DallasCowboys.com Writers Share Their Gut Feelings For Cowboys-Eagles

The storyline is set: It’s the Eagles’ DeMarco Murray facing his old Cowboys team. Both sides have downplayed things, though, and for good reason: At its core, Week 2 at Lincoln Financial Field is about two evenly-matched preseason contenders who have split their last four games since 2013.

A win Sunday would give the Cowboys (1-0) an early two-game division lead on the Eagles (0-1), and don’t think for a second that’s lost on Chip Kelly’s team. Here are the gut feelings from staff writers Rob Phillips, Bryan Broaddus, David Helman and Nick Eatman.

Rob Phillips: Last season was last season, Jason Garrett reminds us. But until the Cowboys lose a road game after going 8-for-8 in the 2014 regular season, I’ll keep rolling with them. It won’t be easy. Aside from the challenges of supplementing the pass rush without Randy Gregory and moving the offense without Dez Bryant, the Cowboys are facing an Eagles team that’s got to feel an early-season sense of urgency. Teams that start 0-2 historically have an uphill climb toward playoff contention. My gut feeling is the Cowboys take care of the ball this week – no turnovers after posting a minus-three margin in Week 1. The running backs will put on a show – Joseph Randle and DeMarco Murray will each eclipse the 100-yard mark – but in the end it’ll be Tony Romo leading the Cowboys on a game-winning drive in the final seconds yet again. Cowboys 28, Eagles 27...

My gut feeling is we'll win the game today, mainly because the Eagles have lost 4 of their last 5 games, the Cowboys have won 5 of their last 5 games, and we know what Bill Parcells would say that means.

My gut tells me we will narrowly escape with a win, which means my gut will be in knots all game, having a feeling we will blow the game.
Even knowing Romo can lead them to a victory, that feeling will still be there.

Either we narrowly win or get blown out. It all depends on if our receivers can execute, I'm of the belief that we'll struggle to contain Philly's 3 headed monster.

I think the Eagles have a hard time containing the Cowboys. I could be way off but I like Dunbar and Escobar to make some plays and McFadden gets some big runs. The Eagles are the team with all the pressure because the Cowboys can't beat them without Dez. What a win if they can do it

This reminds me of how Broaddus had a Gut Feeling all last season that Marinelli was going to Tampa this year.

I think the Cowboys drop this one. That seems to be the nature of the NFL and especially the NFC-e.

My gut says we can't slow down their rushing attack, and our offense struggles without Dez. 31-24 Philly.

And please save the "hater" and Eagles fanboy comments.
