Cowboy season predictions

Ok I am a non Cowboy fan. In fact I would cheer for any team that plays them even a a college team.
I think injuries will hamper them all year. Expect that line that went mostly clear of injuries last year to become much less effective with out the quality running back they had last year. Defense is still not where it needs to be. First give games Eagles, Pats, Saints Gaints and Falcons.
They could start the year with two or even three losses. Pats, Saints and Eagles. Hardy's return too little too late take two or three games to get into the flow of the defense. Next four games Gaints again, Seahawks, Eagles again. Half way point three and five at best 4 and 4. Rest of the season gets much easier.
Finish off strong to a 10 and 6 record missing play offs
sorry

11-5 and will make the playoffs. Dez will go off this year and Romo will have another career year like last year. God help us with injuries tho...
You have a good point there, the Cowboys are Gods' team so maybe praying is the best chance they have.

When Rono gets injured maybe Dez can "go off" by throwing the ball to himself, we know Weeden can't throw it to him.

It is interesting to read a bunch of you guys comments again!!!!
Only one person mentioned Demarco "Hangnail" Murray in the preseason comments. Personally I don't remember anything special about him till the third Rams game. Rams got so far ahead and started the prevent defense, so LInehan started running the ball every down. It worked. Dallas scored consistently and Rams never had the ball much and lost all momentum.

I was thinking 13/3 this year till Scandrick got hurt. Now I think 12/4 again. They will be fun to watch again this year and see how they do.

Dallas 35 NYGiants 14

Defeat snatched from the jaws of victory. That's the Eli Manning we know and love. Knew the bad decision would come sooner or later.

My comments were pretty accurate last year.

Hope they are this year too.

Dez is out 4-6 weeks with broken bone in foot. Hardy out till game 5. New stud DE has a sprained ankle. Not going to be a good start...
A win is a win in this league. Just ask Seattle. Week to week. Injuries don't count.

HUGE fucking loss. The funny thing is Dez is the one guy I would have expected not to get injured. Rono, Hill or Claiborne yeah, but Dez no way.

The only reason they won is because the Giants coaching staff made an incredibly stupid blunder and called a pass play on third down which stopped the clock and gave the Cowboys about 25 extra seconds.

So they barely won against one of the worst teams in the league which they were expected to win easily against.

It looks like Dez will be "going off" this year. Off the field.

I think the Cowgirls will have another 8 and 8 season
They should have kept Murray
But they will have a better season than the Giants

The Cowboys will get Dez and Greg Hardy back around the same time, they'll be okay. Terrence Williams can hold down the fort. The division is weak, even though I still think they might finish second to the Eagles. I forgot Chip Kelly is an idiot, his decision not to challenge that Jordan Matthews touchdown and sitting DeMarco Murray cost me at least $1500 on Fanduel last night.
Dez's injury hasn't been completely diagnosed yet. Originally the report was from 4-6 weeks, but on the news tonight they said it could be as much as 10 weeks.

So Dallas 20, Giants 9........still a win......

Atlanta......8 carries for 9 yards. He is now in 81st place among NFL rushers. BTW, Randle is 12th and McFadden is 61st.

Exactly! That's not the reason we won. We won because we capitalized on mistakes and Tony drove us right down the field to win it by 1 pt!! Go Cowboys!
