Hey, chill out. Let em' play...

They haven't been playing great, but they do have some talent and they will get their act together.

Enjoy the journey. They all have ups and downs... The downs make the ups all the more sweeter.

Thank you. You're my kinda fan.
 
They've got lots of problems too and it's not a given that they will beat the Cowboys, who I think play better on the road.

Problem is the 'boys self destruct too much, from awful line play to dropped passes and wrong route running. Hard to believe this team has had almost two years with JG and the play is still so undisciplined and unprepared.

This.... :(
 
Not only are they undisciplined and unprepared. They are way too inconsistent.

Agree 100%.
I want to win bad...but I am preparing for a bad loss.

part of me hopes that it's an absolute blow out, that Romo has to run for his life (but not get hurt, pleeeease), that the run game goes no where and that Ray Rice runs over the Dline.

I say that hoping that maybe the embarrassment will force Jerry to do something ... but we know Jerry won't do that. He'll go out and pickup some CB off the street instead. :)

The talent is there, I just hope the guys can start to put things together the way we saw Week 1. THey have the ability...just have to execute. They put things together and they're unstoppable.

Awesome.....

So we have a very slim chance at winning.....

Cool, should save you time from watching the game then.
 
For the Cowboys to win, they need to do 2 things:

1. Get after Flacco. He's not a very accurate passer when he's throwing on the run.

2. DON'T abandon the running game. Don't run the ball 16 times and expect to win. It just won't happen. Remember that KC ran the ball 46 times last week against the Ravens for over 200 yards. And, KC's not a world beater.

I'm not worried about this game. I don't know why. The Cowboys are 16-7 after a bye week. The Ravens have committed the most penalties in the AFC this season. The Ravens D isn't all that it's been in previous years.

Whatever happened to keeping the faith?
 
I'm pretty confident we will blow them out.

Ratliff to to DL takes the whole D up to a new level, which is scary given how top notch they already were without him. It will be even scarier when Spencer returns, and he may very well play tomorrow.

And on offense I see improvements too. Say whatever you want, but Costa on the OL is an upgrade. Dallas has also worked out Dockery at RG so more accountability has been injected. And finally Dalls will be hsing more single-back formations with 2-TE sets, which is actually better for keeping defenses guessing, limiting the routes receivers run - good for Dez to better focus his responsibilities - and enabling the zone running scheme.


For all these reasons, I think we'll play our best football, show that we can evolve into an elite team and that average-at-best teams like Baltimore are not in our league.
 
The only turnovers we can hope for is if Dware gets in for a strip sack or Ray Rice fumbles or something.

We don't generate near enough pressure to force the QB into throwing bad passes that turn into INTs, my guess is Flacco will have all day to throw and will find guys open in the zone.

I can already see Romo throwing a TAINT to Ed Reed and giving the Ravens 7 easy points, i think he's thrown an INT in the first half of each game this year, that has to change if we're to have a chance in hell of winning.

Answer these two questions honestly.....

1) Could you see us winning week one?
2) Could you see us losing week two?

Wouldn't go that far, but I do believe we may/can be a better football team than the Ravens.

Before I get into why, I will acknowledge the obvious fact that this team hasn't played a good game/close to it's potential, in a month......and that's concerning.

Here's what I look at when comparing teams in order of significance.

1) QB Play. Romo is better than Flacco.
2) Defense. Ours has played better year to date.
3a) OL. Theirs is clearly better.
3b) Offensive Skill Players. Ours are clearly better.

I believe it will be a tight game and special teams could decide it. Perhaps Dez takes on to the house early in the 4th quarter to open up a two score lead for us.
 
Oh my dear citizens...!

I like all the positive vibes, but, the Cowboys will not win this game.

They won't have a run game and that is what kills this team. Perhaps the defense may keep it close, but the futility of the offense is what will doom the Cowboys. They will go into next game at 2-3...
