Assuming we can draft 2 or 3 immediate starters at OL/DL/S, there is absolutely no reason we shouldn't start the season 4-0 or 3-1.
Between the Week 5-8 stretch, we need AT LEAST 2 or even better, 3 wins against DEN, WAS, PHI, and DET. We must find a way to win 1 of the games out of NO and CHI.
December schedule is tough, once again. Between GB, WAS, and PHI to close out the season, we'll have to win 2 of those games to secure the NFC East crown. Most likely no other way to get into the playoffs since WC winners will be from other divisions.
I can see us getting anywhere from 9-11 wins this season. If we have a superb draft, Jason Garrett gets his head out of his ass, and the defense gets pressure and generates turnovers, we're looking at a 13-win ceiling for this team. I know, that's a lot of IFs
We're winning the division this year. Won division in 07 and 09 years. Lost division on the last day of the season in 08, 11, and 12. Numerically, we're the most consistent team at competing for division crowns in the NFC East the past 6 seasons.
