I know you are joking but did you notice the shot Hurts took at Sirianni about taking the straitjacket off him? Implying Sirianni didn't fully trust him. Perhaps his issue with turnovers may have something to do with it but it was obvious by Hurt's tone he didn't like it.
Yes. After the bye week, Hurts has run or passed for 33 TD's with 3 turnovers. He might be turning into 2022 Hurts again.

Honest answer: CeeDee Lamb (imagine three wide sets with him, AJ Brown, and Davontae Smith), Tyler Smith, Micah Parsons, a healthy Trevon Diggs, and DaRon Bland.

And Dak vs. Hurts to me is a wash. I think if you put Dak in that offense, with that line and running game, and the Eagles would still be in the Super Bowl.

(runs before the anti-Dak crowd chases me out of here with pitchforks)
Damn, Cee Dee with AJ Brown, Smith, Goedart, Barkley, and that o-line. I think Dak might make it to the Super Bowl if he had that team.

This thread just shows how short sighted so many fans are.
The same eagles defense that was near the bottom of the league a season ago when they all crapped the bed and went through 2 def cord mid season is now so amazing the only guy who could start is Micah... Isn't it crazy what coaching and scheme can do for a team?

Let's take our players right after coming off a god awful season and compare those to the eagles players heading into the SB.
Let's ignore the entire body of work of both teams and players over the last few years.

Oh well. Typical Cowboys fan behavior.

Fun Fact:

Only ONE former Dallas Cowboys player will be in the Super Bowl this year (as a player): KC TE Peyton Hendershot

The fact remains that they have way more talent on both sides of the balls than we do.

As they did last year also.
Everyone looks better when they are put in a winning scheme.
We can't know from our couches which players are truly better in most cases. Some are obvious of course but most are not. Take CB's. Most here have said the eagles are clearly superior at CB. Yet this was one of their worst position groups on their team and all they added was a average rookie CB to the mix... Scheme is everything.

Both of the Eagles' CB draft picks, Mitchell and DeJean are candidates for DROY, so maybe they aren't so "average"? You watch Mitchell cover and he looks confident, you watch DeJean tackle and realize he doesn't shy away from contact like many a DB, including some on the Dallas roster. It's not all about Fangio's scheme. They drafted well over time, and players in their 2nd and 3rd years have become solid players (like Davis) or stars (like Jalen Carter).

Add Nakobe Dean, Nolan Smith, and Cam Jurden to your great draft pick list

@Scottishcowboy asks a question on another thread....how many Cowboys would start on the Eagles? Take out special teams and I would say two, Micah and Ceedee. Doesnt that show how far away we are from competing with the Eagles? How many do you say?
Tyler Smith would possibly, they have some big OL guys both guards are over 350 easily
