Felisha is trying to put an argument forward to prove that the Dallas Cowboys will win the Super Bowl this year. This is an inherently problematic approach, as it is impossible to know with certainty whether this will be the case or not.

However, we can still analyze the quality of her argument. The fact that the team has a long history of winning, that they have new recruits and that sports analysts are predicting a victory are strong claims. However, the fact that the team is popular and that it has a huge fan base are not good arguments. Overall, due to the unpredictability of the situation, Felisha's argument is not very convincing.
