I still think it was a decent wager (3-1 to win the division) as at the time the Cowboys looked the superior team. I was banking on the Cowboys to win the head to head with Eagles next week, which now no longer matters, PLUS needed the Cowboys to win all the games they should have won, while the Eagles picked up an extra loss along the way. Instead it was the Cowboys who picked up an extra loss yesterday to Jacksonville, and that after almost losing to Houston last week. Cowboys certainly don't look like the team they did 3-4 weeks ago. That is the beauty of the NFL season.
