Next week will be interesting but it is a massive step down in QB from Brady and Burrow to this dude in NY.
Dallas can definitely play with more leeway.
Much more likely next week Diggs gets a pick for instance.
Offensively will be really interesting.
Dallas has some run power and some offensive speed.
What they don't have is an ability to overcome mistakes with penalties and sacks or lost yardage.
They cannot have a bunch of 3 and outs that let the Giants wear down our fast but undersized defensive guys.
Really hope next week is easier sledding. Then we see if Dak is back or not for the Commodes.
TLDR version; At year's end I expect Tampa to be a top 3 seed in NFC. I expect Cincy to bounce back and make the playoffs. I definitely do NOT expect NYG to make the playoffs.
Cincinnati is a much better overall football team than NY, but NY will have a playoff shot most of the season due to the division they are in.
On the field, it's really all about direct matchups, and Dallas matched well against Cincy. I picked them to win amongst the mess that was this team a week ago.
I'm just not sure they can keep the intensity that they had yesterday....which they desperately needed....on the road in front of a fired up Monday night crowd.
Itll be a way different environment than yesterday and history just tells me they won't build on yesterday, they will take their foot off the gas to the point where they do just enough to get beat.
They are the absolute WORST when it comes to building on success, and I'm not sure certain people and their sunshine pumping to the media to make themselves look better helps that cause.
That's a major reason why this team repeatedly cannot get to the next level, game to game, or season to season.
