Would an 0-2 start surprise you?

[Pass2Run]

These team will end the season with a winning record, so Dak doesn't win either of the first two.

An 0-2 start wouldn't surprise me in the least -- in fact, I'm fully prepared to deal with it.
I'm giddy with a division crown! Modest expectations are my friends, these days!

While I’m trying to approach this season from an optimistic perspective, the more I step back and look at the current circumstances, the more worried I become.

I’m looking at a rookie left tackle with limited reps, a reputation for holding, and recovering from a high ankle sprain lining up to plan B at left guard.

I’m looking at a receiving group in flux, waiting for its’ #2 to be able to play recovering from major knee surgery.

And I’m also looking at a tough start to the season via scheduling.

I can’t help but to think that we will be spending most of the season clawing back from an 0-2 deficit.

How does everyone else feel?

If our team is anything like last year's, and this was some time during the middle of the season, I would fully expect to lose to both of these teams. But the first 2 weeks? Yeah it would surprise me.

People have to stop treating the first week or 2 like any other game. No team is truly who they are in the first few weeks. Anything can happen. Does anyone think the Packers would have lost to the Saints 38-3 in week 8?

Nope and a 2-0 start won't either.

 

[Diehardblues]

I dont see the Cowboys beating the Colts, Titans, Packers or Vikings. The whole schedule is tough.

Those are definitely tough matchups. I had us losing both the GB and Tenn game . And at Minn is a tough matchup as is Indy at home. But don’t think we’ll lose all 4.

 

[Beast_from_East]

Surprised?

An 0-2 start is expected.

Exactly!

Does anybody really think Dallas is better than Tampa or Cinci?

The obvious answer is no...................if Dallas wins either of those games, it will be an upset, so 0-2 should be expected.

0-2 would not surprise me.
Neither would 2-0.

I think the Viking game is thier best chance. Dak plays against the Colts like he does against Denver.
