Without TW the OL is dependent on Penn playing well and staying healthy for 16 games. Still 7-9 and hope I am wrong!

I do admire your optimism, but just thought you should know that Vegas lines indicate Philly is the most heavily favored team out of all 16 games in week 1.

I generally split NFC East matchups (except I think I had us beating you guys twice, cuz without Zeke your offense is drab)

Because they are looking at the team from last season's results and trying to factor in the changes. But last season's results for us vs philly were skewed by the loss of our QB, and CB's.

I am optimistic about the year even without TW, I think our running game will be so strong, Keenum will thrive with play action and reverse rollouts.

I could be wrong.

The floor for this team is 7 wins, so I think that's where I'll start.

Looks like Trent will not show up anytime soon so I'm going with 6-10 now

I agree with SF69.
1st and 2nd year players will be inconsistent.
Penn has finished the last 2 seasons on the IR. He's going to make it 3 years in a row. Flowers is a project at this point.

Defense will be good, probably top 10 but they aren't elite.

Special teams will be the worst in the NFL.
They get nothing in returns and coverage teams look like they will put the defense in bad spots with long returns.

This is probably a 7 win team.
9 wins if the ball bounces their way, 5 wins if things go like they have the last 2 seasons.

Fair 'nuff.

Zekes deal will be done. Probably in the next 24 hours which puts him on the field week 1.

Look in the range of 6 years, 90 million. Dollars already agreed upon. Working to finalize structure.

Even if they do give Zeke's contract finished up, he has missed all of training camp and preseason. Fact is the ewok probably will show up out of shape and need 6 weeks rest and recuperation after Payne, Allen and Ionnaidis get done flopping him around.

Being an extension, he will be 32 when the contract ends. He will never see half that.

Could say 190 million, for all I care. All that matters is the guaranteed money.
Hearing on twitterverse, estimated 25-28 mill per year for the first three years. Then 'we'll see'.

But it is the structure of the contract (guarantees, bonuses, incentives) is what needs polishing.

Latest and greatest is Zeke is returning to Dallas as we speak to finalize the deal and put ink on it.
