What a inept organization. All they had to do was take Wentz and 1. We wouldn't have to see him 2x a year 2. By all appearances they would have had a franchise QB. I hope we beat the living snot out of them. Bums.

I get what you are saying specifically about Cleveland, but every week is the same predictions no matter the team. You get a very small number of people predicting a blow out or comfortable win, never a blow out loss, and a slew of "don't sleep on them, they could be dangerous, it's going to be a close game."

It's the same thing with preseason record predictions, 95% of the predictions are 9-7 to 10-6. You can pretty much copy and paste the same comments every game, and every off season.

Well, I thought we were about to blow out the Eagles, so what do I know.

That said, my gut is really bad when it comes to predicting blowouts, so I don't trust myself at all. I know most of the matchups favor us in this one, by a fair amount. I struggle with CLE having two big, talented WRs with us out. Ordinarily this week, I'd want Jones on Pryor, but they also have Barnidge and Coleman. I like their skill players.

One thing I do like a lot for us is Elliott going back to Ohio against a bad run defense, though. This ought to be a statement game for him. If it is, it should be a fun day.

Blowouts tend to only happen when one team is really playing poorly and the other team is playing great. Looking at most of the Cleveland game they have been able to keep games close. I expect Dallas to go out and perform well and win this game, I would avoid saying they will blow the browns out

You aren't alone. I predicted we would beat the Eagles 38-10. I also predicted us to go 13-3 this year before Romo went down, so we will see if that comes true too.

I feel like you are on to something with Cleveland offensively. I just don't think they will be able to slow are offense down at all. They are really bad defensively. Wouldn't surprise me if it was a high scoring game, yet a double digit win like 38-27.

Dont forget, Cleveland passed on Dak 8 times. Not that he cares, but he may have a little "see what your missing" in him Sunday.

Dak collecting the souls of other rookie quarterbacks...

There can only be one.

Makes sense. 0-8 and not going anywhere. They need to find out if they have a keeper at QB or if they need to draft one next year.

Do they have their own Dak or are they going to roll for next year's Jared Goff ???

Pryor just looks the part.






What a beast this guy could be.



Pryor was very impressive vs Norman, with a rookie QB no less. He's an insane athlete considering he's basically learning the WR position on the fly while competing at the highest level. It stinks for him that he will be 28 before the 2017 season, which I believe may limit what type of deal he'll get as a free agent.

As for Kessler. He looks very competent at the helm. To be quite honest, this kid worries me more than Wentz.

That's better for the Cowboys. McCown is a lot better then Kessler to me. Good news with Mo and Church being out

I think Browns are going to try to give us a dose of our own medicine. They will try to pound it with Crowell to protect their young QB, and use play action to his benefit. Could be long ugly low scoring game.
