CBS Sports- Cowboys shock Patriots in New England

[mooseq]

The Super Bowl will probably be the Patriots versus the 49ers.

more like Ravens vs Saints

 

[cowboy_ron]

Wow! Multiple digs at Garrett. Lol.

There can never be too many.

 

[Beast_from_East]

Yeah, Clappy is going to go into Foxb and beat Belicheck and the GOAT.

 

[simplycowboys210]

Has anyone noticed that our run blocking this year looks like pass blocking.

 

[Risen Star]

Cowboys!

Patriots 31
Cowboys 13

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

We could make Mitch Trubisky look like Joe Montana

We'll have a chance.

Dallas (6-4) at New England (9-1)
4:25 p.m. ET (CBS)
Point spread: Patriots -6.5

If Roger Goodell could handpick the Super Bowl this year, I'm guessing he would go with these two teams,

this is good news for us, because Goodell has pretty much hand picked Super Bowl teams (and winners) more than once in the past.

 

[Ring6]

the makeup of the officiating crew is going to be one of the big factors of this game. they should have them run out of the tunnel with fog, strobes, and Enter Sandman. Touch Brady, and its 15.

 

[Elusiv1]

The key to winning this game is not to lose it!!! Thank you coach Genius

 

[cowboygo]

Wouldn’t that be some kind of confidence boost to beat the mighty Pats at home or are we so stupid we would start sniffing ourselves

Oh it could definitely happen. but we could also lose a game we aren't supposed to lose in our remaining schedule. Its the Garrett led Cowboys. We got that sweet dub last year against the Saints.

 

[Polkton31]

LT Marshall Newhouse won't start. They got their starter back. Isaiah Wynn.

True, but Wynn has only played like 2 games since being drafted in 2018. He may not be that much of an improvement. Hopefully, he is rusty and not in football shape. Even if he is ready to go, I think Quinn will give him fits.

 

[GMO415]

Media coming out against Tom saying he's only throwing underneath to receivers.

I don't want to face a pissed off Brady.

 

[Dallasfann]

I saw that too when I looked the game up. Smh....

I'd pay money to be able to watch it on CBS. Just can't stand those two horrible announcers anymore.

 

[DenCWBY]

Cowboys!

Patriots 31
Cowboys 13

Looks about right. I predict we'll give up at least 14 points on special teams plays (or flaws) alone. I don't think we've had this much inconsistency in ST in a long time.

 

[Tussinman]

Has anyone noticed that our run blocking this year looks like pass blocking.

I thought I was the only one who noticed it. Seems like most run plays the lineman just plant there feet and catch the defenders (it's kinda weird watching it on replays throughout the game).

If Roger Goodell could handpick the Super Bowl this year, I'm guessing he would go with these two teams, and that's because a Cowboys-Patriots game would likely break every TV ratings record known to man. Since 50 percent of the country's population is either a Cowboys or Patriots fan and the other 50 percent of the country would be hate-watching the game, that means 100 percent of the country would be watching. I think that's how that works. Hopefully 100 percent of the country is also watching this Sunday since the game is on CBS. I'll definitely be watching, but that's mostly because CBS is the only channel I ever watch. My contract stipulates that I'm only allowed to watch CBS and Christmas movies on the Hallmark Channel, in case you're wondering what I do with my free time.

By the way, on a somewhat related note, if I could hand pick the Super Bowl this year, it would be Steelers versus Browns and no one would be allowed to wear a helmet, but that Super Bowl isn't technically possible since both teams are in the AFC so let's move on, because I'm getting sidetracked here. I need to get to this pick before I forget which game I'm picking.

This might not be the best game of the week on paper -- that honor probably goes to Packers-49ers -- but this is definitely the most fascinating game.

For one, although you might not know it by their 9-1 record, the Patriots have been struggling on offense. As a matter fact, New England has been so bad on offense this year that the normally chipper Tom Brady got kind of short with the media after New England's 17-10 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

To be fair, I'd be dejected too if I took the hits that Brady took against the Eagles. The Patriots offensive line hasn't been great this year, and one of their biggest weaknesses has been left tackle Marshall Newhouse.



Does Marshall Newhouse know that his quarterback is 42 years old and can't afford be taking hits like that? I don't care how pliable Brady is, if he keeps getting hit like that, the Patriots aren't going to be able to do anything on offense, and I don't expect them to do much in this game.

As for the Cowboys, they're one of the few teams in the NFL that can actually attack the Patriots defense the way that the Ravens did; you know, the one team that actually beat the Patriots this year. The Cowboys have the quarterback, the running back and the wide receivers to be able to move the ball on New England, and the scary part for the Patriots is that the Cowboys offense might have more talent than Baltimore's (the Ravens offense is definitely better coached, but the Cowboys probably have more overall talent). If the Patriots defense has had one weakness this year, it's stopping the run, so I'm fully expecting Jason Garrett to copy the Ravens' game plan, which is smart for two reasons. For one, that means Garrett won't have to come up with a game plan of his own, which is arguably a good thing for Dallas. And two, the Ravens game plan worked, so why not use something similar.

Guys, I'm 10-0 picking Patriots games this year and I'm putting my perfect record on the line by picking against the Patriots.

The pick: Cowboys 27-24 over Patriots

Just want to point out that will be a penalty if the Cowboys hit Brady like that.

Don't copy the Ravens. Belichick already has the game plan for beating them finished up and sitting on his laptop.

 

[Bowdown27]

LT Marshall Newhouse won't start. They got their starter back. Isaiah Wynn.

I was going to say that. Hopefully he’s just a little rusty coming back

 

[JoeKing]

Lions beat the Patriots 26-10 last year, finished the year 6 - 10.

What's your point? I don't see the connection between that and the thread topic.

Refs please don’t make a questionable roughing call on any of his sacks.

The refs will definately protect the GOAT. Your request while reasonable is an unlikely.
