Cowboys benefit from Schedule again this week

[Jkyle]

This will be the second week in a row that Dallas faces an opponent playing on MNF the previous week.
The Cowboys benefited from Washington having the shorter week and the injuries that resulted from the MNF game.

Ok. Then we get screwed again later in the season.

Must have forgotten we played to consecutive games in which our opponent had mini byes playing the Thursday prior to playing the Cowboys (Rams and Packers).

Having an opponent with 10 days to prepare is much more of a disadvantage than facing teams playing Monday Night.

We better beat a KC team playing with less time to prepare.

Hope KC gets their injured players beaten up worse. We're behind the 8-ball with the young guys we had to play with early in the season, so I'm happy to play beaten up, dilapidated teams, and I'd be happy to do it for the next 9 weeks.

It’s Andy Reid. Trust me he will already be prepared.

Our defense better be ready for the speed that’s coming from that offense.

It’s funny to think that we are benefiting from the schedule while playing the Chiefs. Benefiting from the schedule would mean we get to play the colts or browns.

Agreed. The extra day helps a little, but the Chiefs are a very good team.

That's a great point. I have a ton of respect for Andy Reid. I still expect a close game.

Pretty sure we will get outcoached in this game so it's up to the players to rise to the occasion.

Well, we did get to play the 49ers and the Deadskins.

Funny thing is, if you look at the Chiefs' schedule, this is about the biggest disadvantage they have all year. Only once during their schedule do they play back to back road games. However, they have a bye in between those two games. That is a bye that is smack dab in the middle of the season after they play Dallas. They also have 3 consecutive games at home in December. They do not play a single game against a team coming off of a bye.

I guess they did have that short week before going out to Oakland last Thursday.
