Option A:

Win 60% of the time against a doormat in your own division.
Have 5 Legit Lombardi instead of 1 legit one and 2 asterick ones.
Be America's Team

Option B:

Only idiot Commanders fans would run their mouth about Option B.

Seeing that both teams are 5-5 in the last 10 games, I got no clue what you are talking about.

Since 1997, the record is: 19-7 in favor of the Cowboys, including winning 14 out of 15 at point. That means we won about 68% of the last 28 games.

That is not a rivalry. That's an ***-whooping. You won't find any team any where that has a better record against an opponent over a 28 game period.

Again, the Commanders are the Cowboys doormat.

Like I said, only an idiot Skins fan would be dumb enough to talk about Option B. Only a moron would be the obvious loser in an argument but still try to act like there is any sort of equivalence between the two.

 

[CowboyMcCoy]

Because re-building ALWAYS requires a team to go 1-15

Try again. It requires that has something to do with youth. Your excuse for a team doesn't have that. Your team is in throw **** against the wall to see if something sticks mode.

In 2010 You. Will. Suck. as well.

 

[28 Joker]

Absolutley not. For the sake of discussion and this thread, I find it hilarious

The 2009 Commanders offense was one of the top 5 worst in the 80+ year history of the NFL.

Despite that awful offense, our D managed to hold your amazing offense to 24 points in 2 games.

So the under estimation in this thread gives me a good chuckle

I'm not underestimating the Commanders this year. I said that yall would make the playoffs. Haynesworth is making me change my mind, though. McNabb is Eli's and Coughlin's daddy. That is why I picked them. I think your defense, coach, and QB give you hope for sure.


The Cowboys are going to score more TDs this year, I think.

Yall have a big problem coming to town in week one.

Felix Jones
Dez Bryant
Kevin Ogletree

These three players are going to make the Dallas offense faster, bigger, stronger, and better.

Felix Jones is going to go off.

 

[cobra]

No they won't.

This is just another example of the "off-season champs" crap that they run out every year only to totally suck when the season begins. This year will not be any different. They are an 8-8 team, tops.

Coach Shan came in and looked at their pathetic excuse for a roster--the same pathetic players that idiot Commanders fans have been talking up as Super Bowl contenders the last few years--and decided they would be better off with washed up formerly-good players than with never-will-be-good players.

Every year it is the same nonsense from the Skins ("look at all the players we got; look at our new coaches") and the same results (various levels of ****tiness).

Awesome post, dead on point...

 

[BourbonBalz]

Two adjectives come to mind for almost all Cowboy-Commander games over the past 10 years: ugly and unpredictable.

I just want to win. 5-3 final score would work for me.

It is useless to try to convince me that the Commanders might be a 6-10 team. I'm not a believer in Commander playoff hopes, but that's hardly the point. The best team often loses in the history of this rivalry.

Not me. I want to destroy the Foreskins and set the tone for the entire season.

Your D is good, but you will be playing a new scheme and your "star" defensive player is and will probably cause some locker room problems. On offense, you have a good but aging QB, NO receivers, old running backs, and a terrible offensive line. The Skins MIGHT hold our offense in check to some extent, but our D will kill your offense.

 

[BourbonBalz]

Why are people thinking the Skins will make the playoffs? I dont' think they'll sniff the playoffs. They were TERRIBLE last year and what makes anyone think they'll improve enough to make the playoffs? Good D, terrible O. Yea, they've got a new QB, but he's not what he once was and he's always been a choker. No receivers, especially receivers that strike fear into defenses. Old RBs that are past their prime and a poor O line with a rookie at LT. How does all that equal a playoff appearance? Just don't get it.

You could be right, Cobra. In fact, the odds are probably in your favor.

However, the Cowboys can't overlook them. However, I don't the the Cowboys will, because they have lived in the history of this game. They know what a huge physical battle the game brings.

It is a huge rivalry.

I can still see Santana Moss getting something deep, cheap in 2005, twice. The second game up there was ugly that year. They swept us, and that cost us a playoff spot. The Cowboys split with them in 2006, but should have swept them. They were so lucky in game two. Tony Romo had them beat. 2007 saw Terence Newman save the Cowboys' butt in Dallas. The second 2007 game didn't mean anything to Dallas, but Washington needed it and got it. The Commanders beat the Cowboys in 2008. at home. Then, the Cowboys took TNEW up there and paid them back 14-10. Last year, the Cowboys beat them 7-6 in Dallas and needed their kicker to miss a couple of FGs, but miss them he did. The "Boys did get the sweep.

Trust me. It's a rivalry game.

Having said that, I can't wait for the game. The Cowboys are going to dismantle the Commanders.

Marion Barber will be going down hill in the 4th quarter, and it will be decided when the Cowboys turn to him.

Again, you have a great chance to be right, especially if Haynesworth is shipped out.

If he is traded, I don't like their chances at all.

If their defense maintains their level of play, they have some weapons on offense. They will rush the ball, even if it doesn't work. That will eliminate some turnovers and play to their defense. Moss is still there, and he has to be respected. They have a good TE and a good H-back/TE. McNabb gives them a proven winning QB, Micheal Jackson dance or not, big ego or not. He must be respected. If they can shorten the game and get into the 4th quarter, they have a proven QB now. Their "old" running backs are accomplished, and they are probably hoping to catch lightning in a bottle, like an O.J. Anderson (Giants 1990). The Giants' defense may be vulnerable, and I like McNabb against his old team due to the revenge factor.

The Giants defense was absolutely roasted last year, and their offensive line didn't run the ball very well, either. Plus, McNabb has owned the Giants. He's their daddy. The Eagles are going with a QB who has started two games in the NFL, and they have some secondary issues for sure. Again, I don't think the Eagles are going to just hand an accomplished QB to a divisional rival and just skate away nice and happy. They are going to pay.

If Washington can get to second place in the division, they have a chance to make the playoffs, imo.

However, if Haynesworth is traded, I think they are in big, big trouble. I don't like them if he is traded.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

The Commanders haha. They are so irrelevant. And their fans are stupid.

 

[BourbonBalz]

I see the Foreskins at 6-10 or 7-9. 8-8 would be a good season for them. Their offense is terrible and I don't think changing coaching staffs and bring in McNubb will make them a contender. Not to mention, their biggest "star" isn't happy about changing defensive schemes. Trouble in DC.

 

[McNadds]

we will now. now i see the big picture

 

[laythewood28]

The Skins always seem to play us tough. I expect a game. It's foolish to underestimate your opponent.

Finally someone with some sense. They are at home, have a new QB, Santana usually does well against Newman and their defense has played us well the last few years so steamrolling them isn't going to happen. Do we win, sure we are a better team on paper, but it isn't a cake walk. They have 2 tight ends that can have a good day against us as well as a decent running came to keep the game close. Closer game them a lot of you might expect. Wouldn't surprise me if it comes down to buehlar's (sp?) leg.

 

[bbgun]

You bumped up a thread that'd been dead for a month? Lame.

 

[skinsscalper]

Make no mistake about it, the Foreskins are preparing for Dallas as we speak. We are preparing for a season, the Skins are preparing for week one. Shanahan knows how huge a week one win against Dallas will be if he can pull it off and he's going to sell out To make it happen. Guaranteed.

I will almost guarantee you that there's a drill, play running session, or scenario practiced EVERYDAY in training camp that has something to do DIRECTLY with the Dallas Cowboys.

I think we win the game, but it's going to be a battle. I also think that a loss for us is much easier to get past than it will be for the Foreskins. They'll know that they invested weeks in getting this win and if it crumbles in front of their faces it could take a bit of time to recover.

Can't wait to stomp their *****.
