Last week: 12 (+0)
Record: 6-4
If the Cowboys win at home this week against the 4-6 Redskins and the Giants lose to the Packers, these two teams will be tied at 6-5 and the Cowboys be the favorite because they have the much easier schedule. The Cowboys host Philadelphia, go to Cincinnati, then host Pittsburgh and New Orleans, and then they go to Washington. The Giants, meanwhile, will go to Washington, host New Orleans (two games the Cowboys have two), but then they go to Baltimore and Atlanta (two games the Cowboys have already played), before heading home for Philadelphia (a same game). Every year there are 5 new playoff teams (17 straight years). If that’s going to happen again this year, Dallas pretty much has to make the playoffs.
