There's something ya' don't hear very often: "I think that Trevor Siemian gives them a great opportunity to win". 
Schlereth sounded pretty reasonable in his interview. And then...... his wheels fell off right at the end.

I see what you are saying, but based on the football I watched Sunday, I think he with his surroundings will be far more competitive than was Eli with his surroundings...so there is that.There's something ya' don't hear very often: "I think that Trevor Siemian gives them a great opportunity to win".
In other words, while I still believe the Cowboys will win, I find it difficult to believe we will hold them to 3 points or less.

I see this game as very similar to the Giants game. We're playing another team with a top 5 defense and a bad offense. I think this game will play out very similarly, with our pass rush looking good against a subpar to bad offensive line, and our elite offense will move the ball effectively against a great defense. Hopefully we can convert more of those long drives into TDs this game, as that was the one weak spot against the Giants.

Schlereth a major league homer and DC hater for good reason (I guess). But IMO his comments are pretty spot on. Semien had a pretty good game last week for a "game manager". It's going to be a war for 4 quarters. We protect the ball and keep running the ball, we should be ok.

That there is the type of thinking upsets are made of. That was last year. This is this year. Or do you believe a player is doomed to be what ever he was in his rookie season for the remainder of his career?

For what it is worth, I agree.
By that same token, this game will likely be a bigger challenge than the Giants...but that's just my opinion.

I feel basically the same as I did in week 1. I dont think it will be an easy win but I'm confident Dallas will go to Denver, play their style, push the Broncos around most of the game, and end up winning by two scores. Could they lose, sure, but I don't see it happening.

Don't be. Miller won't get shut out totally but he won't single handedly wreck our offense. Those days are over

Don't agree with him being a hater. All last year he was only one of the few that was behind the Cowboys and always said good things, while other experts were trying to stir things with us.

Way better, but not good? Huh...
Interesting way to put it.

I'm not. Miller will win his share of battles, but to win the game, every Bronco has to win like Miller...and that ain't happening. For me, the question is rather or not the Cowboys defense can have success against the Broncos offense similar to last week. If so, we win...because the Broncos are not going to prevent the Cowboys from scoring. They have a good defense, but I'd say the Giants is better...and we all know how that turned out.

It's really hard to be worse then the Gents....we're talking about a team with all those "weapons" that hasn't scored over 20 points in the last 8 games...

Fair point. About 5 years ago he was a speaker at a church function up here in south Denver. I had the opportunity to speak with him afterwards and he made no bones about the attention of JJ/Americas Team and all the hoopla surrounding the DC. He's probably lightened up since and actually I was a little surprised there was no anti DC sentiment in his discussion in this interview.

True... Just the Way part- you'd think that would bump the scale up to mediocre.It's really hard to be worse then the Gents....we're talking about a team with all those "weapons" that hasn't scored over 20 points in the last 8 games...

Also watch out for Wolfe up the middle. He apparently has a gimpy ankle but he's a force on the rush and run game.
