Two-A-Days ‘08: Dallas Cowboys
Mike and Mike in the Morning, Two-A-Days '08, August 19th, 2008
Two-A-Days concludes today with the Dallas Cowboys. The predictions:
Greeny: 11-5
Golic: 12-4
Greeny says: Here’s who they play: they play the AFC North, which means some tough games. They’re at Pittsburgh in December; that won’t be easy. They also play the NFC West; they are home with Seattle. I’m looking at the better teams and where those teams are being played. Their other two out-of-division games are home with Tampa and at Green Bay. If you’re 3-3 [in division], now let’s say you beat the Baltimores, the Cincinnatis, that’s five. Are they gonna win at St. Louis? That’s six. They’re going to win at Arizona? I don’t think that’s easy, but I think they probably should; that’s seven. At Green Bay. At Cleveland: they open on the road at Cleveland; do you think they’re gonna win that? Cleveland looked awful last night. … I’m going two wins less at 11-5, but that’s mostly because as I sat and we were going through all these picks, you can’t go nuts on teams because you wind up shortchanging yourself later on. You find yourself in a position where you have to give somebody a 1-15. Look: it’s not just the NFC East, I just think there are better teams. I think those teams in the NFC West are better. They’re going to go Arizona and I don’t think that’s an easy win. I actually filled out this sheet before I saw Cleveland last night. I thought at Cleveland for an opener was going to be very tough. It still may, but boy, the Browns looked just awful last night. I’m going to go 11-5.
A look back: Last year, the guys both picked Dallas to finish 11-5; the Cowboys reached 13-3 but were bumped by the Giants in the second round of the playoffs.
A look ahead: Tomorrow’s Two-A-Days include Golic’s Philadelphia Eagles and the St. Louis Rams, along with guest host Erik Kuselias.
