This is the weakest the playoffs have been since 2010

If there was ever a time for this coaching staff and our core group of players to get to a Super Bowl, this is it. Brady is on his out and Bowles is one of the worst coaches in the league, we should beat the Bucs by double digits. The toughest competition after this are the Eagles - I don't want to crap out Purdy because he has played well for the 49rs, but he's also a rookie and we should have no business losing to one. Eagles and whoever we face in the Super Bowl, if we get there, will be our toughest competition.

If we don't win it this year, I have no confidence we are able to do it going forward. Conferences don't stay weak for long, look how quickly the AFC loaded up again after legends retired. Same will happen in the NFC.

If Tua and Lamar was playing it could have been of the best. To bad Detroit didn’t make it over Seattle.

I’m seeing a lot of fans saying this is the Cowboys best chance to get to a Super Bowl because there aren’t any great teams this season but the problem is the Cowboys aren’t that good. They’re not just limping into the playoffs they’re staggering in. I wouldn’t bet on them beating anyone in the playoffs right now. If they had the defense/pass rush they had earlier in the season and Dak was playing more consistently and not turning the ball over every week they might have a shot. Just getting past an 8-9 team on Monday night is going to be an uphill battle.

An odd year for sure......hell, in any other year, our 12-5 record wins the division and maybe home field. In the last few years, 9-11 win takes the division. As stated by OP........NFC is wide open

Totally agree,this is the best situation as for getting to the SB we've had in a long time...if we choke again this year,then we are truly screwed..

DONT CHOKE COWBOYS... PLEASE!!!!!

Yeah, they are a different team with him. A fully healthy Dolphins team would have been dangerous.

But now? If you took the Bills with the money line, you have to put up $850 just to win 100 bucks.

This team is definitely over achieved. The defense is not that great mini holes just like the Offensive side . Youth. Helped us out.

SF is easily the best team in the NFC. Purdy has been exactly what they needed at QB.

LOL he's looking pretty good to me too. As good or better than Garoppolo. Everyone is expecting him to choke, and he's not done so in 6 straight games.

But will this 23 year old, last pick in the 7th round be able to handle the pressure of a championship game? Or the playoffs in general. It's been quickly thrust upon him.

Not with a rookie QB they aren't.

Long as Mr. Irrelevant doesn't throw pics they will be tough to beat. Their defense is nasty and Christian M. is really really good. They have a great TE as well that can actually block (Novel concept here in Dallas) and he is also a great receiver and a talented runner after the catch. I think even with a rookie QB they are the team to beat..

I am of the belief you cannot run this back if we do not at least get to the NFC title game. We actually had no business letting the Eagles...with Jalen Hurts only in his 2nd year as a full time starter....becoming the best team in the NFC. This happens because there front office is superior to ours.

Changes are a must if we don't get to the NFC title game.
