I honestly believe the best thing that could have happened was a blowout win by the skins Sunday night. Coming in to this game over confident with a short week to prepare will definitely benefit the Cowboys. Just like the ravens and the steelers, I expect them to come out fired up and playing like this is their SB and after the adrenaline wears off (so long as the game doesn't get out of hand early). We will exert our will on them and wear them down til they relent and leave out of ATT stadium yapping about how they should of won the game. It will be sweet dessert to my thanksgiving dinner feasting on the skins and their fans tears.
This is not to say that I do not have a healthy respect for the division rivalry and understanding that the better does not always win. But I believe that this cowboys team is finally buying into what Garrett is selling (as evident by the parroting of the players in their interviews). Garrett's constant preaching of process, stacking good days on top of good days, not looking beyond the next practice or next game, understanding that banners aren't hung in Nov/Dec...you got to finish the job), every team in the NFL is a good team capable of beating you if your not appropriately prepared, etc., along with the comraderie of the team, and talent level will be enough to propel this team to victory Thursday.
