Only 2 ways we lose to the Eagles Sunday night

[CVN68_Cowboys]

go off? They don't have a scary offense

They probably have one of the worst collections of offensive skill players in the NFL. I don't see them scoring more than maybe about 20.

#4. They score more points.

damn it, I was gonna say that

1. Eagles special teams. So got to watch out for sproles on the punt return. And Josh huff on the kickoff return.

2. Defensive touchdowns. Malcolm Jenkins was the one who intercepted Kurt cousins in Washington


So those are the only two ways we can lose this game. We have the better offense and just don't see us losing unless the eagles get 14 pts from the special teams and 7 pts from the defense


Their running game is nothing to fear or their receiving core. There wll not be any shootout between dak and wentz. If we lose its because of special teams and turnovers

I tend to agree with you but over the years I've seen football games won and lost in so many surprising ways....

Would I be surprised if we put 40 points on their *****. No. But I wouldn't be completely surprised if they put 40 points on us.

**** happens every freaking time in our division games,does anybody expect anything other than a nail-biter?

 

[reddyuta]

My concern is that they've been reading to much of the love they've been getting, and these young'uns lose their focus.

they could also lose momentum coming off the bye,the vikings looked terrible coming off the bye.

All the ESPN picks except Jaws pick Dallas.
Should we be worried?

Gee, Jaws picked Philly? Shocker!

There is no reason in today's NFL that you give up a kick return for a TD. Kick into the endzone and play from the 25. No need to get cute.

Exactly. There should be no reason, being a dome, that Bailey can't put it out the back of the end one every kickoff.

Nail biter? Skins had no issue moving the ball and they don't have as good as offense

Agree with the OP

1) they outscore us

2) we score less than them

And we have a scary defense? I'm as happy about our offense than anyone but I'm not sure if I'd say they are a juggernaut by any means yet. You just never know how a team reacts after a bye.

We've allowed more that 21 points one time, and it was 23. Our D is better than anything they bring to the table.

The Dallas offense is due for crap load of turnovers in a game...

That would be one way they end up losing.

The eagles will only win with non-offensive touchdowns since we have the better team.

book it.

NFC East games you throw the records and stats out the window. It can be a blow out either way for all we know.

 

[ChooChoo73]

We will lose if we don't convert third downs and they do.
If we settle for field goals in red zone and they don't.
If it's a 4th quarter game and we make the key mistake such as a missed block or penalty.
If Garrett coaches as if we already have the game in hand.

 

[haleyrules]

I loath the Eagles so much l can hardly stand to watch the games in case the Cowboys lose.

In other news staying underwater to long is the leading cause of drowning.

This is an NFCE division game so I think statistics, trends and everything else goes out the window. It seems like when we play NYG, Wash or Philly, their weakest units have their best games of the season.
