The Year the Cowboys Made the Playoffs (we hope)

I had the Cowboys at 5 & 11. They have accomplished way more than I thought they would. They would be dangerous if they had a shutdown defense. I think they might win 1 playoff game but hell, what do I know, I had them at 5 & 11. What pisses me off is that they beat Seattle but thanks to stupid 3 team tiebreakers, head to head doesn't matter and they will be #3 seed. They should be the #2 seed if they end up with the same record as Seattle barring a GB and Detroit tie. Originally Posted by TSPURS123

The first tie breaker is head to head, not conference record. In a 3 way tie, it is conference record since Green Bay and Dallas did not play and that puts Dallas at the #3 seed. Tie breaks starts all over between Seattle and the North winner, if Green Bay, Seattle won head to head, if Detroit, Seattle also wins the tiebreak due to a higher winning percentage among common opponents.

I know we still need to wait 'n see next week's outcomes, but I'm thinking you're gonna get your wish per that match up......


I would love to see our O line and running game go up against the Lions.that team has a stud d line. Originally Posted by bpowers20

Then either get a DT in the second round or via free agent and there is one quarterback that will be overlooked/UTR and if Dallas can get him in the 4th or later rounds, then that would be the way to go to replace Romo in a couple of years as the franchise quarterback, His name is Bo Wallace of Ole Miss, check out his stats! http://espn.go.com/college-football/...990/bo-wallace

BTW, Dallas can clinch a first round bye regardless of the outcome of the Detroit/Green Bay game if Seattle loses to St. Louis AND Arizona loses to San Francisco.

I'm fucking giddy the way these somebitches are playing. Used to be if they ended up with 12-4 records they would get to the Super Bowl or at least the NFC Championship. It still pains me that they went 13-3 (tied for the franchise record) and lost in Divisional Round back in 07. Need Seattle and Arizona to lose to get the #2 seed cause a Lions GB tie ain't happening. Hell, maybe they will be better off with the #3 seed to keep mojo going. How bout dem fucking Cowboys!!
