Blogging The Boys
The Dallas Cowboys have lost two games in a row for the first time all season and morale is rather low around them for understandable reasons. Tuesday’s trades certainly made things a bit more interesting, though.
With the team on their bye week it means that if they manage to win their next game (against the Raiders in Week 11) they will have gone just about a month since last tasting the sensation of victory. That is tough.
You can imagine that national perception of the Cowboys right now is that they are one of the worst teams in the league and that is difficult to refute given recent events. They rank very low in our own power rankings and in those from across the internet.
Let’s get to them all.
1 – Buffalo Bills (LW: 2)
Thrashing the Chiefs felt like a boss that they had to conquer (obviously they have beaten them before). Destiny feels like it is on Buffalo’s side, but we are still only in early November.
2 – Seattle Seahawks (LW: 3)
They have a serious claim to the NFC crown. It is going to be awesome to see if they can keep this up.
3 – Detroit Lions (LW: 1)
You can’t help but feel like this loss will haunt them down the road as it was at home and against a division rival and that the Packers lost on the same day.
4 – Tampa Bay Buccaneers (LW: 4)
Back from the bye.
5 – Philadelphia Eagles (LW: 5)
Same. With trade acquisitions. Because duh.
6 – Los Angeles Rams (LW: 8)
They look very much like the real deal.
7 – Kansas City Chiefs (LW: 6)
Perhaps they do have a ceiling on them this year after all.
8 – New England Patriots (LW: 10)
They just keep doing it week after week. Football is fully back in the Boston area.
9 – Pittsburgh Steelers (LW: 15)
Sunday was a very impressive win. I think we all think that Baltimore is going to find a way to take the division, but perhaps the Steelers will say no.
10 – Indianapolis Colts (LW: 7)
It feels sort of like the clock struck midnight here. Maybe not. We will see. They clearly do not feel that way as they have gone all-in by trading for Sauce Gardner.
11 – Denver Broncos (LW: 11)
You mean to tell me you can play this team without them scoring a touchdown every 5 seconds?
12 – Los Angeles Chargers (LW: 12)
They are stacking wins together.
13 – Green Bay Packers (LW: 9)
Watching them lose is always sweet and this helped out draft capital. Additionally… they look a bit broken.
14 – Chicago Bears (LW: 13)
They won a game that they traditionally don’t. Maybe times are changing.
15 – San Francisco 49ers (LW: 14)
It is going to be fascinating to see how they handle Brock Purdy when he comes back. I don’t think...
