Call your shot. Eagles or Cowboys?

The Eagles offense is really not scoring to much of late. They're feeding off turnovers and ST. I think we match up well. Stay balanced. Run the ball. Limit turnovers. Not an easy game but our running game and balance should slow down their rush. Good game to have Dez back.. we'll need his presence and playmaking ability.
 
I think we will finally see a couple of long TD passes and a stout running game.
Dak handles the blitz well. 31-21. Dallas.

Eagle looked vulnerable deep against the Vikes Sunday.

I'm jealous. I still get anxious/nervous haha. I expect them to play well, but I keep waiting for that game where Dak really shows his inexperience.

I hope I'm wrong, but I think this game might be a dog fight.
 
I honestly think this will be a fairly ugly offensive game. Zeke runs like crazy between the 20s but has a hard time getting it into the end zone. Dak looks more like a rookie than he has all year. Meanwhile Philly looks a lot like the team we have seen the last 3 weeks on offense. In the end Zeke and the Cowboys offensive line makes the difference in a 17-13 final.
 
Think cowboys secondary can cover their wr and TE all day. Don't think wentz will have anywhere to go with the ball. Im thinking 27-13 Dallas.
 
Listening to radio here in Philly and the Minny win has buoyed their fans. First three callers into their afternoon show have all called in and said they will beat Dallas............. largely because they think the bye will hurt Prescott just like the bye hurt Wentz.

I disagree because unlike Wentz who has to do everything, Prescott doesn't have to do too much with this OL and running game.
 
I think the Iggles will throw the kitchen sink at us, and blitz us ala Aikman 1990.

If we can stay out of long yardage situations, and pound them ... we will have an enjoyable game to watch.

I don't see our defense holding them to only 14 points, but it would be nice. lol

I completely understand that sentiment. I just think our defense is getting better and better each week. I think this is the week they move up to the next level. There are several individual players that are coming up roses each week. Mo, Irving, Lee...even Church. If they all click at the same time, and I really am hoping this is the week, this defense becomes STOUT.
 
I thought the Vikes would cruise in Philly.

Dallas 17, Eagles 9
 
There's just too much in Dallas favor to not win this game. 24-14 Dallas

In our favor:

1) We seem to have the type of offense that gives the Eagles wide nine defense issues - strong OL that can run block.
2) They are really in a tough spot at CB with injuries.
3) They aren't a great run team.
4) Our secondary should be able to handle their WRs.

In their favor:

1) Wentz has looked his worst in both the Skins and Vikes game when teams pressured him. We don't have the pass rush that those teams do. I worry that if he's given time like Rodgers, he can do a little bit of damage.
2) They are probably one of the few teams that might be able to get a little bit of pressure on Prescott.

The unknowns here are a few. For one, how does the bye week play? We got healthier in the bye week but did we kill some of our momentum? Also, the Eagles are coming off a big win where they threw the sink at the Vikes. Are they coming in flat after such a high?
 
I feel the Cowboys will only have to score more than 17 points to win. With that said, I think we win by at least 10 points.
