What a Difference a Win Makes

[ChronicCowboy]

Cinncinatti is not a bad team, just a bad matchup for our Dline. The first game against Pittsburgh was also a bad matchup for their Oline.

I think they will be fine but they don't have an easy one this week either!

Cincy got hot at the right time last season. They made the playoffs on a miracle. I think they played over their heads last December and January.

This is way way too early, but it is discussion material.
This was an important win over the NYG. It was a divisional game, and keeps us a game behind the Eagles.

Anyway last week Dallas was at a 54% of no playoffs, win it moved to 48%, loss dropped them to 58%.
Here it is for this week. Though it really has not changed, as it depended on other teams. They are at 50% now.

Now this is where the jump was made. Last week the Cowboys were like #12 of 16.
But with the win, and other teams losses, they jumped to #6.

Yes, this means nothing at this point. But here it is to build up or tear down.

When I saw the thread title I first thought about the mood of this forum, but this info is good too.
