The Dallas Cowboys will enter the 2010 season as legitimate Super Bowl contenders. Their extra motivation will be the fact that they could be the first team to play the Super Bowl on home turf.

Here are where experts around the web are ranking the Cowboys based on the draft, preseason games and expectations:

ESPN.com

#4 – The Cowboys are loaded and will look to secure a Super Bowl home game.

Fox Sports

#4 – One step at a time for Dallas, the Cowboys finally have the playoff monkey off their backs. Now Tony Romo must prove he can get his team to a Super Bowl. So what does he need around him? One more playmaker wouldn't hurt, but expect a big focus on the offensive line this offseason as Big D looks to get even bigger.

SI.com

#8 – If you're a Cowboys fan, you'd better hope Wade Phillips's guys don't get all caught up in the chatter about Dallas trying to become the first team to play a Super Bowl on its home field. Don't go there until its time to hoist the NFC title trophy. They'll be plenty of time to beat that topic to death after that. The Cowboys only concern should be building on last year's success, and popping in a tape of that playoff meltdown at Minnesota should be all the motivation they need.

CBS Sports

#4 – They improved in 2009, winning a playoff game, but it has to be better than that this time around. Can they play a Super Bowl in their home stadium? It's possible.
