This super rookie team is better than the 2014 Dallas Cowboys.

There’s no other way to put it. No fancy words or special diagrams needed — the 2016 Cowboys are young, powerful, and a force in the NFL.

Eight games into the 2014 campaign, Dallas had a 6-2 record.

They would ride out the second half of the season with a 6-2 finish, a division title and a playoff berth.

The 2016 rookie led Cowboys are 7-1 at the halfway point.

They won four of their away games, including a feature bout at Lambeau Field against the Green Bay Packers (30-16).

So far, this squad is resembling the 2014 team in terms of winning games on the road.

The Cowboys in 2014 won all eight away games, losing four contests at AT&T Stadium.

The magical sauce is in the front office. With the Cowboys benefiting from their draft choices, players such as Dak Prescott, Ezekiel Elliott, Dez Bryant, the offensive line, Morris Claiborne, Sean Lee and Maliek Collins have powered up their play on the field.

With the second half of the season upon us, I’ve written five bold predictions to consider as this monumental season continues.
