Tough to know, too much about a team, in May...........but
The COWBOYS lost Jason Witten and Dez Bryant, in the off season.......
They accounted for roughly 50%, of all the team receptions, and TDs.......
Witten was a security blanket for Romo and Prescott.
And Dez drew double coverage a lot. ( plus?)
Prescott will find out how much those guys mattered.....chemistry matters
The first three games will be interesting
Cole Beasley's receptions in 2017, were down, by more than 50% from 2016.
With a full year of Ezekiel Elliot......He should have about 700+ more yards rushing, than last season....
The Oline should be better and healthier........which means better running attack and time of possession...
But the offense, needs leadership from some player or players........no more Witten...
The defense will be better.
Better pass rush........D. Lawrence is playing for a big contract......
Linebackers could look a lot better......This could be a real good year for Jaylon Smith
The DBs have had another year of experience.......but safeties?????
Dan Bailey will be better
The schedule ON PAPER looks better for the BOYS, early in the season and late in the season.....
The BYE week is in the middle of the season
The middle part of the schedule is extremely tough..........
The Eagles may have actually improved
The Wash will probably be healthier......And Alex Smith is not too mobile a QB...
And the Giants..........have an old QB..but maybe a running game
The COWBOYS were 9 and 7 last season...........
and........it's too early to make predictions.........
but 10 and 6 may not make the playoffs.
and as it sits today......
How many teams in the NFC, are better than the COWBOYS?
