I think this is going to be the game that the Cowboys put it all together and send a big ** to all of the naysayers out there who are waiting for the Cowboys to choke. Yes, the Cowboys have finally arrived and now have the talent, experience, and maturity to put it all together. There isn't going to be a December/Playoff meltdown or some bizarre play to end the season on a sour note. Every team in the NFL right now is waiting for a meltdown, as if that was the only thing that would give them a chance at a SB. It ain't gonna happen.

Enjoy this season folks, because the type of team we have assembled tends to not last very long in the salary cap era (although the Cowboys FO deserve a lot of credit to do the best they can to keep this team together for a multiple SB run).

Now, back to this week's prediction. Enjoy this game folks, because this also happens to be the game the pesky Commanders get put in their proper place. Folks, understand something. Every year the Commanders Nation play this underdog darkhorse role in the NFL. Their whole identity is based on a myth created in 1982 and it has been an increasing watered down version of that same myth ever since.

Yes folks, it's going to be an ugly, humiliating loss for the Commanders. It will send them home and put the rest of their season in a tailspin. And then in November, we are going to do it to them again at FedEx. All doubts will be erased. But for now, enjoy this week:

Cowboys 45, Commanders 10

BOOK IT!!!

The Cowboys are 26-9 against the Commanders at Texas Stadium. Occasionally I think numbers mean something.

27-9 Dallas. We keep them out of the end zone.

Depends. How many times will Gurode snap the ball over Tony's head?

A big factor in Dallas winning big is the time of possession battle and the fact the big OL can wear teams down if given enough time. One reason we've done poorly at Texas Stadium is that our running game has been atrocious there in recent years.

If the Commanders win time of possession.....Commanders 30 Dallas 27

If the Cowboys win time of possession....Cowboys 35 Commanders 14

What are the Vegas odds on the game? I caught a tail end of a sportscast and I thought the announcer said it is something like Dallas +11 points. Is that right?

I'll go with Dallas 38, Skins 13

edit: Make that Dallas 38, Skins 20 because we probably give up a meaningless TD in garbage time like we did against the Pack.

Dallas 28, Washington 14. I just don't think the Commanders have enough firepower.

Throwing 3-4 passes ain't going to get in skins in the end zone. Campbell will have to try to go deep, and will get picked.

MBIII and the front 5 controls the LOS, skins can;t get any pass rush.

Cowboys 35
Commander 13

Fixed it for you!!! If you haven't noticed, we don't need alot of time to score and your team's middle of the pack defense should be just as susceptible to the big play as PHI, GB, or CLE.

Technically, that is incorrect. The line reads Dallas -11 points...They are the favorites not the underdogs

Ok, so minus (-) means favorites. I can never keep the + - straight. It seems counterintuitive to me.

I have no idea.

I do think the skins are going to score a bunch of points though. The only way I think they dont is if our pass rush is really good early and they have to keep dumping it off really quick.

I can see the winning team having 28 or 31 points though.

The weather should be terrific tomorrow. Its not hot, its not cold. There is no wind and it is on turf. That is a recipe for big plays from both teams.

Our only game on turf we scored 41. So I am expecting big plays from both teams all over. I dont see anyway the skins slow down witten. And I really think the Commanders will attack pacman.

I cant wait to get to the stadium.
