Alot of the so called experts have Dallas losing to GreenBay. They are saying that Dallas will have a downer after a tough win against the Eagles.

Some are questioning how good Dallas' defense really is after being torched by nobody WR's.

They also feel that Dallas whom is 0-5 in GreenBay will have a hard time with the croud noise.

They were saying that if they had trouble covering the no-name Eagle WR's, they will be in for a long day with Gennings, Driver and Jones.

Accu-score also has the Cowboys losing.



IMO, the good teams find a way to win back-to-back tough games. I think this could be another shot-out but talent-wise, I think the Cowboys are a little better and deeper. We will see.

This is a GOOD thing, actually.

The less pundits pick us in this game, the better...b/c the pressure will be more off our players and we can be more focused.

All legitimate concerns, but I don't necessarily need the 'experts' to point them out.

An emotional and physical letdown is always a concern...hopefully they can overcome.

A win in GB would say alot more about this team than a loss.

If I recall correctly, this is pretty much the same song and verse as last year.

I seem to remember an overwhelming number of "experts" having us lose to the Giants (both times), Pats, Bears, Green Bay and Carolina.

Then, for some reason, any team that played us close or beat us did so because they were the best team (i.e. Last Skins game even though we were resting a ton of our players) and if we won, the other team "shoulda, woulda , coulda" won.

Hmm i wonder where the fuss is about the packers allowing Det to turn around and make a big comeback on them, and had it not been for Kitna being an idiot could have actually won the game?

who cares. I think we win the game fairly easily, but our D must cover better than they have been.

It makes sense to me. I can see Green Bay being through the roof for this game and kicking our tails.

We just played one of the most emotional games we will ever see. If I was exhausted and lost my voice when I was walking back to my car, I can only imagine how our players felt.

So it makes sense. Its hard to get up to that emotional level week after week. I think the level will be the same this week.

The key to this game is dont get blown out in the first qtr. IF we can stay within two scores we will be fine. We just cant let green bay get way ahead.

I cannot say I fault them for their logic. The Cowboys played a very high emotional game on Monday night. It is going to be tough to win there. Dallas just might be totally spent on emotion.

This happened in 1991. The Cowboys endured a wild Monday Night game against the Commanders. Emmit had his 75-yard run (breaking a kazillion tackles), and Jay Novachek was all over the place. Dallas would lose this game to Washington 33-31.

The following week, the Eagles would come in and destroy the Cowboys 24-0. The Cowboys would only amass 90 yards of total offense as Gang Green would tally 11 sacks! Dallas was flatter than a plate of pee that day.

Now I am not saying that this version of the Cowboys is only going to get 90 yards of offense. However, they may not be as productive as we have seen then the past few weeks.

Five minutes into Sunday Night's game, we should be able to tell if this team is ready to play.

We were allowing over 6 seconds on a bunch of McNabb's long completions. Our corners won't have a chance if that is going to be the case. We need more pressure up front for our guys to be effective.

What else is new. Personally, I like being the underdog. More motivation for the team, not that they should need more, but hey.
