Gameplan to win

Path to win is to get up a score, and put pressure on this opposing SB champion.

Hold Saquon early and force Hurts to throw the ball. Let some of the young pass rush get home and confident.

Then use Blue and Williams to close out the game. Ceedee should have 10-12 targets and Pickens/Ferg 8 targets split amongst them.

Dak’s a front runner. The Cowboys are a different team anytime they have a lead.

Go down a score and it gets stupid sometimes.

Dak needs to show up this year, I think he is smart enough to understand if they will trade Parsons he is not safe.

The Jones need him now to show they will pay someone top dollar but if the fans sour on him his clock in DAL is ticking - along with the 100M he has in endorsements.
 
The Eagles bring back pretty much the entire Super Bowl offense, although they do have a new OC. Maybe we have a better overall defense than last year, but the Eagles are going to score some, probably at least 24-30 points.

The Eagles defense will be a work in progress. New DE's that have very little experience. Missing Milton WIlliams at DT. New secondary that isn't a likely upgrade.

OUr offense should be able to move the ball but we don't want to get into a shootout. Ball control with play action, long drives are likely to be what we need. Defense has to avoid giving up the big play.
They have a new OC every year. If a new OC is a negative, what is a new OC, a new DC, and a new head coach. Their new OC has been on their coaching staff for years. I guess that still counts as new, sort of.

Run the ball and minimize the amount of time the Eagles offense even gets on the field. But if it’s all about stopping Barkley don’t forget about Hurts. Hurts is younger and nearly as fast as Barkley. And he gets the ball on every play.
 
Our run game will be more effective than 2023, in part because Dak is healthy. In part because of Adam's and Riley.

Early. With little time together we may not see OL gel enough to make a huge difference. Turpin and Blue provide speed we've not had at that spot in a long time.

Im not concerned about offense, CD and Pickens put a ton of pressure on defenses.

The enigma is the D.
 
Seems like a lot of posters forgot that Kansas City's game plan was to take away Barkley and makes Hurts beat them. It didn't work out well for them.

We cannot match their ball control offense. Our best chance is most likely a crazy shootout and hope we get the ball last.

This upcoming QB class is so deep that Dallas doesn’t need to do anything crazy to find a guy who can replace him.

Dak needs to put up or shut up this year.

Throwing for 300 yards & 3 TDs against scrub teams then getting waxed against good teams is no longer going to cut it.
 
Game plan is quite different depend on which version of Dak you get this season. The 2023 version or the 2024 version.
 
Run the ball is our stated philosophy but with our WR combo and their weakened secondary id attack their secondary
 
Bill Parcells used to say there is a path to win every game you just have to find it.

What do you guy think the path is to beating Philly.

To me I think a Bill Parcellls special is needed.

I know our strength is our wideouts & QB but to me Dallas needs to run the ball early & often & control the clock.

Try to keep this game close until the 4th quarter.

If we come out trying to go toe to toe with this team we will get ran off the field. We’re walking into a hornet nest against the Super Bowl champions on opening night.
"Game plan to win." Lmao. Any Philadelphia Eagles team with a pulse is getting an easy dub against this current iteration of The Dallas Cowboys. Hell I bet Phillys backups could beat the Dallas starters.
 
Must admit.. I have absolutely no idea how the run game will go.

Usually you can have a feel for these things.. but I've got nothing.

If it goes well.. god it would be great to see.. if it doesn't hopefully Pickens can make a difference.. and hopefully CD can't be doubled now.
 
In truth we haven't had a guy like Clark that can help in the run game. If he immediately assists there, the game can be closer than most of us are predicting. I'm looking forward to watching him.
 
A successful run game. If the RBs are natural they should find some daylight with the help of the that massive and talented top notch OL draft picks.

That would setup the play action one might think. Keep them honest with F.erguson, then take your shots with Cee Dee and George.

Special team play, meaning Turpin doing his thing at the least with field position, Anger, making crucial punts. Not worried about Aubrey. Although we want 7's not 3's.

Speaking of special teams there's a quirky new format regarding kickoffs; hope the team figure out its advantages. Fifteen yards and we're just about there.

Interesting to see if a "team" leader on defense is in the making.
 
Run the ball in a verity of different way, control the clock and keep Philly off the field and limit the penalties to no more than 5.
 
Run the ball. Fangio is going to drop 7 into coverage all night. Running it down their throat is the answer. And it keeps your D off the field
I get the running the ball thing. I believe that’s true.

But who’s going to “pound the rock” for us Thursday night? I can’t see Javonte Williams and his 3.7 yds per carry or mini-scat back Jaydon Blue as capable of doing that.

It’s one thing to have a plan. But you need the horses to carry it out. Not convinced we do. Maybe I’ll be proven wrong Thursday night.

Slow down the run and force Hurts to beat you.
