With four of the next five opponents posting 2‑5 records, Dallas must string together wins to reach seven before a December clash with Seattle and a mid‑season test against 6‑1 49ers. The upcoming Cardinals game—historically a stumbling block—could reveal whether the team can finally build a balanced offense and competent defense under Brian Schottenheimer. Ryle emphasizes replicating their recent balanced performance, while Martin stresses the need for eight wins to avoid another missed playoff, citing Dak Prescott’s league‑leading depth of target and the Eagles’ film as a blueprint.
