Call your shot. Eagles or Cowboys?

I think this will be a tough game. I think we are better though and should win the game. We struggled to run against them in the past even with this O Line. I suspect this will continue this week. I doubt Zeke breaks 100 yards. I think Dak will be good but will struggle.. Wentz will struggle more. I see a low scoring game but the Cowboys win:

13-10.
 
One thing I know, is that whenever I have to stay up late to watch the Cowboys, the game is almost always decided in the final 2 minutes. I end up either too excited about the win, or too pissed off about the loss to go to sleep, and end up tired as hell the next day. I'll stay optimistic though:

Cowboys 31,
Eagles 27

One thing to note. This is a totally different Eagles D than the ones that have given us fits the last couple of years. They played a 2 gap 3-4 and now they play an up the field attack wide nine style 4-3 defense.

Further, their second best run stopper, Bennie Logan, might be out or at least limited with a groin injury.

Understood. But their D Coordinator is well versed in how we run the ball. I think we will struggle. Logan being out or limited will be a big blow to them. However, I fully expect him to be a go and have an HOF type day, which is what usually happens to us when we think their "guy" is out or will struggle.
 
The Skins ran for 230 yes against Philly's D... If we run the ball like that, we win easily. However-- I think we get Philly's best shot and they keep it close and cause us some problems on 3rd and long.

But in the end-- the OL again is just too much for them to handle for 60 mins and we grind out a tough win with lots of "dirty yards" for Zeke and Morris.

Dallas 23
Philly 16

Anything can happen in the NFL, but the Skins don't scare me at all.

We don't just run the ball here. If you stop our run game.. we will burn you with the passing game. Have fun trying to cover our receivers in man to man with Dak throwing them the ball. We are 5-1 for a reason.

I don't think we'll go 15-1 or anything like that, but our offense (#1 in the NFL) is legit and multi-faceted. Hopefully gone forever are the days where Romo (or whoever) has to throw the ball 50+ times because we're down two TDs all the time. Our defense is really helping us out in that regard. 6 games in and nobody has scored more than 23 on us. Pretty sure our turnover margin is near top of the league, too. Got a pretty nice little machine going right now.

How is he well versed? He's only faced the Cowboys like 2 times.

The Commanders showed that they are susceptible to the run. It will be inexcusable IMO for this OL and Elliott and coaching staff to not have, at least, a decent game running the ball.

I feel like a need to just put this out there prominently and appreciate anyone else willing to let everyone know how they feel.

The same level of confidence I had in the Green Bay game continues this week. My approach to Cowboys games leading up to this year has always been visibly calm but internally all nerved up...

This year has been a major departure from the norm. My usual visible calmness has been supplemented with an internal peace that hasn't changed to this point this season.

Philly will come into Dallas Sunday night and leave with smoke billowing from their back sides. I see Wentz putting up decent stats but I also see two costly turnovers in his near future. (1 INT, 1 forced fumble)

Dak is going to once again raise the bar and give the mediots plenty more to salivate on. Yes. On the major stage Sunday Night, Dak outperforms Wentz by a mile.

Zeke eats an early Thanksgiving feast.

I feel Dallas will run the ball quite well vs. Philly, and if we don't allow Wentz to throw 20 passes to his RBs and TEs, we will win this game handily.

Go ahead and throw to the backs, we just need to tackle well. Carson isn't throwing downfield as much as people believe.
 
i think frustrating thing will be too much Dan Bailey but sweetest part will still be a win. 26-20 Cowboys.
 
We'll win by at least 8 - they won't have any more luck stopping our running game than anyone else has. A late Wentz pick will seal their fate I'll call it 30-20.
 
It won't be over by halftime, but the Cowboys should pull away at the end.

24-12
