ACTUALLY the all rookie secondary will gel quickly and Nolan Carroll will enjoy a career resurgence and Jaylon Smith will wiggle his toes into the opponent's backfield all year long. Taco and David Irving will intimidate offensive lines with sheer arm length and Jeff Heath will be a pro bowl safety. The offensive line will take no hit with Doug Free retiring and Ron Leary leaving because La'el Collins will be the best right tackle in the league and Jonathan Cooper was a first round pick once. Dak will continue to improve and Dez will manage to stay healthy all year. Rico Gathers will become a dominant tight end receiving force because he played basketball. Ezekiel Elliot will help them keep the ball 40 minutes a game and keep the defense fresh and we'll ride all the way to a dominant super bowl BIIITCH

Ok, hypothetical scenario: Elliott tears something in his knee in game 1 and is done for the year. What are your expectations for Dak Prescott?

Oh lord, it wouldn't be good. Elliott is crucial to the team. The running game can be effective with the backup, Darren McFadden, but it certainly would not be dominant. Elliott was the MVP for the team last year because he could turn two yard gains into four or five yard gains consistently. He can run any amount of inside zone, outside zone, gap schemes, pass protection, receiving, etc. Prescott could play conservatively all year long because he was consistently in favorable down and distance situations. If Elliott's knee explodes week 1, I would expect Prescott's interceptions to rise and completion percentage to fall. However, I also think he would put up more yards and TDs because he would be pressing for bigger plays. I think Prescott would still be a good QB, but if fans expect him to will the team back from deficits and in close games (like Romo did all career long), they will be disappointed. Elliott going down puts way more pressure on Prescott to do the heavy lifting, so he will make more mistakes and probably turn in a worse overall year.

Can it? He average 3.6 yards/carry last season which was his second highest yards/carry since 2011.

poo poo, that's more of a comment on how good the offensive line is than anything else. It's wishful thinking to think McFadden and Alfred Morris will be consistently effective, but they won't poo poo themselves and run into their own blockers, either. I watched McFadden run for over a thousand yards during the Brandon Weeden/Matt Cassel fiasco, and it wasn't because McFadden was making dudes miss in space. He wasn't powering his way through stacked boxes, either.

Agreed. Garrett is a poo poo coach


One of the things that never gets talked about is the hit the team took when Callahan left. He was a massive pickup for Washington and Linehan is a clear step down

Absolutely. I've been thinking this every time I watch Washington. I don't mind Linehan's play-calling save for some complaints here and there, but Callahan is a fantastic offensive line coach.

Jason Garrett is seemingly content with never ever pushing the ball down the field, and every year without noted aggressive passer Tony Romo makes it more blatant.

Dallas is a mediocre team propped up by a few star players. The Eagles have more talent throughout their roster.

Yeah, Dallas has been this way for a very long time. They're starting to hit on their draft picks, though. Their third round corner is already the best on the team, the second and sixth rounders both figure to be significant defensive backs, and last year's third rounder is a pretty good pass rushing defensive tackle. Don't forget the youth of the Smith, Martin, Frederick, Collins, Dak, and Zeke. They're primed to provide a strong core for several years, but there are a lot of question marks and aging players throughout the rest of the roster. I think similar of the Eagles, for what it's worth, expect their young core is geared much more toward the defensive side than the offensive, and their aging players are performing much better this season.

We're primed for a bunch of good years between these two teams. The Giants have almost no young core at all. They're a huge loving mess. Washington isn't quite as bleak, but the lack of talented youth is also a major concern. Cowboys and Eagles will run this division for the next several years barring some unlikely drafts. Look forward to this rivalry catching fire once again.

Y'all gonna be surprised by how well the Cowboys play without Zeke. Dak is much better than widely thought. He doesn't make many of the flashy downfield plays, but I am very confident he will do well. The offensive line is playing at an elite level. It will struggle against great defensive lines like the Eagles, but it is going to to make the other Cowboys running backs look good every other week.

Look forward to the Eagles vs. Cowboys playoff game. It will be the zenith of this year's thread.

Well, at least Dallas knows Byron Bell sucks. Chaz Green has never played as badly as he did in Atlanta. Clayborn beat him with the same move every single time.

The real problem is missing Sean Lee. The defense funnels plays toward him, and he covers for mistakes by others repeatedly. Cowboys failed to address his backup in the offseason.

Edit: I think Dez would be fine if he played with an elite QB who could throw him open, because he still has the athleticism to make great adjustments on the ball. He’ll be toast in a 3 year’s though because he never learned how to run routes.

Sure, he doesn't run the full route tree, but he runs maybe the best dig route in the NFL. Cowboys send him on too many go routes, and Dak doesn't throw go routes well.
