Bottom Line: It feels like we go through this every year with the Redskins, but this year they could see some improvement. I don’t think it will be enough for them to make the playoffs though.
Dallas Cowboys
The Cowboys biggest addition during the off-season, without a doubt, was head coach Bill Parcells, and he has his work cut out for him. He doesn’t have a proven quarterback, doesn’t know if his running back can carry the load, and his defense lacks a run-stuffing tackle. Overall, he does have a good defense with one of the best young secondaries in the league, though.
And the offense is not completely without talent. In fact, they have a deep group of receivers, but unfortunately, they don’t have anyone that can get the ball to them consistently.
Bottom Line: The Cowboys will be very inconsistent and probably near the bottom of the league in offense this year. Their defense will keep them in games, but I doubt they will improve much on last season’s five wins.
