Dallas has one of the more difficult schedules for 2010. Now, obviously this is very early and there is no guarantees that this schedule will be difficult or a breeze, but it's fun to lookahead and try to guess the wins and losses. Lets take a look

Week one @ Washington - The Boys vs the Skins is always a great game. Even the years that one of these teams isn't doing so well, they always manage to play well against each other. I've got the Cowboys winning this game. The Cowboys are the kings of September, and with Washington switching to a 3-4 defensive scheme this year, I don't see them really shutting down the boys this early in the season.

Week two at home against Da Bears - Common, first home game of the season and the Big yard in Arlington. Cowboys defense will own Jay Cutler. I can't wait to see Demarcus Ware peel Cutler off of the bottom of his cleats.

Week three @ Houston - This will be a tough game. Houston has become a tough team, and the crowd will be really into this one. Matt Schaub is a great QB with the best WR in the league, and they'll be attacking the Cowboys safeties all game. I think the Cowboys depth is too deep for the Texans to overcome though, and the Boys will win a close one in Houston.

Week Five home against the Titans - This will be an intriguing game to say the least. Vince Young will be anxious to play again in the state of Texas, and Chris Johnson is a freak. The titans managed to finish last season with an 8-8 record....AFTER LOSING THE FIRST 6 GAMES! I've got the Boys winning this one too, but don't be surprised if the Titans steal this one away from them.

Week six @ Minnesota - PLAYOFF REMATCH! But this one is really tough to predict. If Brett Favre is playing again, I'm picking the Vikings at home. If he's not playing, I'm picking the Cowboys. Without Farve the boys can focus more on the running game of the Vikings and stop the big plays. If the Cowboys can gain an early lead, the Vikes will have to abandon the run and start letting Tavarus Jackson hurl the rock (lololololzzz)

Week seven home against the NY football Giants - The Giants managed to beat the Boys both times last season, and I know that's in the back of the players minds. It's going to be a classic NFC East battle. I got the Boys winning at home in a very close game. Can't wait for this one.

Week Eight at home against the Jags - Boys. Jags aren't athletic enough to hang with them after halftime.

I'll post my thoughts on weeks 9-17 tomorrow. Thoughts? Comments?
