You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports radio. What up. Good morning to you. Dan Patrick show Fox Sports radio.

Come and see you from the Mercedes Benz man cave.

Got a great third hour of the show for you as we're going to be joined by Robert Smith, the colleague of former NFL start running back and of course Fox NFL analyst and Mercedes Benz family of SUVs extraordinary is one test drive away learn more than be USA dot com.

So so Rob look by now we look at these at the records of NFL teams and I'd be the first to tell you I think the Eagles are really really good.

But I think their record is greatly inflated by the fact that they've played a bizarrely bad schedule right considering they made a playoffs last year things have just worked out to where they played a bizarre bizarrely bad schedule but they have the best record of 13 to cowboys are 11 and 4.

Vikings are 12 and 3. You got the Buccaneers are hanging on for dear life for the lead in the NFC South. You got the Niners.

Somehow the sea hawks are 7 and 8. I think that's more of how bad the rest of the division is.

Bill's are 12 and 3. Bengals are 11 and 4 Ravens are 10 and 5. The Chiefs are 12 and 3. The charges are now 9 and 6. Who's the team that you believe in the least in the NFL? Who's the who's the phone for lack of a better work.

The Dallas Cowboys. I just I always believe that when the time comes and the moments there that they will find a way not to make it happen we saw some losses this year where you just shook your head remember the loss in green Bay.

I think the franchise had never lost a game where they're up by 14 going into the fourth quarter they lost that game what was the other game off the top of my head that I'm missing last Jaguar Jaguars that game they were up 17 or whatever it was or something like that in another situation where they

should have been able to win that game. I don't know. I mean we've we've seen the Cowboys and they haven't made a made a trip to the NFC championship game in 26 years.

They've had talented teams. They won last year they led the league and scoring and if you go back to that playoff game against the 49ers 49ers win that game in Dallas and Jimmy G doesn't even throw a touchdown like their offense was was a

bismore and you have that press got there who you know I think is a good quarterback not an elite quarterback and it always seems like if he throws the ball too much or you depend on him Doug throwing the ball too much is going to wind up in the other

teams hand and you'll probably wind up losing so I think you have more faith in the Vikings that you do the Cowboys. No it's just that I don't have any faith in the Cowboys I very little faith very little faith in the Vikings as well but I'm not I just I've seen the act I've seen the movie how many times have you seen the Cowboys I don't until

they prove to me that they can get it done and win a big game I'm not buying them. Okay, I think most people would say the Vikings and it's really interesting because Kurt Cousins has won a road playoff game right they went down a couple years ago and beat New Orleans and New Orleans and he's got an

exceptional team in terms of the surrounding skill position talent. Sephiria defense has got all four. That's why you can't believe in them.

Correct. I mean between Cousins and their defense I think the Vikings of the team that I believe in the least and it's going to be interesting because you know we'll see who plays and how much they play but you look at the

Packers and how they close up the season their chance to get to the playoffs at seven eight is they got to win their last two the last two are Vikings this weekend at home in the cold so we'll see you know

what the team how they play and remember that's a Vikings team that that whoop them to start the year of the first game of the year whoop them and for the Packers this time around

I don't know the last three years they won 13 games look like the road to the Super Bowl was all theirs may be this is maybe this is the way they got to do it when they won the Super Bowl and what was
