Cowboys Vs. Atlanta Who Will Win?

[Ranched]

Defensively, the 'Boys must stop the run and pressure Ryan and limit big plays to Jones. The 'Boys will try to establish the run yet once again, only this time with Morris.

The Falcons D gave up 86 yards on nine carries to Cam last week. After a 3-0 start, Atlanta has lost four of five and is averaging less than 20 points a game during that stretch. Atlanta must face a 'Boys D that has held its past three opponents under 20 points in consecutive double digit wins.

I see DLaw getting a sack or two in this game. In addition to rushing the passer, he's stout against the run as well. I would like to see Dak get a rushing TD as well being he passed for 249 yards and two touchdowns a week ago. He has 10 rushing TD's since '16, the most by an NFL QB. Wentz who?
'Boys leave Atlanta with a W.

Agree, our DL will be the difference maker, but mainly it's on Dak who's on fire. $ on a W

This is a MUST win. Egals eyes will be clued to the TV. Would love to ruin their Sunday biting their nails with a 6-3 record.

I am not a conspiracy kind of guy, but I don't see any chance we walk away with a W, the way things are going. Maybe we'll actually draw a holding call though, that would be nice.

How well is atlantas OL playing?

A team that is 3rd in sacks draws no holding calls. If that isn't some BS then I don't know what is

This is where Linehan needs to show off a little bit. A short passing game that can equate to the run if it's not there (Witten/Beasley) wo Zeke. Still keep balance, but the 2/3 TEs on 1st and 2nd shouldn't be the gameplan, etc. Keep that motion, PA rollouts and crossing routes coming. Witten has been MIA for a few weeks so he might be a big part of this game wo Dez. I really just hope they don't play too conservative wo Zeke n Dez.

Atlanta is tough to beat at home, but Dallas is the better team and is playing better.

I think they will find a way to pull away in the 4th quarter. Dallas 23-20

 

[Hardline]

Julio Jones has the ability to single handedly beat this team. Got to limit him for sure.

They struggled in Carolina badly. No running lanes and the pocket collapsed on Ryan regularly. IF we want this game, we win. JG gotta get ‘em ready!

This is exactly who I am worried about the most. If we let him get going it is going to be a long day.

He’s banged up and not his usual self.

We do tend to make injured guys play all world though. If Brown covers him, Jones is going for 150+

He played on one leg in Carolina due to an ankle issue and lacked quick acceleration and top end speed. Dropped an easy TD pass due to the ankle getting into his head. If he is no better than he was last week, he is defendable. Again, we need to play keep away most of the day, with Dak having fewer than 30 passes.

Nah, he wasn't able to do anything playing for the 'boys, I doubt very highly he could "single handedly" do so now.

That’s my concern. Nightmares of the Calvin Johnson game.

 

[csirl]

Cowboys 24-17. Think the defense will do ok and keep the score reasonably low.

 

[Pants]

23-17 Dallas....

 

[fishspill]

DL will finally draw a holding call.
Cowboys lose close. 27-23.

 

[Risen Star]

Have to win this game for any chance at a backdoor playoff berth. You have a drubbing scheduled next week. Just a real soul taking shellacking.

Really? The refs? Or Jerry agitating the Falcons by suing their owner?

I don't understand why so many seem to be leaning acons for this one. They basically lost 5 of their last 6 games (I consider the DET game a defacto loss). If Jerry hadn't ruled them up, I'd be very confident about this one. As it is, I still expect a win.
