Jerry Jones has built to this moment, putting a championship-contending team on the field during the season JerryWorld hosts the Super Bowl.
The Cowboys hype brings pressure, but linebacker Bradie James welcomes it. He wants to hear Super Bowl talk.
“Nah, we can’t be scared to mention it,” James said on 103.3 FM ESPN to Matt Mosley Thursday. “That’s our ultimate goal. With it being here in Dallas, we want to be that first team to make history.”
We think the Cowboys have a chance, but the schedule does them no favors. The NFC East looks balanced, and they face the NFC North and AFC South out of division.
With that slate, it would surprise us if any NFC East team earned a bye in the playoffs.
