Our line is clearly the best in the league, even if they're not perfect, and Dak has been reading defenses far better than most rookies ever since, say, week 3. I didn't really want to admit it because of how much I love Tony Romo, but the dude's for real. We'll at least win in the Divisional round, though if we get the Giants or Packers, it will be a tough game. Then I truly believe we can beat Seattle. New England... ugh... I have hope, but they are the best team in the last two decades.
Beat Seattle....I have to disagree.....if you stop Dez bryant and zeke, that offense has nothing to scare anyone with......jason witten even though he's good still doesn't scare defenses anymore like he used to a few years ago with his tony gonazalez type run after catch ability. Seattle has really good wr's that are fairly consistent....maybe not wow players but solid ones non the less....a great TE in Jimmy Graham and a spectacular defense which can man up on the opponent's star players.....allowing the defense to be ultra aggressive....I think the cowboys will fail against the first opponent they face just b/c rookies tend not to do so well when the pressure is on....it may be a stepping stone like ben roethlisberger who lost the afc championship his rookie year after a stellar reg season but went on to get better and win in the playoffs several years running.....
The pressure has been on all year. They play in Dallas, second only to New York in media scrutiny. When the pressure was on to lock up a playoff spot, we did it. When the pressure was on to lock up the division, we did it (although one game later than we could have). When the pressure was on to clinch the #1 seed, we did it. When the pressure was on because Tony Romo was getting healthy, Dak played lights out and made it so they couldn't take him out of the lineup. When defenses load the box to stop Zeke, Dak throws all over the defense. When the defensive plays pass, Elliott rips through them like paper. This team is loaded.
Also, Seattle has not been good lately. Not at all. I think they will get better come playoffs (they always do), but they have been bad lately.
Dak may want to get some advice from Romo not to go to mexico with his gf like Romo did a few years ago with Jess Simpson.... use that bye week to prep hahaha instead of knocking back shots of tequila in mexico....
