Well considering all prior years have ended with 9 wins or more your prediction of 2 more wins seems a little short.

I said two or three.. I gave myself an out there!

The Cowboys broke away from their tendencies big time with that play call. Glad they called for it on 2nd down as well.

That's what it takes to beat the Patriots and advance in the playoffs. Not over-relying on the same play calling methodology.

The Raiders could if the Chiefs fail here. As much as it seems the Chiefs are one of the elite, they really aren't at last year's level.

I get Chargers have Bosa but he's not the only Charger getting thru, their OL looks like a sieve right now

Ekeler is Kamara without the hype

And before that, Charvarius Ward, the corner we gave away for a WGAS guard that we felt we needed for "depth" in preseason.

The Chiefs have a lot of former Cowboys.

#42 Chiefs is quite the tubby.

Looks like the dwarf in Lord of the Rings

Archuleta buttoned up the conversation by saying, “One has to ask themselves, a $30 tie or a $30 mustache.” Dedes then replies, “Can we get you to grow the stache by next week?” And that’s when Archuleta responds, a little too confidently, that he “could probably squeeze out maybe a Dirty Sanchez, not really a full stache.”

During Bills-Dolphins game, Adam Archuleta says he could "squeeze out...a Dirty Sanchez" mustache, which doesn't mean what he thinks it means

The Buffalo Bills were in the midst of putting the finishing touches on their win over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday when CBS play-by-play announcer Spero Dedes and color commentator Adam Archuleta got into a discussion about grooming. Archuleta buttoned up the conversation by saying, “One has to...

I really hate fantasy football sometimes. I only need 15 points from Mahomes and he has....1.9

random NFL brawl for your pleasure...

Michael Bennett already leading the pre-game speech...not sure if that's a good or bad indicator, or both.

I think he had 2 sacks.

 

[1bigfan13]

Great throw off the back foot by Mahomes for the TD to Kelce.

 

[jsmith6919]

Nice td throw

Hardman has had a pretty damn good season so far for a rookie.

Could have beaten Minnesota with that type of play call.

You have been critical of Dak Prescott for being dink-and-dunk, implying that Dak's efficient starts are not helpful for this team to win in the playoffs.

This year, he's Top 5 passing stats.
- 463 yards vs Green Bay (#1 or #2 seed in NFC)
- 100.5 passer rating and a W vs Eagles, a legitimate division contender
- 397 yards and 101.4 passer rating vs a well-respected Vikings defense

so you can't call him dink-and-dunk anymore and now you're moving onto the New England Patriots, the greatest dynasty in NFL history.

With this standard, then Roger Staubach is a fucking dud because of his stats against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Good lord I’m not hammering Dak.

Far from it.

Its the fanboys who genuflect on just Dak and forget how average a product the team has been.

With the investment at OL, RB, and WR in contracts and draft picks, this offense was bound to be productive.

What I dislike is the focus on Dak, who is fantastic and has been heading that way since Cooper arrived, while completely ignoring how we had to fight to beat a depleted Detroit team by a TD.

That was Daks fault how? Dak was the one who got us up by 14. Dak didn't fumble the opening play to fall behind by 7. Dak and the recievers carried the team. And if the run game contributed at all we would have scored more.
