Even with cliched spot, Eagles game looms larger

[maryquality]

Hope they win but we are locked into the 5 seed. Saturday is about momentum and pride.

Sometimes I wonder if they actually have some pride. I see some players have it, but most look like they're just going through the motions. At least that's what I saw yesterday. I'm hoping they can muster up some of it playing egals.

....when the boat really tumbles, they begin jumping. DQ called a BAD game yesterday.

THey were out of position, most of the time. I'm losing faith in this guy>>>>>>>>quick.

I think being third best might be a stretch right now.

Not at all lol. We blew out the Vikings who are the only other team to have a reasonable argument. Can’t get any better than a head to head win.

Didn’t we just come off of a 3 game win streak? I know the defense was bad yesterday but let’s not act like a loss now plummets us to the bottom of the conference. Minnesota’s defense is still terrible as well.

.......On somewhat of short week. Dallas will need to pull out all the trinkets and show up.

The game is about who wears the pants in the division and possibly the conference.

Many have stated this before on these boards. If you cant beat the best, no business being in post season.

..as homer, I hope to see it get done. ...What say you?

This game is meaningless for both teams. I bet neither team shows much because we could actually meet again in the divisional round. Stat padding game for both quarterbacks.

....I hear ya, but its only YOUR perspective.

How am I wrong?

I think this game means very little to the Cowboys. The 5-7 seed are all the same, we have to beat the good teams on the road in some order so I'd focus on getting everyone as healthy as possible the rest of the year.

It actually doesn't mean much at all for the Cowboys.

2007 Cowboy vs Giants regular season games meant NOTHING....we made their defense look silly both games....you know the rest.

Eh...

Rams lost twice to the 49ers last year before beating them in the playoffs.

In fact, I'd rather lose this game if my focus was winning in Philly in the playoffs. It takes the revenge factor out of it. Let them think it will be another smooth victory.

This is a waste of time though. This team isn't winning anything. They are as fake as their QB.

Agree 100%....been thinking that for a few weeks now.

Disagree. The less we show Philly, the better b/c we will likely have to go through them to get to the super bowl. I'd rather us rest guys and work on finding some CBs.

I disagree personally, while in theory it doesn’t mean much in terms of standings and seeding - it could mean a lot to the locker room to win against the best team in the conference. Moral with all the injuries and the lackluster d could be down a bit and if they could get a good win against a quality opponent it could have residual effects over the next month.

lots of could there I know but I still think it’s a big game

..valid point, mate. Similar to what another posted. I could go both ways.

But this team, I feel relies on W's for momentum. A win Sat, could keep them together for remainder of season. Even if decided to rest players from there on.

...its an opinion, that's all.

....that's where I am mentally on this. A win VS good team, bodes well going further.

Or the eagles. It is a rivalry game though, and the playoffs are a month away… Plus you want to gain some momentum for a possible divisional round match up. I think both teams will be going hard for this one
