"We Still Have an Opportunity"- CeeDee Lamb Optimistic About Cowboys Winning The NFC East 

Right now the Dallas Cowboys might be feeling a little backed into a corner, but superstar wideout CeeDee Lamb is refusing to wear the towel. Despite having a gruelling stretch that has left the fans a little chaotic. 

Lamb is channeling pure Texas defiance, declaring that America’s Team still has a wide-open path to take over the NFC East. This is a division where speed changes a lot, like the autumn wind; his unshakeable optimism is exactly the spark Dallas needs to silence the critics. 

It was just two games ago that, CeeDee Lamb had a career day in managing and helping gear up the Dallas Cowboys, and it finally beacmey their last win through six games this season. Now the star and the team are going to enter their Monday Night Football game against the Philadelphia Eagles; they still have time to improve their game and put it back on the tracks.

However, the Cowboys will surely have run out of so many chances to do so, but it is going to work in their favor that the rest of the NFC East is mostly in the same scenario. What this means is despite being 2-4 on the season, everything is still very much in front of the Cowboys.

"We think about it just like that," Lamb said of the current problem. "Anybody can win his division, so why not us? Every opportunity that we can get, we know what we're messing up, and what our areas of improvement are — 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.”

If they manage to win against the Eagles, it will technically just count as a 1.5 win inside the division. They will have to balance out the opening day loss to the New York Giants in the process.

"For us, it's obviously about being optimistic in this situation," the All-Pro receiver added.

CeeDee Lamb thinks they have the best roster in NFC EAST 

The team is coming back into Week 7 with the Cowboys having NFC East well within their grasp. The Giants are powerful division with a 3-2-1 record, and on the other hand, the Cowboys and Eagles are 2-4 and ahead of their Monday night matchup. 

If the Texans can defeat the Giants on Sunday, the team that is going to win in the Dallas-Philadelphia game will most likely be very excited about their chances of maneuvering. The final 10 games were good enough to finish hosting a playoff game in the first round of the postseason.

On Friday, CeeDee Lamb explained and acknowledged that the Cowboys are “very fortunate that everybody else is playing pretty bad” since it has been placing the aspects of the game in their reach, and he shared his feeling that the team’s talent will wind up winning out.

“We think about it just like that,” Lamb said, via the team’s website. “Anybody can win his division, so why not us?
Every opportunity that we can get, we know what we’re messing up, and what our areas of improvement are — like playing complementary ball.”

A couple of wins for them can bring them back into the turf and make for a very different outlook in Dallas heading into the second half of the season. 

Can Lamb’s infectious confidence rally the locker room for a late-season surge, or is this just wishful thinking? Either way, the drama in Big D is just getting started.
