Now they have ZERO to play for and they are without Mccoy, Vick, Jackson, and Babin and all the players know the coach is gone at the end of the year too. You think they are going to play hard for him?

I didn't know it was a rule that all pts must come from the offense

You call beating them by 15 points killing them? lol Having someone down by 2 scores isn't "killing" them. Stop exaggerating and get real. Philly had 23 first downs compared to 14 for the Cowboys and they out gained the Cowboys 369 yards to 294 yards. Vick going down and the turnovers that led to 21 points is what did Philly in. With Vick playing Philly went right down the field and took a 7-0 lead. Even though Foles had never taken a regular season snap he played pretty well.

He completed 69% of his passes for 219 yards and a TD. Maclin had 8 catches for 93 yards and a TD so don't think because D Jackson is out Philly has nothing to threaten the Cowboys secondary with. Foles proved the first time he can make some plays against the Cowboys defense that's been giving up plays. The Cowboys had Carter on defense in the first game and without him the cracks are starting to appear. The loss of Lee and Carter are starting to show.

C&LF bet his account here. Saying the same thing...but a different team. Not that it mattered, but that was his basic statement.

This is silly. These guys are playing for their jobs also. Salary is no a guarantee in the NFL, only signing bonuses...and such.

Those guys all have a reason to play hard their jobs are on the line regardless of whomever may or may not be on the field at the time. This is a chance for those other guys to shine and go all out too.

So why haven't they been playing hard the last 7 weeks?

Ah, so what you are telling me is NO team ever quits in the NFL then right? Even teams who are missing several key players and playing for a coach that they know is going to be fired at the end of the season. Just because players have their jobs on the line doesn't mean they have the talent to play at a high enough level not to get embarrassed.

Who hasn't been playing hard?

I'd say effort has not been the issue.

Some poster was trying to say they will be playing for their jobs. I thought they were doing that the entire month of December?

The Eagkes stink and will lose this sunday

The End

Winning by 2 scores isn't a blowout and a blowout is what you've been predicting throughout this thread. If you want to bet on a blowout I'll bet you $5000 the Cowboys don't win by 17 points or more. I'll make it easy on you if the Cowboys win by 17 or more I'll pay you $5000 and if they don't you pay me $2000...deal? Don't take the bet unless you intend on paying up and it can be proven.

You're no realist the Cowboys aren't a pathetic team they're just not a very good team. This is just another example of how you exaggerate.

That statement right there proves you're nothing but hot air. As inconsistent and mediocre a team as the Cowboys are they could very easily lose this game. A hundred posters could take you up on that bet and if the Cowboys lost you would never pay up. You would simply disappear and return under a different username.

The Panthers a 2-8 team entering the game whose head coach is on the hot seat didn't take Philly seriously???

No one takes you seriously!

I wasn't attacking Brees just giving you the facts why he's struggling. All you do is attack Romo claiming he sucks when he's the only reason the Cowboys have a chance to compete every week. If it wasn't for his 441 yards and 3 TD's on Thanksgiving the Cowboys would have lost by 35+ that's what you call being throttled.
