The Cowboys Are Back! Plus, Early Week 8 Leans, and Can the Brewers Close? | Ringer Wise Guys

DabbundoSo the Dallas offensive line completely manhandled them. And it was a Dallas offensive line that I didn't think did particularly well against the heavy blitz of Tampa, of Green Bay the last couple of weeks. But Saquon Barkley could barely walk and he still had seven carries for 62 yards. So a lot of questions about their defense, but I think the interesting thing is the way the Cowboys schedule breaks the rest of the season.

DabbundoThey have 10 games left their next eight. They play four of my top five rated teams, the whole NFC West plus Jacksonville. And they play four of my bottom eight. They got Indy, they've got Tennessee, they've got Arizona.

DabbundoSo very reasonably true that they're going to be like seven and eight or eight and seven coming into those last two games, those divisional games against the Giants and the commanders where that will probably decide how this season ends. But right now, they're basically a toss up with the Giants to win the division.

SalOh, I think there's almost no question it's going to come down a week 18 when these wins are so precious and you're only going to need eight or nine or seven to seven and a tie. I have no idea to win. So I think I think it would come down. Yeah, I stopped figuring it out, Raheem, with the scheduler who has a tough schedule, who has an easy schedule, because teams are so different from what we thought they were

Sallike a month ago.

RaheemYeah, and then obviously when you look at the fact that there's always key injuries, I mean, quarterbacks get injured pretty much every week, it changes everything. Like, we thought this Eagles game would be tough. I never would have imagined that the Cowboys would be laying four and a half on the road to the Philadelphia Eagles.

RaheemSo that tells you everything.
