Will we be eliminated by Thanksgiving Day based on these next 4 games after the Bye?

We're not eliminated but should be. Or eliminate ourselves.

As it is cannon fodder teams make the playoffs so the NFL makes more money.
This is the problem for a 'nearly' team like Dallas, with 45% of teams making the playoffs they don't give up as quickly as they should to be a benefit.

It was better to watch when it was a 12 game season and only 30% of teams made the playoffs. Bad teams knew who they were earlier.

It’s no longer about how many games we win. It’s about how many times we can be totally embarrassed in a single season.

Sadly not. Winning and losing isn’t a coin toss. This team is bad and I’ll go as far to say that if they don’t come out of their bye week and play significantly improved, they’re giving up.
I still believe in core guts of this team. (5 turn-overs ?)

The 49ers haven't been impressive this season. I they if they beat the Chiefs, then they'll beat Dallas. If not, then we probably beat them and people will start talking Superbowl lol

at Niners
at Falcons
Eagles
Texans

at Commanders....Thanksgiving. Will this team be 3-7 or 4-6? How many wins do you see? Possibly the eagles and falcons?
The Cowboys have a bye and Parsons/Bland should return. The Cowboys can go 2-2 in that stretch. Sadly we will finish 8-9 or 9-8 and miss out on a blue chip draft prospect. Or worse, make the playoffs and get embarrassed again.

This thread is ridiculous. The Cowboys are one game removed from qualifying for the playoffs, and that's exactly the number of games it would take to be back in that race. Stop crying because the Cowboys lost one game which temporarily set the team outside the playoffs.
In sports, point differential is usually a better predictor of future performance than record. Close wins and losses can come down to fluke plays or bad calls. Blow someone out or get blown out and that says a lot about you as a team.

Dallas is currently 25th in point differential. I don't think fans are being crazy when they question the final W/L record of the team.

They will go 1-3 in the next 4 games and the 1 win will be against atl or sf and will keep us at 500....

in some cases, the body is still active after a quick death before it realizes its dead.

thats us. we re dead, people just wont accept it.

its like being 2-7 and some fans still thinking we can make the playoffs.

Lol, good analogy. Let’s be real, what are we going to do if make the PO.

We were out of the playoffs before the season began.

As for the next 4, the Eagles might allow us a win.

The others play good, hard nosed football. Barring injuries or flukes, have a hard time not seeing those as multiple score losses. Ya'll do realize, our offense hasn't done much scoring against anyone right?

when are some of their injured players coming back though?
According to reports, their main guy {McCaffrey} "might" return in a few weeks.. But I'm pretty sure it's going to be all hands-on deck next week when they face the Chiefs.
