The Cowboys will once again dip their toe into the postseason.
How long they stay is anyone's guess, unless you want to remove the uncertainty and base your response on the previous 22 seasons. If that's your sample size, this team may, or may not, beat Seattle Saturday evening at AT&T Stadium but will advance no further than the divisional round.
History can be harsh. The accomplishments that raised the bar to make this one of the most prestigious organizations in professional sports draws even more attention to their prolonged blue period.
