I certainly hope you are right. They are gonna need him.

Sheepherder---- just heard Mike Fisher report from news he heard from Glazier who is in good with both Jones's and Will McClay and medical staff....Dak said trying those Michael Jordan other shoes he heard a pop

in his foot.....that happens with us if there are nitrogen bubbles and means nothing....but i think its a mental game against Bucs just to mess with them maybe to get them to get excited and not play in their lanes at

at times....and Dak runs the ball with authority and knocks em down and they thought maybe he had bad ankle?......its all a psycological game now that game is hours away...Go-Cowboys i hope we are +10

and we put beatdown and win outright....but when you are 64 and watch cowboys over 50 years you are nothing but a total Homer....never ever go against Cowboys even if all the players had their grandmothers

play in their sted....that is just the disease of Homerism.....but i know they will win tonight outright and some Bucs more than bruised ego

How does anyone say this? We watched this offense with more talent get bogged down none of us has seen it really overcome its struggles down the stretch.

mr charon---we watched last year when we had Cooper and CeeDee and that real good RT we let go cause Jones's dont like him.....we watched supposed superior offensive team totally bog down many times

i will say we had 3 # 1 receivers in Cooper and CeeDee and Gallup and then Shultz and one of my favorite RB's in the league Tony Pollard who will now also be a receiver....our O line on paper better last year

and we bogged down bad.....Nope....i will take this years version of Dallas Cowboys over last year....yes supposedly very suspicious O line and receivers?....Tyler played tackle in college so 2 weeks is not like

putting a player at a position he has never played.....and i heard McGovern who was not good at LG last year is improved this year....and look at Cincy last year one of the worst O lines in the league and super

bowl ?......i love our chances to put beatdown on Bucs total Plat guarantee....but must qualify everything i am total Cowboy Homer

Dear fellow zoners----i did not call anyone freaks this time....i think we have the horses on offense

to not just be competitive but beat Bucs.....we have CeeDee....Noah Brown....Shultz and Pollard

as receivers....and Zeke and Pollard as RB's and Dak as QB and Moore will scheme to help

left side.....and not even talking about Defense....our interior D-men have been licking their chops

for Bucs interior O-line....yes i know vice a versa....but we are better....Brady does not run away

from anyone and how you rattle him is coming straight up the middle so beastly inteiror D-men

and a lot of Parsons in A-gap....just watched Bills dismantle LA rams....i guess switching Von Miller

from LA to Buffalo was the trick...what you all think?.....is GORICO A BIG HOMER???

I'm anxious to see how well that defense does against other teams,,,, them kicking butt practicing against our crappy OL might have people overestimating them...

EIG--- i use to watch Cowboys in camp and think OH man this is our year.....and forgot 31 other teams doing same thing....and we may have a suspictious O Line and 2nd youngest team in NFL...but the 1992

Cowboys NFL youngest and pundits said were still at least a year off....and they went on a Crushing Spree to win SB 27....i realize no one is saying that about us 2022....but tell me last season did you have

Cincy any where on your radar for SB?.....and they had one of leagues worst O lines???....Nawww i dont buy the Negative Nancy's view of Cowboys...in fact Brady over 20 year career never has lost to the

Cowboys.....all good things eventually come to an end and Brady's perfect record against Cowboys Tonight Ends

If they use Pollard correctly, we may be ok. We're WAY worse at WR than last year. WR1 is a wash (Cooper vs. Lamb) but WR2 went from CD to Gallup. That's a massive drop off. Tyron for a rookie at LT is a massive drop off.

We may buck the trend but historically turnovers return to the mean. Without those turnovers, our defense is pretty pedestrian. I still don't believe the middle is ready to stop the run. Hope I'm wrong.

I mean..............Im going to assume your joking around right? I dont even know how to respond to that if your serious.

What have you seen in the past to make you think the Cowboys are prepared to help a suspect oline?

This will be an interesting game. Tampa has some of the same Oline issues we do. I would take the under and its going to be decided by a few penalties, turnover, big play, a couple plays.

mr Roy--- keeping Zeke in during passing plays...20 personnel....run straight at them on left side?....we may be at this time much better passing team in 21 personnel?....our TE's can block and

catch....short passes....screens.....quick slants....those are only a "few" ways to help suspect O line....not kidding Roy i would take 2022-23 version over 2021-22 version.....we had very good line

and best receivers in league overall and good TE's and very good RB's and very very good QB....and we bogged down last year i watched it....yes Dak was hurt more than he let on but not where

our whole offense seems to stall......i will take this years defense and this years O line and offense over last years.......i still cannot watch on gamepass the wild card game last year......if we had

played to our potential we were close to SB considering how close SF got.....well it starts tonight with a big W at AT&T and then another W next week against Cincy

Charon---i personally talkled about last years offense bogging down.....i am right with you 100% this years team no one can say its ready to bog down in fact i will take this years cowboys over last years

did anyone have Cincy on their radar last year going and almost winning SB?.......how does Bryon Broaddus say it?....the NFL is a crazy lady?...no that is not it?

theHerd----i hear you and on paper you might be right....but i believe Pollard will run more and be a receiver a lot more too....if you consider Ceedee and Noah Brown Dennis Houston UDFA receiver who displaced or

overtook our 3rd rd pick at the moment....and the great Drew Pearson was UDFA back in 70's and early 80's.....consider Shultz and Jake Ferguson TE's? and look out for Peyton Hendershot he may be better

than both of them?....we have a good talented receiving group that will only get a lot better when Gallup and the guy from Pitt return and dont forget our little firecracker...five foot seven inch 150 pounds

soaking wet returner who will also be used in receiving packages....i realize on paper we are making Cowboy Nation very very nervous.....but we are better than last year...we had 3 #1 receivers too many

cooks in kitchen....we have scary TE group....totaly scary RB group....little tiny bit scary O line group.....no one knows how off the charts our Defense might be?.....and i also believe Moore will and has

installed packages to help young O line...lots of 20 or 21 personnel....if we start 2-0 will you feel any better?...because i have strong sense we will

TheHerd---Wow and you very well maybe a lot smarter than me....but i think the opposite about our interior D line....we have some beasts.....our group of pass rushers are better than last year regardless if we

lost Randy Gregory ....and our linebacking crew will be scary......our interior D-line has greatly improved and when you never know when the human nuclear missle comes through "A" gap.....Brady has some

surprises tonight...because he has never done well when rushed up the middle....we have rushman #1 techs along with double teamer eaters....you think our DC will let Brady be comfortable up the middle

tonight?...No Way.....sacks , fumbles, INT's the cowboys have tonight...i mean Cowboy defense

You may very well be right about some of this, but we have to stop the run first.We're not strong at C and LG, so tonight we have to stop Fournette. I think we're similar at pass rushing, and if Micah continues his progress he's obviously generational.

Anything can happen tonight. I’m not making any predictions. There are lots of question marks but lots of potential too. The OL could be a complete disaster at worst and solid at best. Same with the receiving corps. Despite being down Gallup, a strong performance from CeeDee, the TE duo and Pollard can make up for that. Or they could be terrible. A terrible OL won’t do them any favors. The running game could be great at best and solid at worst. Really depends on how game plan. And the defense can be elite at best and above average at worst. I’m still not sold they’re elite but I wouldn’t be surprised if they terrorize a depleted Bucs’ OL.

Noah Brown ? (sigh) i got spoiled last year having the front 3 hands on ( coop, lamb, gallup) ..and then the luxury of having a Cedrick Wilson emerge

But in one offseason, we're down to mere 7-8 yard Noah Brown as the No.2 WR ?

Me thinks many were so hyped and depending on the hype of rookie Jalen Tolbert per draft and minicamps that
we thought and assumed he'd hit the ground running, as one more polished and NFL ready beyond his years.

Such is apparently not the case. In fact i don't even hear his name come up at this time close to reg season.
In the short term, and possibly longer term, I could see Turpin being the #2 receiver in terms of targets and production.

We had 1 #1 and a guy they think they can feature but wouldnt last year. Gallup isnt a #1 either. None of the guys left have proven they can beat the focus of a defense and part of this is playcalling. Its all wishful thinking. The difference between dallas and cincy is the qb, but that woukd require much more explanation abd deserves its own thread. Hope im wrong, hope KM actually features CD and he takes off. But i doubt it. This isnt year 1, hell get catches and numbers but i think they struggle alot.

Unfortunately, the Boys have a ten-toe sloth winging it at QB and that isn't going to get the job done!
