I'm tired of all the reasons the Cowboys should or will win. Sounds good on paper...it's logical since we've proven to be a bad matchup for them recently. Still, they are both good teams, and the best team on the field tonight wins.
I'm especially sick of the media and their so unbelievably transparent way of finding the ridiculous illogical reasons the Cowboys will lose. December collapse? Like that's an actual thing, like a disease? Maybe it was because we weren't that good and were playing pressure games. I was totally sickened by the reasoning I heard yesterday from Dukes..."All the pressure is on Dallas...they are expected to win...they are at home...they haven't won a playoff game in a while." Such BS....like I guess there's now a new reason for teams to prefer being on the road against superior teams that have beaten them twice just so the pressure won't be on them. Like Philly losing twice to Dallas, being embarrassed in a game that would have given them the division, the 2nd seed, and a bye now is less pressure because they are on the road.
Yes, Philly could win, but it won't be because of any curses, swoons, or pressure of playing at home, nor will it have anything to do with the fact that we haven't won a playoff game in a while...most of these players have only been in the NFL 4-5 years, so that's means little to them.
The team that wins the game tonight will be the team that simply plays the best on the field. Barring some freakish refereeing screwup that throws a close game unfairly to the other team, the best team on the field tonight wins.
Period...all the rest, including coaching, is, at this point, crap. The teams are ready; the game-plans are set...the players that execute the best in all 3 phases will be celebrating after the game.
