Commanders have a brutal schedule coming up for like 7 straight weeks and we have a victory over them, if we somehow lose the division to them we have no one to blame but ourselves but I don't see it.

The team coming off a bye week that is favored, has a winning percentage of 70 %.

Romo owned them in Philly which has always puzzled me. After the game we lost on Turkey day in 2014 Romo threw 3 TD passes in Philly leading us to a win. But never plays that well vs the eagles in dallas.
He actually has. He just hasn't played in many games in Dallas against the Eagles for various reasons.

It makes me feel more confident, but still doesn't make it a "non-issue". Our offensive line and run game has obviously been great, but the Eagles' defense has a history of really slowing it down too. I firmly believe that if we can have the same sort of success like we've had, we should win handily, but if they manage to shut it down, it could be a tough game as well.

In short, I think that things will ultimately be decided by our O-line against their D-line.
Remember that the Eagles will be without Benny Logan on the defensive line, and Lane Johnson on the offensive line. That should be a significant advantage for the Cowboys.

I believe that GB QB in 1991 was none other than Blair Kiel.

While we did win that game AT the Packers, it was not at Lambeau. That game was played at Milwaukee County Stadium back when they split home games between the two cities.

The first time the Cowboys won in Lambeau was September 21, 2008 when Romo quarterbacked us to a win with two deep bombs to a never-had-catch-before Miles Austin.

And yes, Aaron Rodgers was their quarterback. Why that matters? I do not know.

Oh, that's right - my bad. Ray Horton had a pick-6 in the 1991 game BTW.

I'll take it! I expected being without Lane Johnson to be a major loss. When I saw them in the preseason, it looked like the had no capable backup.

Dallas is a significantly more consistent and effective on both sides of the ball this year than it has been in many years. Philly will be challenged more than they have in a very long time. Our past should certainly not be considered an accurate measuring stick for the present. The Cowboys' experiences vs. other supposedly strong teams this year bears that out quite well. This year's team is clearly much tougher to deal with. I think Philly is destined to discover that in about 7 more days. The Cowboys are clearly immersed in a new era and should make the most of it.
