Detroit had this game circled as soon as the schedules came out

[Canadian BoyzFan]

Detroit will run at will.

Will be ugly. Sorry friends.

No team circles the Cowboys anymore. They are not a powerhouse. Just another team on the schedule

 

[Aven8]

If the Cowboys could just stop having penalties and score Touchdowns instead of FG’s this thing will look a whole lot better. On Sunday we had 445 yards of offense on Pitts vaunted D. We just need to start converting TD’s.

I

All three aforementioned teams would beat Dallas. Point not made.

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

Exactly. Dallas game = bye week for Detroit.

Well.... I'm sure they know we're not the Panthers, and are capable of beating them.... and they'll prepare for us and expend as much energy as they would we're they playing the Chargers, Seahawks, or Colts.... but some people In here just LOVE to imagine that they're the center of every other city's and fanbase's attention.

It's kinda sad when you think about it... creating your own imaginary universe where everyone is always thinking about you.

(Yes....I just described Jerry Jones)

Dallas had this game circled as well. Lets not forget that. All they heard was how lucky we got to get the win last year. MAYBE our players also have pride and want to make a point come Sunday. That said, if we come out soft, lethargic, and uninspired, it will be over at halftime. Make no mistake, if both teams come out with their A game, it will be a brutal battle down to the end. Win or lose, I wanna see how we fight, much like last week.

 

[Rayman70]

Dallas is beat up and emptied their tank on Sunday night.

Detroit is rested, healthy, and looking for payback from last year.

They have better team speed, toughness, scheme, and discipline.

This is a bad matchup for us when we are healthy— but we are at least at home with some good vibes after Sun night.

If the offense can run the ball, limit mistakes, and keep it close — give Dallas a puncher’s chance for the win.

Gotta get Goff uncomfortable and we need beast Mazi and Linval to show up

must make Goff have happy feet and flush him out of the pocket. If he remains in the pocket we are done. He has been really good when hes got time in the pocket. This means we need to get push up the gut like we did at Pitt. Make him think about it.

 

[Canadian BoyzFan]

I would be willing to bet they try that same tackle eligible play.

Cowboys should come into this game w/a guns blazing mentality.

We will need a shootout to win. Deep middle, seam shots all day. Ferguson could have a huge day like the Seattle game last year.

 

[Mikexike]

Any game is winnable in the NFL, Just depends on who wants to show up on game day...

Is it the Hard nose football player that's gonna show up or is it the paycheck collector thats showing up???

 

[panchucko]

another home blow out

 

[NFCBeasts]

I can’t remember the last time we started 0-3 at home ? We are due … Dallas 33 Lions 24

 

[Thomas82]

Our offense is going to win this game

We need a repeat performance of last year's game from CeeDee to have a chance.

We need CeeDee to have a similar game to the one he had against the Lions last year.

Exactly. Dallas game = bye week for Detroit

No team in the NFL should be treating their opponent like a "bye week." Don't care what their record is or how good they look leading up to match up against another team. That is how upsets happen in the NFL every Sunday. If any team goes into a game not prepping and practicing a hard because they are taking their opponent lightly, then they deserve to get beat. This includes when the Cowboys have played down to teams who on paper they were "superior" roster wise over.

 

[darealvelle]

They must of forgot about the no call tripping foul.

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

Det - 38
Dal - 23

 

[Teague31]

Who cares? We’ve been everybody’s Super Bowl for 40 years

Unless its in the playoffs

To hell with the Lions.. They are right the latest sexy pick to do something. They aint done jack and they still have Jared Goff at QB. If you put even a little heat on him he'll fold. Zimmer must know that. Unleash the hounds on his arse early and watch him crumble. I also think our improved speed on defense allows us to match up better with their offense. That damn Overshown is a heat seeking missile out there. Mazi Smith has started figuring stuff out and Joseph done found the fountain of youth. Really all the rotational guys have showed up the last two games. I look for them to keep it up!
