This is what happens when you blow out bad teams, play a lot of them, and lose close to good teams.

[–] Ronaldoooope@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Can someone tell the rest of the NFL to blow out the bad teams too? That way you guys don’t get so upset.

[–] fp1480@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Cowboys played some really bad teams, cmon guys give them a round of applause cause they need something positive for another SB less year

Ravens also play defensive guru, Brandon Staley, this week. They have no chance.

[–] BigGucciNasty@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Who cares. Nobody will remember this stat in two weeks. Y’all can gas this team up all you want. They will still be mediocre when the playoffs roll around.

Mastered the art of smashing tomato cans

[–] aBelligerentRacoon@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Unless they are playing the 49ers

[–] MazKhan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The giants gave them 72 of those points lmao

[–] DireWolfe92@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I'm sure their schedule has had nothing to do with that

[–] eugene-krabzzz@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They also played the giants twice

[–] schrodingersays@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Such a meaningful stat. Cowboys, in some ways you are the best team in the league! How about that?!?!?

[–] hoobsher@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

mama said the reason Cowboys fans are so ornery is cuz they got all them points and no wins against teams over .500

[–] LBJBROW@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No team has the same schedule so this stat is useless.

Cowboys have only beaten bottom feeders.

Point differential is a pretty pointless stat. If it meant anything the Steelers( -29)wouldn’t be seeded ahead of the bills (+104) for a playoff spot.

Gotta love playing in the NFCE.

[–] email253200@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Now do it from week three and on

[–] Crossman556@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Strength of schedule really helps:

Panthers Patriots Giants twice

versus

Bengals twice Browns twice Steelers

plus better showings against common opponents:

ARI-DAL: 28-16 L ARI-BAL: 31-24 W

SEA-DAL: 22-14 L SEA-BAL: 37-3 W

[–] Player7592@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The Dallas Cowboys are Tied for the best Point Differential In The NFL. Also, they've played one less game than team they are tied with (Ravens)

And ... ?

It's unclear what point you're trying to make here.

[–] Individual_Cake_906@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Still, will lose in the playoffs

[–] Rando0117@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They also haven’t beaten a team with a winning record. So what does this really say about the cowboys?

[–] TheEffinChamps@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They also have had the most pro bowlers of any team in the past 27 years.

And they have had less playoff wins than the Jets in the past 27 years.

Their problem has never been the regular season stats.

[–] Ekranoplan01@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

We all know how this ends.

[–] Ukulele_Maestro@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

/r/nfl always finding a way to hate on the cowboys like no other team.

[–] AshBlackstone78@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, they beat up on scrub teams, and lose every time they play a good team. As it’s been for about 25 years. Good talk.

[–] Fuuutuuuree@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They also haven’t beaten a team with a (currently) winning record

[–] VinTheHater@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It’s the same script for the Cowboys every year. Start the season, beat up on bad teams, get delusional, lose in playoffs on embarrassing final play. Why should the NFL script writers change up a formula that works so well for so many people?

[–] jimhabfan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

So if they lose the game they have in hand, they’ll no longer be tied for first.

[–] MayonnaiseOreo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No, they've played one *fewer game.

[–] wxox@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It's written as if it makes it look like Dallas is better than the Ravens, but the Ravens playing one more game AND still having the top point differential is more interesting to me.

[–] mapplejax@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Unimportant, useless stat. A win, is a win. That’s all that matters.

[–] vikinick@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Watch them lose to the Commanders this week.
