For some reason I feel this week's game was harder than next week

[TXCowboyVol]

I feel that today's game, was the harder of the 2 (next week vs Beagles). I feel we handle them much more easily at home with our crowd in a playoff type atmosphere.....agree or disagree??

There's absolutely no home field advantage in that place. You will be able to hear a pin drop by the middle of the first quarter.

I disagree. Philly is a much better team. You're underestimating how bad Washington is this year.

That's not true by the number or by our home-road split.

But keep that untrue narrative going!

Cowboys fans need something to complain about!

The Eagles are going to score more than 23 next week. I hope this offense can keep up.

Inside the Jerry Dome, Cowboys 37 Eagles 31

Yeah, what would I know, I'm never at the stadium or anything.

Arguably our best defensive performance was against these same Foles-led Eagles...on their turf....with no home field crowd advantage....I disagree....this is where Napolean finally implodes....he's due....

 

[Word Mofo]

Next week will be way harder. I'll brace myself for heartbreak

 

[rynochop]

I agree. I think we take care of business next week. Crowd will be into it big time. I'm on the crowd a lot too sometimes like above poster, but that's a playoff game, it'll be loud big time.

I'm just not scared of Napolean Dynamite in whats basically a playoff game.

First and foremost we need to see how the Eagles come out tonight in a meaningless game.


They just lost a game they had no business losing last week to the Vikings. They could also be blowout tonight in a game that means everything to the Bears and nothing for them.


We just came out of an emotional comeback win on the road in the other team's Super Bowl.

Tonight's game is going to set the tone for the rest of this week leading into Sunday. Philly is no world beater themselves and probably are just as concerned that their team has an opportunity to flame out just as dramatically as our team.

 

[Idgit]

I was worried about this game, too. But I'm worried about next week's, too. This was a good win, though.

 

[Sarge]

The Eagles offense is explosive in a variety of ways. McCoy is flatout scary and they are pretty decent at the deep ball. This is not the Washington offense we'll be facing.

Having said that, if the defense plays like they did today, we have a legit shot.

Either way, it will be exciting.

 

[Wayne02]

I just don't believe in Garrett. It was flat out embarrassing when Murray had to go over and talk to him on the sidelines, while Garrett was just standing there shaking his red head. As much as I want these guys to win, I just can't see this team as anything more than an 8-8 team.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

Then you should know the home/road split.

To be honest we've been at rock bottom defensively for quite some time. There is no single player that scares me anymore. The defense scares me as a whole.

I mean we've gone up against Megatron, Manning, Brees, A.D., Jeffries, Garcon, etc.. etc… every week it's a new guy that's scary to the the Cowboy D. From here on out it's going to be somebody..

So Shady will get his… I 'd rather that game go into the trenches though anyway. May play to our advantage if Philly dumps the ball underneath and swings it out to McCoy against our legendary Cover 2 defense.

That underneath route that Garcon was running would be brutal against this defense with the Eagles WR's. I'd welcome McCoy running the ball and killing clock likewise. Would give us a fighting chance to get some lucky stops on defense.

You mean just like the last two years?
