For many Cowboys fans, the moves meant that it was Super Bowl or bust in Dallas.<\/p>\n<p>The mood this year is completely different. The press is quiet, there are no more distractions and the team is simply ready to play football. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/banners.affcorner.com\/aspx\/affiliateGetImage.aspx?ID_SC=761&amp;ID_I=478\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Since they aren\u2019t getting much attention, the Cowboys are even flying under the radar. Although Terrell Owens is no longer around, the Cowboys still have one of the most talented rosters in the NFL.<\/p>\n<p>Williams has had his best offseason, which likely means great things for him this season. With a Pro Bowl tight end in Jason Witten, three good running backs, a sturdy offensive line and a Pro Bowl triggerman, the Cowboys are not short of much on offense.<\/p>\n<p>On defense, the Cowboys are similarly loaded. They have Pro Bowl talent littered all over the place and if young corners Mike Jenkins and Orlando Scandrick keep on growing, this is going to be a daunting unit to play against.<\/p>\n<p>With Owens gone, the difference on this team two-fold: coaching and leadership.<\/p>\n<p>Starting with coaching, the Cowboys have two geniuses in Garrett and Wade Phillips. Phillips has coordinated some dominant defenses and Garrett is as creative a mind on offense that you can find. But there can be no more underachieving for this team or both guys will be out of work at the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, the Cowboys need leaders. As much of a mouthpiece as Owens was, he led the way in Dallas and led the team\u2019s demise. Similarly, someone else \u2013 namely Tony Romo \u2013 needs to be a leader for this team in a positive way and lead the way to the playoffs.<\/p>\n<p>The Cowboys are the most complete team in the NFC and should represent them in the Super Bowl now that the distractions have been filtered out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Super Bowl Odds: +2000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Conference Odds: +725<\/p>\n<p>NFC East Odds: +285<\/p>\n<p><strong>2009 Cowboys Predictions <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Place they\u2019ll finish in NFC East: 1st<\/p>\n<p>Place they\u2019ll finish in NFC Conference: 1st<\/p>\n<p>Over\/Under Season Wins Prediction: Over 9.5<\/p>\n<h3>JOIN BET PHOENIX SPORTSBOOK TODAY &#8211; GRAB A 35% FREE PLAY BONUS WHEN YOU CLICK HERE NOW AND TELL THEM CAPPERSPICKS.COM SENT YOU!!!<\/h3>\n<pre> (Min.
