Maybe a fast start and a good finish and just hold on in the middle?

I really love this schedule. It is completely fair.

Don't like going to Philly after a Monday night game. Other than that I like it.

The Philly game is Sunday night and the Monday night game the week before is at home. So not really a big deal for us. Bigger issue is that Philly has a bye the week before (but at least coming off London game).

Then it gets made up on the second round with Philly when we have a week and a half off because we play Thursday the previous week and they play Monday night Against Wash so short rest for them

It just must be an 8-8 league for real now and I think a lot more highly of my team than most of the so called experts. I'm seeing mostly 9-7 predictions for us. A few 10-6 and a few 8-8. I know predictions in April mean absolutely noting and lots of things will change. Heck A few injuries and we could be 4-12. I get that, but one guy said they are having a hard time finding a 10th win on our schedule lol. I look at it and see 12-4, 11-5. I usually give us too much credit for home games though and we aren't known to be a dominating home team

 

[Nasty_Magician]

I try not to invest much in the schedule just because we have absolutely no clue what variables will come in to play.

 

[ArlingtonCowboys100]

11-5 if things go right and we hit on draft picks. Cowboys getting salary cap in order for possible playoff push in 2019

Everything went right for Philly last year

They did have a lot go their way, but they also lost their franchise QB. I think the key for them was the OL and DL. All the talk about the Dallas OL, but Philly's was a lot better last year. Hopefully that reverses itself this year.

Lost franchise QB and then the back up played just as well if not better.

Agree. I find it funny how they continued to say Dak's rookie season was only a product of the OL, while Wentz was all about Wentz.

 

[ROMOTOOWENS]

The Eagles lost a big Oline guy last year too. Is Wentz going to be healthy at the start of the season?

That is what scares me. If a stud D tackle is thier at 19, I want Dallas to take him instead of a WR. Our D line has to be upgraded.

still think that the #1 weakness on our defense is our LB corps followed by the DT and Safety positions

Yup. you never pass on what could be a great player just to fill a hole. I'd love it if the team saw a WR they think will be a superstar, but for me I see guys at others positions (that happen to be needs as well) that I like a lot more. good players will get on the field and contribute regardless of the depth chart

That is true, but I dont see a top LB there at 19. Seem like a DT is more likely to be there.

 

[jarntt]

My top two choices are still Vea and R Smith. I'm hoping at least one is still there

A true run clogging DT would have a great affect on the LBs.
