After Eagles Come Undefeated Panthers

[blueblood70]

Wilson
Winston
Mills.

2 rooks and a washed-up never-was Winston. (They aint done anything yet)

they do have a good defense but we just played two very good defenses on the road on different coast and did pretty well.. they better be worried about us as well..

Bottom line: most games are dog fights, and Darnold beat us like a drum with that lousy Jets team.
Like every game, it will be a challenge. We’ve been more fortunate than most teams in that to this point, we haven’t lost players for the year. Battle, stay around or above .500, and it will be fun to see what we look like when Collins, DLaw, Gallimore, and others return.

Is it fair the Cowboys have gotten the same10 day advantage after the Thanksgiving game for as long as I can remember?

Actually I they have been playing on the Thursday night after as of late....and they pay for it with a 4 day turn the week prior....

I agree no reason for fans to be whining about this, but it would have been a bit more logical to have this week's game a normal Sunday game vs a Monday night...good news is both are home games.

I think most fans issue is with they get 10 days, we get 6, instead of the usual 7.
But that is fine, it is not like it has not happened before, to us, as well other teams also.

All teams have been doing this enough now, 6 or 7 days, does not make a difference to game planning. Just to players to recover if any small injuries. At least it is not 4 days.
This does not bother me any. We will get 10 days later in the year. Though Washington plays a Sunday after we get our 10 days. That is fine.

Remember that "easy" part of the schedule? Not so fast.

The Cowboys will play a 3-0 Panthers team in game #4. The Panthers are not only undefeated, they have the #1 defense in both points and yardage. By the way, the Eagles defense is ranked #2 in points allowed.

What I don't understand is how the NFL would think it fair to have a team that played 10 days ago versus a team that played 6 days ago.

That's right. A team that played on a Thursday night will be paired with a team that played on Monday night. There isn't any other way the NFL could have scheduled this game?

Who have the Panthers actually played with that Defense of theirs?

The Cowboys are better than the Panthers. See left tackle Cam Erving.

Winston is VERY hit and miss.

He can look All-Pro one week and a bottom 5 the next.

He's the only potentially decent QB they've faced. Besides him it's been 2 rookies I believe.

 

[blueblood70]

They haven’t played a team the caliber of the Cowboys yet.

OR we are overrated we will find out in this 3 game homestand as the real season starts to heat up..we shall see,

you play to answer those questions..

 

[rambo2]

McCaffrey has 9 days.. I doubt he misses the Dallas game unless that injury is severe.

He is lame.

The Cowboys are not overrated.

 

[Jarntt]

If McCaffrey doesn't play Car is not what i would call a tough matchup

 

[blueblood70]

The Cowboys are not overrated.

they are UNRATED, thats my point...

2 games is not enough, so you cant say that until game 17 homie..get that straight..

we were 3-0 in 2019 and many here said tap the brakes and guess what 8-8 failed season couldn't buy win going down the stretch's..

this isnt about 1-1 after 2 games and effort its about overall results..lets play 10 then come back and debate..

we were 3-5 in 18 and written off guess what 2nd round of the playoffs..fans pout too much stock early in season and start making predictions..

INC TBD UNrated whatever you want to call the Cowboy's current team. small sample size says stay tuned..its lie the NCAAF preseason rankigs and more then half slide out of the top 25 by game 4 ,,its nothing but opinions being formed and not enough games being played..

keep emotions out of this...

Strained hamstring which is 2-4 weeks depending on severity. He won’t play. They are 3-0. No need to force him back so early in the season on an injury that can linger and be reaggravated so easily.

 

[G2]

F the Panthers.

 

[blueblood70]

F the Panthers.

umm f the eagles..they are first we skipping over them , im sure the players and coaches are not, the eagles are also 1-1 have better Net Points by long shot..we llay to find out whos better not proclaim whos better..

It may feel healed in 9 days, but it won't be. Usually the second time you pull a hamstring it's worse.

I keep my opinions real and just because it’s my team doesn’t mean I’m not giving a real opinion.

If I wasn’t a fan of this team and I saw this 7 game stretch I’d have Dallas picked in every game except the Vikings.

The reality is we could go 7-0… Worst case if 5-2.

This upcoming schedule is soft and the softness starts with Dallas playing at home for nearly a month.

It's the easiest 7 game stretch of any team in the league.
But as we know....any given Sunday. "Easy" is only a relative term in the NFL.
Ask New Orleans---blew out Green bay, then got stomped by Carolina.

I see the range as 7-0 best, 4-3 or 3-4 worst. But most likely 6-1

beat us like drum, drama much we lost late on bad penalty maybe wrong one on made fg that was then missed after the penalty lost by 2 on the road is not being beat like drum and we were missing like 5 starters..bad loss yes beat like drum is dramatic overreaction..

True.
They did the right thing by pulling him immediately when he felt a twinge. It did not look serious, but it was real.
I think they liked their odds vs Houston either way.
