Early Dallas vs. Denver predictions

[Jammer]

I think this is where the Cowboys lose and all the so called experts state the Cowboys were always overrated.

I expect a rather easy Denver win, but I can a few instances where the Cowboys can pull it out. I mean Plummer can't change his spots in one season can he?

 

[MichaelWinicki]

I like Hostile coming in with an itchy trigger finger myself.

Better than smelly.

 

[Kangaroo]

I think we lose 24-7

The defense has struggled to stop the run recently and Denver is one of the best running teams in the game. I think they run the ball all over this young defense. I think this will be a hard lesson for the youg players and one that will leave them with a bitter taste going into the next week.

Yes I am worried about Denver's running game vs Dallas's defense

 

[rgcowboys]

I cant see the Cowboys playing this poor forever so I think they snap out of it and beat the Broncos 27-24. Now if they keep playing this way (flat, no pass rush, and lethargic offense) the Broncos will blow us out on Thanksgiving 34-13

Denver -24
Dallas - 13

We will lose a close game. Denver is a Super Bowl contender. We are not quite there yet. Next year we will be.

Broncos have the same short week as us, and have to fly to Dallas.

And I dont know how serious it was, but Tatum Bell had a shoudler injury, and Anderson carried 25 times. Good chance theyre spent

Saddle hanging in the locker room this week. In for a rough ride but to ride high into the playoffs we need to tame the Broncos.


Talentwise the Broncos are not close to the best we have played. But this may be the best coach we have faced.

Bronco's doing it with smoke and mirrors. Hopeful we don't fall prey to their trap.

I am really amazed at how many here are picking Denver to beat us - basically saying Dallas has no chance. Most saying Denver runs too well and is a bad matchup for us.

I don't think you're giving the Dallas D enough credit. Dallas is gonna be a tough matchup for Denver. We are a bruising ball control team as well. The Giants beat this team for crying out loud. Denver is also playing a tough tough road game on 3 days rest. Dallas is having home cooking.

Close game maybe, but Denver is the one who should be sweating this one out, not Dallas. Plus its freaking Jake Plummer. Or have you guys forgot about how this guy has played us in the past already.

This will be our coming out game. Coaching staff feels that we will have to score points to win, like the first Philly game and will come out aggressive. Our D shuts them down like everyone lately.

Dallas 31
Denver 13

 

[Dayton Cowboy]

I do remember Jake with the Cards knocking us out of the playoffs.

That said, I think its 31-16.... Broncos

Though I'm hoping for 20-14.. Boys

I think we play Denver tough. My concerns about our team continue to grow however even with the win today. Our offensive line did better running the ball today but was poorer in pass protection. They are inconsistent and Tucker looks downright bad at times. Petitti was clearly shaken up for some time after ther knee to the head and we had no one trusted enough to step in even for a few plays. It seems to me we are one injury away from a disaster on the OL.

I have said it all year...I don't believe in the Broncos yet..

I'm about to find out, first hand, on Thursday how on target I am.

I agree Juke...I still am not convinced that they are all that or that they will beat us..we can beat them and hope we do indeed

 

[Funxva]

Was Tatum Bell injured in the Denver game?

 

[The30YardSlant]

Denver just DISMANTLED the Jets today in every phase of the game. I'm really worried about getting blown out:

Denver: 28
Dallas: 17

I couldn't agree more. I was more nervous about todays "trap" game than Thursdays Denver game. It's our house on Thanksgiving. Thursday.. were the underdog in a game that many feel were not "supposed" to win. Our energy and mentality will be completely different. I expect Dallas to play like they want to make a statement as a legit contender. This is an AFC opponent and we don't really have a great deal of pressure with this one. This defense is way better than even the '03 #1 D. Dallas must find a way to get the timing down on offense.

Dallas 26

Denv 17

I understand he hurt his shoulder....is expected to play Thursday

 

[dbair1967]

Dallas-16
Denver-17

we might get 16, but with the way we're playing Denver is going to get alot mroe than 17

Jake "the Fake" had the game of his freaking life when a concussion-saturated Aikman, gutting it out out behind an absolutely horrid O-line, was on his last legs.

many neglect to notice the reason Plummer built a rep for late-game heroics was his propensity for the bonehead mistake in the games first 55-or-so minutes.

Dallas needs to pick their shots starting early and bring the kitchen sink when they do. Plummer gets happy feet when rattled... and that's when good things will happen for our D.
