If we could get a bump from special teams, Turpin I'm looking at you, that would be gold, jump in front of them scoring first, then realese the hounds!

Dallas can win this game, defense however will have their work cut out for them. Dallas Goedert is putting up impressive numbers at TE to go along with Brown and Smith on the outside and of course the run game Sanders currently 3rd in the NFL. This will be a very good test for the Cowboys. I hate Philly probably more than any team out there but I'm not blind to what I see, this is a much improved Eagles team Dallas will be facing and they are playing with a lot of confidence. Cowboys will need to play very good ball if they hope to come out with the win. Our offense will need to up their game, we need to do a much better job on 3rd down in converting them and we will need WR to go out and make some big plays for us. If Not, Philly will sit on the run until you can force them to back off.
Agreed. We should be the underdog. The Eagles are the second best team in the NFC next to San Francisco right now. The offense has to make some plays or it will be a long night.

I see this as a game we give up a lot of yards, but not points.

Pinning their ears back and rushing from the edge all game will be Daniel Jones running on them all over again, just more dangerous.
Create pressure up the middle, spy QB, hold the edge and hold them to FGs.

The Eagles offense has had at least 3 games where they got off to hot starts by scoring TDs on 2 or 3 drives. But then scored very little to no points after those hot offensive starts. Some fans might speculate that it's because of the Eagles coaching staff deciding to go conservative after jumping out to double digit leads.

But, if the defenses in those games contributed to the Eagles offense slowing down by making adjustments, I'm sure Dan Quinn is looking at the film to see what they did.

i don’t think he is
Can you let him know?

hopefully stopping the run.

Sanders is going to pop a 15-20 yarder. Hurts will probably shake free for a 25 yard scramble. Cant help that. You just cant let them systematically wear you down with their running game. If Dallas can stall this rushing attack, they will keep the score in the teens/low 20s and is certainly a winnable game with Rush.

I noticed their 2nd half struggles as well. They are only averaging 5.3 pts in the 2nd half of games. Twice they have been shut out in the 2nd half, and once they have scored only 3. The game they scored their most 2nd half points on was against the awful Lions D, and even then they were shut out in the 4th (possibly trying to milk the clock for part of that).
