This is a 12-5 team

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.

I've been reading here about the Cowboys great drafts for years yet what have they got to show for them?

I don't care about next day draft grades or Pro Bowl votes. Teams are measured by postseason success.

The Cowboys will be lucky to win 10 games. They would have to win 4 out of their last 7. Just coming away with one win in the next two games is going to be tough. They just made a bad Packers team look like the Packers of old. Once again the Cowboys are being exposed as a fraud.

I’m not buying 12-5. Strong running teams are still on the schedule and Justin Jefferson and a reinvented Kirk Cousins are up next. Giants, Titans and Eagle still coming up

10-7 at best
What scares me is that the formula for winning is no longer successful. The formula was get a lead to stop teams from running and then T Off on the QB. The run defense is so bad, that the best way to get back in games even down multiple scores is to run on us.

On one hand…we play very well against division foes typically…and no one should be scared of Kirk cousins whom we’ve also owned…on the other…we can suck against anyone

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.
this is a one and done team in the play offs if they make it there.

Dallas could very easily have 5 losses by Thanksgiving evening. I think your being too optimistic.

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.
Wash is running the hell out of the ball against the iggles.

I mean your entitled to your opinion ..I think they’ve had the horses it’s the coaching that has lacked and they also have not had the horses on both sides of the ball.
The nfl has other teams that have drafted well and haven’t achieved post season success Dallas isn’t the only flop
I’d love to have another super bowl. I’m just no longer getting worked up about it. I think the problems are more on FA periods.

at worst I've always said 10-7. At best, yeah...12 wins. Either scenario will be a wildcard game and an early exit. The defense is again, a liability. Unless DQ waves his magic wand and we suddenly play better, we cant beat the elite teams. A 11 win team may actually miss the playoffs this year. We preferably need 12 wins.

iggles looking like a 13-4 team.
yes, at least. I think 14-3. They will drop 2 more, thats it. We just don't deserve 2 win the div. just yet. Im being honest. Hurts drives the entire team..if he gets dinged ^, that can change things drastically. Running QB's tend 2 wear down as the season goes because they have a heavier workload and take more hits. Lets see what happens.
