Cowboys finish in the NFC East is a debate
Don’t look now, but within a few weeks we’ll have the Dallas Cowboys in Oxnard beginning training camp. The long offseason will start its concluding phase as the team begins preparation in earnest for the 2025 NFL season.
It will be a season of renewal for the Cowboys. After a disastrous 2024 that ended with a 7-10 record, Dallas will be trying to prove that was an anomaly and that their roster is a playoff-worthy unit.
The big change for 2025 will be the presence of Brian Schottenheimer as the new head coach. Schotty is trying to build a different kind of culture in Dallas, and he is also looking to do things his way on offense. It has to be said that the head coach has done a lot this offseason to rebuild the confidence of a team seeking a playoff spot.
And the most direct route to the playoffs is to win the NFC East division. But they currently have the Super Bowl champion Eagles, and the NFC conference championship game participant, the Commanders, to deal with. Oh yeah, the Giants are in there too.
We asked you where you think the team will finish in the NFC East and it was a very split vote.
Cowboys fans are thinking anywhere form third to first in the division for 2025. We’ll have to see how it all plays out. Our friends at FanDuel currently have the Eagles at -135, the Commanders at +220, and the Cowboys at +550. The Giants bring up the rear at +2400.
So the oddsmakers don’t believe in the Cowboys this season, but some of you do.
