Gonna have to beat Brady and Bucs 1st round

[mldardy]

Because this offense and QB has a history of getting shut down in big games, then the defense gets tired and can't get off the field. This team really does need to play complimentary football, both sides of the ball have to at least hold their own, if either tanks then it's over.

I'm not looking at history. That's in the past. I'm looking at right now. Don't care about what happened last year or whatever. Last year is last year/the past is the past.

 

[mldardy]

So you eliminate the threat of the comeback.

I can't see that happening to us. The played the Saints tonight who made so many mistakes down the stretch and just aren't a good team.

 

[zeroburrito]

And that's the Tom you will have to beat. The one from tonight.

The one that sucked for 55 minutes? He was the reason they had 3 pts. Not so sure 17 points will beat the current cowboys. They have struggled to put up 20 all year.

 

[GRCowboy]

You already know Tom will throw at him about 25 times

He cooked Anthony Brown last year too so it really isn't a drop off either way. Joseph has the higher ceiling at least.

I can't see that happening to us. The played the Saints tonight who made so many mistakes down the stretch and just aren't a good team.

The good news is that the Saints won't get rewarded for all their blatant tanking this year because they lose their first round pick in 2023.

Never happened and never will

Let's see how dak performs against the eagles before we worry about the bucs
Let's just say I'm deeply concerned

the Eagles are unlikely to be the Cowboys first round opponent.

 

[NotForLong]

On the road -Down 2 starting cb and against stout run d. Which means dak gotta throw bunch. Not ideal matchup.

Done

Side note, the Saints have to be the worst coached team in the NFL. That was awful. Some of their offensive play calls in the fourth quarter should get you fired.

 

[baltcowboy]

You have to beat Tampa like you beat the Colts.You gonna have to put lots of points on the board. Tampa will not score that many points but Brady is clutch in close games. Tampa’s defense will be a handful too. I think if they get healthy on defense by the playoffs they will be the third best team in the NFC going into the playoffs. If they beat San Francisco they might win out. So we might actually miss them.

Talk about a fan base with a defeatist attitude…stay positive.

Nearly 30 years of futility will do that

We never give up hope though. I am a Cubs fan, I know all about it and how sweet it is when it finally comes.

Bucs play 49ers next week.

I think the loser of that game will be the 4th seed.

 

[noshame]

the Eagles are unlikely to be the Cowboys first round opponent.

I realize that but it will be a test against a stout defense which will be similar to the bucs defense.
With our defense Brady will look like what he is, an old man in a young man's game. I'm not even concerned about him, he will retire after our defense.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Wut?
We got Rockport and rambo2.
They are positive enough for the whole fanbase!

*Swishes my tail* I'm a positive fan.

 

[sandbridge77]

Concerned about a matchup with a 500 team from the worst division in football? Who would you rather play?

 

[Londonboy]

Good.
They needed a shameful act of selfishness from Ingram (swerving out of bounds 1/2 a yard short of the 1st down marker to avoid getting touched) and some woefully incompetent play calling from the OC to even get up to 17 points.
We'll destroy them.

well we get it honest!

That was nuts - I could not believe he did that. That cost them the game - 1 yard!

 

[Pass2Run]

This is a different team than the one we saw in opener.

We have the talent to beat anyone.

Wait, I thought we were running scared of the 49ers?
