Cowboys aim to capitalize on division race as CeeDee Lamb touts roster strength
Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb said the Dallas Cowboys believe they have the strongest roster in the NFC East and see an opportunity to win the division despite a 2-4 start.
The Dallas Cowboys enter Week 7 of the NFL season trailing the New York Giants, who lead the NFC East with a 3-2-1 record, while both Dallas and Philadelphia sit at 2-4. A victory in the upcoming Monday night game against the Eagles could improve the Cowboys' position and keep them in contention for a first-round playoff hosting spot, especially if the Houston Texans defeat the Giants on Sunday.
Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb told the team’s website that the Cowboys are benefiting from the poor performance of other division rivals and that the roster’s depth gives them a chance to win the division. > "Anybody can win his division, so why not us? Every opportunity that we can get, we know what we’re messing up, and what are our areas of improvement — like playing complementary ball. I feel like, at the end of the day, we feel like we have the best roster, top down, and we’ve got to be able to play like that on Sundays or Mondays," Lamb said.
The Cowboys have struggled to consistently execute on the field, and a couple of wins would significantly improve their outlook heading into the second half of the season.
