Not trying to be negative, but something inside is telling me that Dallas isn't taking them seriously. I always have that weird feeling when every news outlet to fans have Dallas winning this accross the board. This is historically (well within the last 10 years) where we're scheduled for the big "let-down." Perhaps I'm alone on this one, or it's just instincts.
Anyhow, please tell me reasons why we're going to win? Calm my nerves lol.
 
I've never subscribed to the phrase "trap game." In the NFL, it's difficult to win games and any team could match up and execute better than another team. The good teams over come it. We'll see which one we are when the time comes.

We're a better team across the board. I could see them being a threat in the running game, but that's about it. Dallas should win this game with a substantial cushion.
 
To early to be a trap game. If we were 4 or 5-0 then maybe. But the egirls aren’t a push over. It was good to see that the chargers beat the chiefs.

Let’s jump on the egirls and show them what we are.

Chill
 
If this team is serious about letting the world know that they are a different team, they come out tonight and win by multiple scores. If they don't then buckle up for close finishes and nail biters along the way. This game should provide us with an early idea of what they are all about going forward this season.

How is it a trap game?

We are playing the Panthers next. It's not like we'd be looking ahead to playing Tampa or the Chiefs.
 
Trap games aren't in the NFL, that's college. NFL teams have learned over the years how hard it is to win and just when they think an opponent is wounded, they find out differently.

The talent level is too balanced in the NFL to take any team lightly and the coaching staffs will not allow that. Not much looking past the upcoming opponent for any team.
 
the fans might be taking the eagles less serious.

the players are not, they know the business.
 
I don't feel like it's a trap game. Philly is clearly a tier below both the last two opponents (Bucs, Chargers) but is still a dangerous team. I seriously doubt anyone is looking past them.
 
i thought " trap games" were more so teams so low and losing on the totem poll that could cause us to
lax and careless, that they could upset us

i don't see Philly of all teams being a trap, low expectation opposing teams. Its just the opposite, it will be a game
where we're alert, .anxious and motivated.

Now i can see the upcoming Carolina game as the most probably "trap" game.. we being way too over-confident and too cocky as thinking game already won by just showing up.

That feeling you get is from fans, not the players or coaches.
 
They have the same record as us...how could this be a trap game?
 
Even if the Eagles leave Dallas tonight at 2-2.

They have Kansas City, Carolina, Tampa Bay and Las Vegas. So they won’t pull too much ahead
