That’s me right now. I am very excited for this game. This team feels different.

BTW how many babies were conceived in Buffalo las night?

If there's one thing I do NOT want to see today, it's a 6 yard completion on a 3rd and 7, that's so maddening, if the defender is at the 7 yard spot, then go past a yard or two and make the reception.

Second would be on like a 3rd and goal from the 5 yard line, they run a back or receiver parallel to the LOS and he is unable to turn upfield because his momentum is to the sideline, by the time he can turn upfield the defender is all over him and the receiver has no leverage.

But who am I kidding, we'll see each of those today...

Im not optimistic about winning this game.

This Franchise over the last 26 years has failed to meet expectations time and time again. We always think we can just show up and beat our opponent because “we are the Dallas Cowboys”. Thats cool when there is no salary cap in place and you have all the best players.

This game will come down to our offense. If Dak and the WRs show up (im looking at you Coop), we win by two scores. If the OL gets dominated and Dak is flustered by a zone coverage, we will lose
Well I agree about the Oline showing up not necessarily bout zone coverage. I want to see Dak run more when nothing is there

I want to see pollard and zeke eat. I want to see 0 bubble screens and Moore call a good game but mostly I want to see the run defense allow less than 70 yards and make jimmy g beat us

Probably somebody already posted it, but I saw where the previous 4 times the Cowboys and 49ers played in the playoffs, the winner of that game won the SB.

We'll see...

Everything feels different!

Well, we have a ref working the game today who is a former Cowboys DB (Nate Jones) so yeah, that's different. Hope we don't lose because blaming the refs WON'T be different even with the first sentence being true.

In Micah I trust. Dak will probably have to make a couple critical throws under pressure. I hope he can change.

Don't teams chart success percentages of all the plays? I'm sure that play has worked on occasion for the Cowboys, but it sure doesn't seem like it does very often.

I get the point, it's a quick play and easy throw, the problem is the blocking is atrocious when the do it. That's the issue, not the qb or the receiver...

Agree, with that, but my thing is GB knew that play in the playoffs, jumped the route, got an INT. and went on to score. That was a 10 to 14 point swing.
I have a feeling SF will do the same thing.

We need to hit Blake Jarwin on those seam routes to beat the Cover-2
i could see the niners do what other teams have been doing since the broncos game and play a lot more man to man defense against the receivers. normally the niners are a cover 2 defense but i could see them shake it a little to try and throw prescott off.

Nervous enthusiasm here. I want so bad for us to win! I want us to come out focused, and not shoot ourselves in the foot. Zurlein needs to get his ***** together and make some FGs! Dak, put the ball on the receivers! Catch the ball CeeDee! Coop, stay mentally in the game! Zeke, run with a purpose and stop tripping into the hole! O line, keep Dak upright, and open holes like you know you can! Gallimore and Odiggy, be stout against the run. Pass rushers, EAT!! DBs, TURN YOUR HEAD AND TRACK THE BALL(I’m looking squarely at you Anthony Brown)!

..and for the love of GOD, please refs let them play and don’t try to be the stars of the game. Nobody came to see you. Remember that!
Let’s go Cowboys!!
