What’s left on the McCarthy next dice roll menu? Fake FG, onside kick on the opening KO, Dak lines up as a receiver in a wildcat? Never punting like that HS Coach? That would all be fun. Lol!

That said, I think we’re going to need 35-40 to win.
I think he's gone overboard. He was at home all last season and one of his daughters said to him "Daddy, you are so boring and wear those drab clothes, you need to change your image". He thought about it and went nuts.

Wouldn't surprise me if when he shakes Carroll's hand Carroll jumps from the hand buzzer and McC jerks down Carroll's mask and squirts him in the face with his lapel flower. The ST kick off team all come and pile out of a clown car at midfield. We look over and Moore is dressed as Harpo with McC holding his knee with a Groucho mask on.

Bullet, this ain't football, this is funball.

This team has to score between 30 and 35 every game. Our D is not good enough or experienced enough, at this point, to rely on them to hold NFL teams down to under 30 every week.

I'll just be happy if Dallas doesn't embarrass themselves. I'm never happy with a loss, but I'm not expecting Dallas to win. I'm not there yet with this team.
I am not disappointed with any loss as long as it's to a better team or one that played better. That Rams loss didn't bother me at all and I picked the Cowboys to win.

I actually think this will more of a lower scouring game. I think the game plan for Dallas will include a bunch of running the ball and eating up time to limit possessions by Seattle. We can't get into a shoot out, Wilson is playing the best football of his career and that is saying something. I think this game comes down to TOP and red zone effectiveness. Got to keep them out of the end zone. I will go with 24 points for the win.

Agree, the longer Wilson is on the sidelines the better for us. No shootout!

This, and SG is suppose to be the best. He was so frustrated he was wanting to fight.
Trying to handle Metcalf can do that to any DB. I am not sure I've seen anything like him in the NFL before. I've seen athleticism, size, speed and strength but not all in the same guy. 6'4" 220 4.35 and a 40 vertical is like something out of a lab.

The forecast for Seattle on Sunday is for AM showers. Since the game is at 3:25 Central, the weather should be decent.

I think the Cowboys will need that in the first half.

Money line: Seahawks -223 (bet $223 to win $100) / Cowboys +190 (bet $100 to win $190) | Bet now
  • Against the spread: Seahawks -4.5, -110 (bet $110 to win $100) / Cowboys +4.5, -110 (bet $110 to win $100) | Bet now
  • Total: 55.5, Over -110 (bet $110 to win $100) / Under -110 (bet $110 to win $100) | Bet now
New to NFL betting?

At -223 odds, the Seahawks have an implied 69.04% chance of beating Dallas in Week 3, or 100/223 fractional odds. Seattle must win by five points or more for the Seahawks’ -4.5 (-110) ATS ticket to cash.

Disagree.

Slowing down our offense is a win for them. They won't be trying to slow down theirs.

Go attack.

We are better when we attack. When we try to play that brand of football we fizzle out quick and struggle to score.

You invested in a high power offense now go be high power.

Imagine Baltimore, KC, or some other team thinking this way? Break away from the Garrett train of thought and go play basketball on grass like it's meant to be played in 2020.

35-38 points.

Seattle will get their points with Wilson back there. Unfortunate injuries suffered by key defensive personnel should allow Dallas to score quite a few points.

I actually like Dallas in this one.

Respect that, let's score then.

The longer we can keep Wilson off the field, the better.

Over/ Under is 56 points. Highest in the league this week. There are 4 games with O/U over 50.

Dallas only puts up about 17 a game to winning record teams .

Dallas will need another 40 at least. Can’t see it happening. Take Hawks and give up the 4 points.

...all I know, we need luck, ball security and commit less bonehead mistakes. I see this game as a draw. Hoping Dallas can pull it out.
