The Cowboys are going to win the Superbowl unless someone important gets hurt. And they will probably win next year also and maybe even push for an undefeated year.

I really thought the Patriots were gonna do it that year and it saddened me when they lost. The Cowboys, I think, have the foundations to have that kind of run. And I want to see them do it next year.

a neat cape posted:Yeah that seems a stretch coming off the Cowboys barely beating probably the worst run and cursed team in the NFL, the Baltimore Ravens The Ravens were a bad matchup for the Cowboys. I even said the Ravens had an ok shot at an upset. But even though we stopped Elliot they were still able to take full control of the game. The Cowboys next year(assuming the team isn't about to get blown up in the offseason due to contracts and free agency) will be like something we haven't seen since those 2007 Patriots. A team in a class of its own. Well maybe their defense has to improve a little for that but it might you never know and they still have draft picks they can use to fill holes. Cause they're stacked on offense.

I dunno. Kind of getting a 2015 Panthers vibe from the Cowboys. Good enough to make a strong playoff run, but certainly shouldn't be 15-1 good and will very likely regress next year after the wear and tear of extra playoff games and having to face a tougher schedule. Plus they'll have to pay that line sometime, and that won't be cheap.

The Cowboys are less like the 2015 Panthers and more like the 2007 Patriots. Or the 2009 Colts. Or the 2007 Cowboys, if you prefer. Last year's Panthers may have been less good than their record, but they weren't wildly unbalanced. With regard to the line, you don't know what you['re talking about--Tyron Smith's on a team-friendly contract til 2023, Travis Fredrick is under contract through 2023, Zack Martin's fifth-year option has been picked up, so he's signed through 2018, La'el Collins is signed through 2017, and Doug Free is signed through 2017. Backup tackle Chaz Green is signed through 2018. Only Ron Leary is a free agent next year. The Cowboys may overperform this year, but the more likely scenario is that they improve on defense next year by drafting defensive help and filling gaps with the (marginal) cap room they create by trading Romo.

Wasn't sure what to think after last year, since they never beat a team with a winning record. Too bad for them that the rest of the division improved a lot at the same time. TheChirurgeon posted:
Huh. I sit corrected. Will be interesting to see how they try to hold everything together going forward. I definitely don't see that team as a 2007 Patriots, though. That team was absolutely unstoppable until they got to the Giants (both in that regular season win and the Super Bowl).

With the Patriots the team just cooled off after the first 10 games or so. They weren't nearly as dominant in the postseason as they were in those first 10 games, and really a loss to the Giants wasn't too impossible to see coming. They almost lost to the Giants in the regular season in game 16 that year if you remember. But what I mean about the Cowboys being possibly the next 2007 Patriots is the way that team dominated games. You couldn't keep up with their offense and even if you could their defense was good enough to stop you. You couldn't get into a shootout with them they were just a step ahead of the other teams in the NFL. And with the Cowboys I see that potential. Right now they are a dominant team but they have a weakness in their defense and the question mark of a rookie QB. But now you go into next year, and what if Prescott improves? That's a scary thought. And they have Ezekiel Elliot which is a sort of thing the 2007 Patriots didn't have. They have a Randy Moss that's Dez Bryant. They have a Wes Welker that's Beasley. They have all those pieces. The Patriots had a better defense and a true elite QB but they had no Ezekiel Elliot. They also didn't have that offensive line quite like the Cowboys have. So that brings us to next year. Prescott and Elliot and that line will still be there. I assume Bryant and Beasley will also be around. Maybe Witten too? I don't know if he'll retire yet or not. Maybe some of those guys won't be and I just don't know. But if those guys are around and that offensive line. Then that brings us to the defense. Everyone knows that's the weak link right now so they have this offseason to improve it. And a lot of the bad parts come from injuries right now. So with draft picks and maybe sign some free agents. They only need a decent defense. So then you have the recipe. Remember the KC Chiefs went like 10-0 back in 2003 or 4 I forget which one with that killer offensive line. And this line is the closest thing to that that exists. So they have that and the same amazing and maybe even better offensive cast. And they have the offseason to improve the defense. So this is why I believe that in the 2017 season the Dallas Cowboys will go 19-0. Unless they get injuries to key players. I do not think the team is even beatable if they are functioning. And you know Jerry Jones is going to want to see that.

I only mentioned them as similar because they were also an unbalanced team whose only loss was to the Giants. This team isn't going to go 16-0 Well this team can't go 16-0. Because they already lost game 1. And they will probably drop a game or two more maybe even in the playoffs against Seattle. But next year they can be even better than this year. What I mean with the 2007 Patriots is a team that's strong enough on offense to blow everyone away. Those Chiefs that year lost because in the playoffs the Colts were able to outgun them on offense. It was an offensive shootout and the Colts won. But if the Cowboys improve their defense, nobody can beat them. I hope they can do it. I want to see it so bad. And I also want to see a trophy made just for it.

I could see Romo going to KC - I believe they can cut Smith for very little hit if they want to and that's really all the team needs. Jets would also be a good spot for him as they have a lot of good pieces and Brady is due to fall off some day soon.
