next: Cowboys can put up points. and the game is in Dallas. we need a win to get that monkey off our back.
Then: we go to Minny for the ultimate showdown. undefeated Vikings have a stifling defense and Sam Darnold has seemed to revive his career. Need a win here to put us in the drivers seat in the North.
Then: We play Tennessee. They have issues on offense with a QB who cant seem to stop turning the ball over. Could be a walk in the park or a trap game. cant afford a loss here..
Then: Its a trip to Wisconsin to take on the Packers. Love seems healed from his knee injury but looks skittish at times. Another must win division game.
Then: its on to Houston to face the Texans. They look like a more down to earth team compared to last year but again, they are definitely a playoff caliber team and we need to win.
that's 4 out of the next 5 on the road and the 4 away games are all against legit playoff contenders. Could be the toughest part of our schedule. We are starting out pretty much healthy so we need to get it in gear and don't let up the entire 5 weeks.
I say we go 5-0 this stretch of games to put us in control of our own fate going forward.

Cowboys best player in Micah Parsons might not play. Lions should be able to beat their defense especially with running the ball, their entire linebacking corp is injured. I don't think the Cowboys offense is any better than last year and in fact it might be worse as I don't see a legit RB on their roster.
Minnesota is tough, I think they are legit. They overalled a lot of their defense and it's paid in spades. Jefferson and Addison are just brutal and will get the ball, got to get to Darnold.
The other games too early to give a beat on, but barring any catastrophic injuries, they should beat those teams.
