Meh, the reality is the Arlington Cowboys are very beatable. Just like the Golden State Warrior where in the previous NBA season the Cowboys are nowhere as good as their record. The defense especially the secondary is not championship caliber level. |
Any team is very beatable in the playoffs, especially in a single game elimination.
I think the Warriors example doesn't work particularly well for you, especially since they were literally a game away from winning the Finals. Certainly not the best team of all time, but getting to Game 7 of the Finals is not shabby.
Anyway, Dallas' defense isn't great, but it doesn't necessarily need to be. I'll reference New England once again, as I'm most familiar with them, who made the Super Bowl in 2011 with the second worst defense in the league (and were another insane catch away from winning it). Having a great defense certainly helps, but not having one doesn't exclude you from title contention.
