Re: Redskins have #7 spot in Football Outsider's Rankings
Of the Cowboys last 11 games, 5 of them are against division opponents. New England this week and Green Bay are also on the schedule as well as Detroit, Minn, and Carolina.
Their tough streach is coming up from now thru the middle of Nov. NE, Minn, BYE, then 3 straight division opponents with the first 2 on the road.
The Cowboys could very easily lose 3 of these next 5.
The Skins on the other hand have a mixed bag, tough games followed by not so tough games. Green Bay (tough), then Arizona (not so tough), then New England (very tough), then NY Jets (not so tough).
Everyone talks about the season in 1/4 increments. If the Skins go 2-2 for the next month, I would be happy (5-3) for the last half, do it again and you have 10-6! Realistic and maybe the Cowboys stumble and come back to us.
