:welcome: And you are correct. I still say the Raiders suck, but the Cowboys have to show up and play their best. IF this finally happens, the Cowboys will blow them out. I keep waiting for a complete game in all three phases. We'll see.

I really don't think they will. Last week there was a lot of talk in the media that we should nonchalantly blow the Skins out. This week there's none of that. If anything, it's more of a tone that the Raiders are dangerous and definitely could beat us if we don't play well.

:welcome: to the Zone!

Of the Raiders' three victories, two of them, Kansas City and Philadelphia, were played against opponents which Dallas also played. The third team was Cincinnati, a team which has swept the Steelers.

Forget Oakland's record. The Cowboys will not be overlooking them.

i posted on some of these things;
Bulletin Board Material, what cable did, Seymour said, what greg ellis is doing;

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is for bulletin board material for cowboys and us fans against the raiders

1. Remember Wade Phillips had a verbal agreement not to play their starters more than the first quarter. Which wade did not play his starters more, but cable head coach of raiders did not keep his word. Even one of their assistants called cable out about it, and you all know what happened.

2. Seymour said, (star DL from patriots now playing for raiders) said that the NFC east division was the easiest softest team in the league and they would be easy for the raiders to beat. Seymour went on to say that the raiders would make the super bowl, etc. And that the Dallas Cowboys would be one of the easiest teams for the raiders to beat. Remember how they stomped on us in the preseason this year and yucked it up to our face after the game etc.

3. Jerry Jones was on thefan 105.3 today and basically said that he is sure that Greg Ellis is telling the coaching staff of the raiders and the players our weaknesses and strengths of our players and how to beat us.

So, fans, what do you have to say to that and get our cowboys ready to beat the raiders.

Frankly I don't know how they could after laying two consecutive eggs on the offensive side of the ball and performing lackluster in the kicking game.

Yeah, I could see that now....

"Umm, yea, that Ware guy never comes out of the game. EVER. I practically had to go Tonya Harding on him, just to get in the game. And that Spencer guy is great big phony! He's not as good as me. HE'S NOT!!"

I really want to say Brookings keeps this team grounded, his leadership on the team and on that D has been outstanding.

There was no such thing as "momentum" in Oakland under Russell. With Gradkowski.. who knows? The team has shown that they have a new fire with the change at QB and the win on Sunday was high-emotion. This might be one of the few cases where the short week/quick turn-around actually helps a team.

We shall see.

This would definitely have me fired up. He's just bitter that he went from the Pats to the Raiders. Pretty big change there.

I would think this team knows the importance of being 8-3 heading into the Thanksgiving Day break regardless of who we are playing

We also know Ellis' weaknesses and will take advantage of them....I hope.

I hope that the Dallas doesn't 'brother-in-law' Greg Ellis. I want some Leonard Davis and Flozell Adams putting their size on him. Run at him, and see how much pressure his legs give him towards 4th quarter.

I'm thinking that Tony Romo will feel very challenged. When he does, he usually prepares thoroughly and sustains focus and technique as well. It's time for the Dallas offense to take some of the black and blue away from the defense and set the Raiders on their heels from the start of the game....and not after halftime when a battle has already been established.
