First year in a long time I am optimistic for Cowboys to have a great season.
Yes, they look very good!

Probably #33I just can't wait to see the new power rankings after today's Buffalo over the Texans 40 - 0 slaughter.
I'm not watching a lot of football these days but I do watch the Tampa Bay games..... (and Cowboys too) The TB game last night was especially good... Brady beat the Pats (and Belicheck) on their home field... Just doesn't get much better than that.....
Now I'll admit, it was about as close as it gets. The Patriots missed that last FG, which would have most likely given them the win, by inches.... Hey, a win is a win....
I was glad to see Brady win at Foxboro, but it wasn’t a good game at all IMO. Brady’s Passer Rating was 70.8, his worst performance this season - vs 101.6 for Jones. 1 TD and 4 FG’s isn’t a good showing for a winner to me. Neither team had a good night, I’m sure the rain made it hard to throw. Mac Jones looks like he could be good, time will tell.I'm not watching a lot of football these days but I do watch the Tampa Bay games.....

I don't understand the rationale for Brady and TB trying to go for a TD at around the 2 min mark instead of trying to pick up 8 yrs for a 1st down, then bleed the clock and go for a winning FG. I guess he was trying to return, winning with a bang. But seems to me like a bleed the clock strategy would've been better.
That rain made it a real mess... Harder to pass, catch, run and tackle... But it was equally messy for both teams... But that is football.Neither team had a good night, I’m sure the rain made it hard to throw.

Good Sunday night game with all the hype of Brady returning to play against the Pats.

Biggest stand out to me was the playing of Mac Jones. He performed well in what would have been a stressful situation. Then again, coming from Bama, he’s used to big games.
+1 Based on where he is now, (arm chair QB ) it looks like the rest of the NFL might very well agree with that...I never warmed up to Newton, seemed like a hot dog to me even with the Panthers.
Yikes!
I would have bet the Texans would have made the bottom!
31. Texans: Apparently rookie QB Davis Mills was trying to honor former Bills QB Nathan Peterman with a truly dreadful, 87-yard, four-INT performance in Buffalo.
32. Jaguars: Shouldn't Urban Meyer apologize for being a distraction over the previous nine months as well
..... after snatching defeat from the jaws of victory today.....
The Texans will likely be at the bottom after snatching defeat from the jaws of victory today against the Patriots.
But then again, the Jags are pretty dreadful too... I feel sorry for Trevor Lawrence... he's done nothing but win his entire career and then he gets drafted by the Jaguars. Sad! Of course I guess that he is laughing all the way to the bank.
They were certainly in control yesterday. (except maybe for the first quarter screw ups.)Cowboys keep rolling.
Probably #33
They just don't deserve to be on the official list of 32 pro football teams.
I thought the Jaguars were playing the Dolphins in London this coming Sunday?Maybe not. They have a strong challenger with the Jaguars with their 20 game losing streak.
They have their next game in London with Buffalo. What do you think their chances of winning against Buffalo are? A British Cricket team might have a better chance.
Cheers!
You are correct. I was looking at their game schedule on their website and the first thing that was listed was a November 7th game. When the news reports come on the sports section I generally mentally mute them when they start talking about the jaguars. It's just too sad to watch.I thought the Jaguars were playing the Dolphins in London this coming Sunday?
Never would have predicted the Steelers and the Chiefs would be last in their divisions after 5 weeks, but lots of games left. Otherwise teams seem to be where I might have guessed pre season.
Lots of games left,,,that’s what I keep saying to myself but the Chiefs have been painful to watch these last few games.
