Cowboys out to win toughest division

NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
Will the troubled Pacman Jones be a plus player for the Dallas Cowboys?
How would you like to be the New York Giants fresh from a Super Bowl victory and not even picked to win your division?
Heck, some skeptics think the Giants may lose second place to the Philadelphia Eagles.
And let’s not forget the Washington Redskins with new coach Jim Zorn. They were in the playoffs in 2 out of the last 3 years.
But the NFC East Division is the Cowboys to lose. They come back as the heavy favorites, even though they seem incapable of winning a playoff game.
How would you like to pick up LB Zach Thomas, CB Adam Jones, RB Felix Jones, and CB Michael Jenkins in your off season? The Cowboys did just that.
Overview: Maybe this is the year of the coronation, I don’t know. The Cowboys are loaded. There is depth everywhere. And the division seems set up for them to stay on top. Except … except there’s that pesky thing called the playoffs. Dallas hasn’t figured it out in over a decade, and coach Wade Phillips is 0-4 there for his career.
Tony Romo, Terrell Owens, Jessica Simpson, …How can you go wrong?
