From the Patriots Pulpit when playing the Cowboys

[BigD5]

the boys wouldn't with this game with dez and romo much less with weeden will be a total beatdown.

Get out of here with that BS dude! With Romo and Dez we win the game. Period. End of sentence. Without a doubt

Geez some of y'all act like the Patriots are a flawless team that will go undefeated. Newsflash: they won't be undefeated. And if we were healthy we are more talented than they are. That's a fact

 

[Wayne02]

They were pissed off. How long can they remain pissed off? Hey, you may be right. I'm just spit balling reasons to have hope. Thanks for doing your part to crush it. Hope it made your day.

It didn't make my day at all, I just abhor self deception.

 

[windward]

Remember.... David slayed Goliath. I believe!

We see about once a week, a result that makes us shake our heads and say " well we didn't see that one coming".

the game hasn't happened yet. Hoping Dallas can win is not an act of self-deception.

People saying they have no chance are engaging in overt pessimism. Upsets happen every week. Hoping it does in this case is perfectly acceptable. Just let the games play out.

I don't believe it.

It's like you don't watch football. We aren't the favorites and don't deserve to be. But our chance of winning isn't a zero chance proposition.

My chance of winning the lottery isn't a zero chance proposition either.

I didn't say hoping was self deception, I hope they win, but I'm not going to just make up reasons like "The Patriots will take us lightly" as to why they will win.

I'm sure New England being the almighty great championship team they're has never ever been a game they've taken lightly.

I don't know if they have or haven't but if that's what you are clinging to in order to believe in a victory over them then you are fooling yourself.

You're right Dallas stands no chance. New England has such a great defense they're gonna luck us down and Brandon will fold like a cheap chair. Guys like Hardy and, Lee, and McClain are just JAG's who aren't better alternatives than Jeremy Mincey and Damien Wilson and Keith Smith. Tom Brady is just too good. Even if you hit him again and again he's so awesome he can take any hit and deliver the ball every time.

We oughta just conceed.

You and me are just fans, therefore, we can't concede anything. I'll believe you are serious about the Cowboys winning when you post a screen shot of your sports book bet on here.

It's called a prediction, dude.

I don't think it is, dude.

the boys wouldn't with this game with dez and romo much less with weeden will be a total beatdown.

Didn't know the Patriots have the Bears '84 defense.

 

[Macnalty]

Turnovers and pressure up the middle from the defense can tilt the field to a more level playing surface. IMO I expect Hardy to be the leading bezerker of the dline with Sean Lee holding the running backs in check out of the backfield.

 

[xvendettax914]

Lol they called Hayden a menace.

Well they are right. He's a menace.


To fans.

Huh? have you looked at their defense? they wouldnt stand a chance in that side of the ball if we had Dez and Romo

 

[TimHortons]

"Hayden is a complete menace and a 6'4, 305 lbs wrecking ball on the defensive line and the Patriots will have their hands full."

Holy ****

I'd say they would have a legitimate shot with just Romo, let alone Dez playing. I'd still favour the Pats, but with Romo and Dez I could easily see the Cowboys winning. However, I see pretty much no chance of that happening with our injuries. Unless the defense can force 4+ turnovers on the Pats side of the field and we score TDs on all of them, I don't see the offense being able to give the defense any help.
