I don't know about you all but with the Eagles jelly schedule, I think we need to sweep them to keep them from winning the division. Best scenario is that we win and that Owens plays well. When I say well I mean 100+ yards, 2 touchdown-well.

Thoughts?

Eagles may have had a jelly schedule early, but it's a ***** down the stretch. We are about to embark on the toughest stretch of our schedule. If we come through pretty well, then we're in good shape.

Every game is a must-win. We accept no losses as tolerable. We are not Commanders fans.

It's a very important game if for no other reason it is a division game.

Dallas has a tough midseason schedule but a very, very easy ending. 5 of our last 7 are at home, including cupcake games against Detroit and New Orleans.

If we can be 6-3 coming off that 3 game road trip (Doable, we should handle Houston, New York and Arizona, and that leaves us needing to beat just one of Philly, Carolina or Washington), we will be in very good shape.

Indy will be a tough game, but Tampa Bay, New Orleans and Detroit should all be wins, and I like our chances at home against Philly.

Basically, if Dallas wins all the games they should win, we only need to win one "hard" game all year, as wins over Washington, Tennessee, Houston, New York, Arizona, Tampa Bay, New Orleans, Philly and Detroit will put us at 9 wins.

That leaves us needing to win one of Carolina, Philly, New York, Atlanta, Washington, or Indy to get to 10 wins.

no road game week 4 is a must win but we need to beat them as they're just an average team.

No. It is a must play well game. Even great teams take 4 road losses a year

Be Ware, I don't know if it's a must win as much as it's a statement game. They seem to feel that despite beating no-one that they are the cream of the East. Smack them around and all of a sudden.....

This is more of a must win game for the birds than for dallas.

You have no idea the state of mind that this city will be in if the eagles lose at home to the cowboys and TO. There will be so much pressure on the eagles to perform after that and the local media will run away with it.

The eagles will also be 0-2 in their division.

On the other hand if the cowboys lose here we can still expect them to win in dallas and split with philly.

I like how you put that: "It is a must play well game."

If the Cowboys are going to become a top flight team this year, they need to continue to develop - to continue to improve. A win or a loss (while important) is less important than showing continued progress and development.
