I'd say we barely scrape by and end up being division winners, but if I'm being "realistic", I'll say that we'll finish first seed with the best record in the NFL at 13-3.

Because I think McCoy and Sproles will shred our injured/missing and banged up defense. I am not so sure our offense can even hang with Philly...points wise. We will need all hands on deck for those two games.

If we cant hang with a Mark Sanchez led offense, then we got some major problems.

In what scenario is it possible to avoid playing seahangs and fecals? I'd rather play Cards, Lions, Packers in that order. I don't like repeat games they terrify me...

Actually I'd rather play the Seahawks or Eagles than Lions/Packers. Those teams seem to give us problems. The other two: Seahawks/Eagles don't.

Call me stupid, an idiot or whatever for what I am about to say......

IMO, Sanchez can run that offense, maybe even better than Foles. I don't think they miss a beat once Mark plays a few games. I was never sold on Foles, decent but not a franchise QB(nor is Sanchez).

We have minimal pressure up front, missing linebackers(2/3) from week to week. I just see those two speedy backs giving us fits. I don't think it will be hard for them to get to that 2nd level in our defense.

That team worries me due to match-ups and nothing else. I feel we have a better chance against the Colts and hope we, at least, can split with them.

We have to get guys back and stay healthy after the bye. This team can not continue to play musical chairs on defense the last six games. Oh, and we need that starting line back and a healthy Romo too :flagwave:

I personally don't think the Eagles are going to do much because I don't see Mark Sanchez turning into a stud overnight, but I could be wrong. Maybe Chip Kelly has some secret potion that can turn Sanchez into an NFL QB:laugh:

That is the beauty of the NFL, there is no guessing involved, or jockeying for position in polls. Everybody gets a chance to play everybody else. We will have 2 games against the Eagles, so we will see how we match up. We will see how Mark Sanchez plays, we will see if we can keep pace with their high powered offense.

With the way we've played at home, we might be better off getting into the playoffs as the 6th seed.

Undefeated on the road (3-0).........................500 at home (3-3)

That is not the usual recipe for playoff teams, will be very strange if this pattern holds for the rest of the season. In fact, has there been a playoff team in recent years that was 500 or worse at home?

It's been 22 years since Dallas won a road playoff game. Time to end that streak.

3 months ago the discussion was what the Cowboys should do with their top 5 next year.

This thread is priceless.

In all fairness, even Jerry thought the team was going to suck this year. Usually he is talking playoffs and being a SB contender in preseason and this year he was like, "going to be an uphill battle".

He has said since then that the team has "far surpassed my expectations" this year.

Like I said, even Jerry thought we were going to suck.
