Based on my study, this will back a Dak game

So just like the jets game I am preping for a cowboys vs eagles game for fantasy purposes.

Right off the bat this game will have to be won on the arm of Dak. The eagles are decent against the run which is why teams pass alot against them.

Unfortunately for the eagles their secondary is trash so having a stout run D is almost a curse for them as their strength sets up their weakness.

I dont expect Zeke to have a big impact in this game. The eagles held delvin cook and mattison in check vs the Vikings and that is vary impressive considering the Vikings have imo a top 3 run game.

They've stopped other run games but the Vikings were really their first true test.

This game will come down to what Dak does. This is about as good of a NO EXCUSE game the fans will get for Dak.

The eagles defense has been hit pretty hard injury wise at NT and LBs (also releasing Zach Brown). I could see the coaches going heavy run even in this game.

I imagine the eagles are going to run straight ahead 45 times tomorrow night. I think they can run at will on this defense and will probably stay with that and take few chances. Between their running game and their tight ends then I think Dallas will have less possessions in this game. That means zero room for error.

The eagles have a better kicker which could be big also.

If Dallas stops the run early and makes them throw it 50 times they will probably have takeaway opportunities and a chance to win in a shootout....If the eagles come out and run at will, right up the middle then it will be a quick game and a long night for the Dallas defense.

this vaunted eagles d is allowing over 430yds on the road and 29pts.
there will be opportunities there.
our guys need to MAKE THEM.

if Maher makes that FG the whole narrative this week is different....he needs to MAKE THEM sunday night.
if Gallup makes some catches...we have some possessions extended....he needs to MAKE THEM sunday night.

we've been our own worst enemy these last 3 games...hopefully we get the hell outta our own way sunday night.

The Eagles are going to blitz constantly forcing the Cowboys to beat it. If the Cowboys try running on first down 17 of 21 times again, they will be in for a long night.

....if the OL can hold up and DL play their gaps, Dallas could make out well.

We will see a lot on first down. Don’t be surprised if we get a push from our run game. But if JG keeps trying to force the run in this game knowing they have a good run defense then I am convinced he wants to be fired.. Lol. But we all know that as soon as they are down by 3 points that he will abandon the run.

This game really needs to be a different approach and our WR need to be healthy. If we were as healthy as our first game then we would destroy them with the pass..

We have to stop turning the ball over, dropping passes, and we have to stop committing drive killing penalties.

We also have to either pass protect better or get the fricken ball out of Dak’s hands quicker. Slants, screens, and shallow crosses with occasional intermediate and deep strikes..

We need a little more from the run game as well. I’d like to see Pollard get the ball in space a few times since he’s our only home run threat rb. Zeke is now just a power back these days, a pricey one at that....

They could beat Green Bay on the road. Who did Dallas beat?

I have written down my prognostications for the game and placed them in a sealed envelope. I will open the envelope and post them after the game.

GB was supposed to have a trash run defense....how did that turn out?

Every team seems to rev up towards us.

have you taken in the "glitch" in your studies? "pressure, panic mode.
The glitch continues to haunt antonio ramiro on the golf course. He has yet to make the cut in a PGA event. The glitch is forever. I know you are just being dismissive, but few really understand the glitch.

umm "He has yet to make the cut in a PGA event"

How many non professionals make the cut at PGA events?

Not many. Phil Mickelson won as an amateur. But it's been a while. But tony will keep trying. Maybe some day.
