Theoretically we should have no excuse not to demolish them.

However division game and we have put up clunkers against 2nd and 3rd string teams before

Agree, and since we are the only game on tomorrow at 3:30, I want to see a blow out by us that the network can't switch away from like they did on Sunday.

I keep seeing people say that. Here in San Antonio they didn't switch the game. We love our Cowboys so I guess they know better.

Where are you located?

Stop the run. Cowboys blow them out. I want a comfortable thanksgiving. See a big game from pollard again

The key to this game is disciplined run fits. If we can get them to go down a couple of scores then they are screwed.

Their roster is certainly not designed to come from behind. So don't let them stay ahead of the chains running, and put them into a situation where Jones has to pass every play to win the game.

Then we will see the disadvantage on the line. If they run successfully we will be in a dogfight.

Remember in 2020 we had the same situation against the Giants at MetLife and almost won the game. CeeDee dropped the pass from Dalton.

That 2020 team didn't have Micah Parsons, Sam Williams and Dante Fowler. Those three along with Tank gives the Cowboys 4 REALLY tough to block pass rushers. The Giants' only chance is going to be to run it 50 times. If they get to even 20 pass attempts they will lose by 3 TDs and Daniel Jones will watch the end of the game from a hospital bed.

Dallas also boasted one of the best cocaine, alcohol, sleep deprivation lineups the NFL had ever witnessed. Likely cause for the few clunkers we saw from time to time.

Actually the cause for that clunker was none of the reasons you mentioned.. It was league MVP EMmitt Smith leaving the game after taking a helmet to his thigh on his first carry. Emmitt was the heart and soul of that team and as good as they were they tended to crater when he wasn't around. They were already missing Troy from one of his many concussions that day. Kosar was decent.. but he wasn't equipped to pilot that team without Emmitt.

Aikman was out with a pulled hamstring. He hurt it against the Giants the previous week.

While their OL has taken a huge hit in injuries, no one can say that the Cowboys are going into this game with a completely healthy defense.
