WFAA sports team Cowboys predictions gone very wrong

We got it wrong.

All of us.

And not even close.

So I guess for all you who think we're a bunch of Cowboys bashers here, all nine of us WFAA sports and KFWD Sports Talk "experts" picked the Cowboys to go 11-5 or better, win the NFC East, win a playoff game and go to the NFC Championship Game or even win the Super Bowl.

The Cowboys finished 9-7, third in the NFC East and missed the playoffs.

Here's the quick prediction rundown:

Aaron Chimbel, WFAA.com sports:
Prediction: 12-4 record, 1st in NFC East, lose in NFC Championship Game.

Ted Madden, reporter/photographer:
Prediction: 11-5 record, 1st in NFC East, Super Bowl Champs.

Joe Trahan, anchor/reporter:
Prediction: 12-4 record, 1st in NFC East, Super Bowl Champs!!!!

Dale Hansen, anchor/executive sports director:
Prediction: 11-5 record, 1st in NFC East, play in Super Bowl.

Nick Zelinski, producer:
Prediction: 12-4 record, 1st in NFC East, Super Bowl Champs.

George Riba, senior reporter:
Prediction: 12-4 record, 1st in NFC East, Lose in Super Bowl.

Sean Hamilton, executive producer:
Prediction: 14-2 record, 1st in the NFC East, Lose in Super Bowl.

Josh Roe, Sports Talk host (now former Sports Talk host):
Prediction: 11-5 record, 1st in the NFC East, lose in the NFC Championship Game.

Josh Harvey, Sports Talk producer:
Prediction: 13-3, 1st in the NFC East, lose in the NFC Championship

You can read our full predictions with explanations from Sept. 5 here.

Maybe Ted had it right when he wrote, "I prefer not to call these predictions; I prefer calling them guesses, because really that's all they are."

We'll try to guess better next year.

Re Cowboys - OK enough of the crying and
finger pointing. Point at Jones if you want to point. His dumb a-- management system is enough to drive Phillips to drink. This coming season, Jones should get on his jet and go south for the winter.
