worked to perfect perfection and once again Quinn had no answers. The ALL EVERYTHING LBer Parsons looked like a lost and defeated with his lousy (5) tackles! The LBer group on this team is a joke and until it's upgraded this team will continue to give up 100s of RUNNING yards a game!

well that interesting because they have done that consistantly and still are know for having very good drafts. Some of the best drafts in the league. It just chaps you because they dont draft high enough for the likes of Bryce young or stroud or Hooker etc. Newsflash the cowboys believe they have a franchise QB and they mistakenly overpaid which is their MO. The problem to me is more about not being a bit more agressive in FA.

They have had more than 1 opportunity to to get over the hump in playoffs.Theyve not been blown out and I suspect they will have another this year. No run defense No win in playoffs

They have three losses now.

They still have to go to Minnesota. They still have to play Philly. They still have to go to Tennessee.

The team that showed up in GB and spit the bit could be a 6 or 7 loss team.
Also the Thanksgiving game against the Giants and the last game of the season in DC are not going to be easy. It is "suck it up time" or this team will be about 12-5 or even worse.
