We're probably gonna drop 2-3 more games and they'll most likely be on the road so no it won't be a big deal.

No, but that won't stop people from saying we are.

Green Bay is not a horrible team. Just take a look at their 4 losses. 2 of them came against Minnesota, who I believe could be the best team in the NFC (yes, better than New Orleans), the Bengals, who are 6-2 and the let down game against Tampa Bay.

This game is on the road and it is against a team that is capable of putting points on the board.

I would be disappointed if we lost the game but there is no way I would think this team was a fraud.

That is the main problem with some fans, once a team gets on a winning streak, they expect it to continue forever and for the team to play well every game.

The Cowboys are probably going to lose some more games, it's time to accept it.

Frauds from what? What do "we" claim to be? If we say we are a 6-2 team that can beat most good teams but (like most teams) could trip up very once in while, "we" would not be frauds at all if we lost at GB.

If we say we should beat every single team with a worse record than us regardless of where and when the game is played, we (and the Saints or the Colts if/when they lose) will be "frauds" .

Just framing the question and answer.

The Cowboys are already frauds in the view of some writers at CBS and NBC Sports. Those were some scathing articles that come out yesterday.

The players have to stay focused and play everything game by game. We have to stay strong for the December stretch.

Losing this game would be HUGE..It cannot happen.

I'm sure plenty of people will call us frauds even if we blow out Green Bay.

I think it would be a setback to a certain extent. While I think Dallas will be favored in the game I also think GB is going to put up a good fight. Despite the problems GB is having they are still putting up 26 points a game and are 2nd in the NFL in turn over ratio with +10. Dallas will be playing a team fighting to stay in the playoff race so while I do think we will win I don't see anything easy about this game

Anything can happen but I'm extremely confident in our team and with this matchup. Are the Eagles frauds since they lost to Oakland? Are the Giants frauds since they lost 4 straight? It's a long season.

A loss in Green Bay wouldn't be the end of the world but it would make some media outlets very happy.If Dallas were to lose in Green Bay with a lackluster effort that would really compound any media frenzy.I will say that if this team doesn't show up for this game it will reinforce my belief that Wade is a better coordinator than a head coach.

First let me say that there is noway in hell we should lose to the Pack. They are just terrible, their best win of the season was against the freaking Bears in Lambeau that came down to the wire and they had a +4 TO margin.

They have allowed the most sacks in the NFL and just put another lineman on IR, the freaking winless Bucs wearing their orange pastels had 6 sacks and their pass rush blows. If Wade cant get at least 5, he needs to resign as DC, seriously.

So the question has to be asked, if we somehow lose to this scrub team will we still be considered contenders or will Philly be proclaimed the best in the division and their loss to Dallas was just a fluke???

You know all the guys at ESPN are having wet dreams thinking about us losing to GB so they can start trashing us again. I have never seen so many depressed analysts after we beat Philly, some of them at ESPN looked like they were fixing to cry.

Hopefully we handle our business and this is all a moot point.

Ok this is my first post on this forum... And I was reading this thread over so Ill start with this one.

In my opinion as well as ALOT of people if Dallas loses to Green Bay they will not be considered frauds or chokers!! Believe me in 80 percent of the people over on the Seahawks and Colts forum are actually picking Green Bay to win, that is not because they hate the Cowboys or think they are do for a stinker.... It will be close thats for sure, its just that... Well first of all its in Lambeau which is a very tough place to win. Second Green Bay's playoff chances are pretty much on the line from here on. With how competitve the NFC is now, there is no way Green Bay can afford to lose 2 more games in my opinion. And they know they still have to play Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Chicaco again, and Arizona. So they will play with every ounce of fight in them that they have.

Also this is not a bad team, in fact they are a super good team that loses some close games due to the fact that the O line allows to many sacks and Rodgers sometimes holds on to the ball to many times. But keep in mind this team beat the ever so living crap out of my Colts last year, then took the undefeated Titans at that time into over time. Whenever Green bay loses to a scrub team like Tampa I just brush it off, and think its Green Bay playing down to the competitor... All their games are close, which is a bad thing for good teams like the Cowboys because you know even if the Cowboys win you wont kill Green Bay.

Its going to be a very tough game, and if I have to pick I am going with Green Bay simply because the Pack needs this game extremely bad and its in Lambaeu.... If it was in Cowboy stadium I would pick Dallas.... But Green Bay is very tough to win in.

Its going to be a good game thats for sure, and no matter who loses in this game neither team should be ashamed... Both teams are very talented. The Packers running game is really picking up this year as well. They are a very balanced team except for their o line.

Green Bay will come out firing as their season is slipping away. Rodgers will play well. It will be close. My only prediction - Spencer gets his first 2 sacks of the year.

We're peaking right now, and we've yet to really thump another team. This week is a tough week to expect a blowout, on the road, against a team with some good players in place. I think this is a game where the Pack comes out with its back against the wall and gives us all we can handle for two, two and a half quarters and then we break it open and win by two scores or more at the end.

Their capable of beating us in GB, but their team has significant holes, and I don't think our team is in a place right now where we're going to get bit by letting down. If that happens, it'll be in Dallas against the stupid Redsk*ns.

Greenbay is an extremely talented team starting with the Quarterback. I like there play with there WR's, they can jump and go after the ball.

If I'm correct Charles Woodson is healthy and should be matched up with Roy.

We will not be frauds if we lose to Greenbay, the media certainly does not think that Greenbay is a light weight team. They would have a hard time justifying any diss on Greenbay....

They are a very good team regardless of their record. Like Romo, Rodgers gives them a chance. He cant do everything though. Certainly not while he is getting sacked. So that should be the game plan.

Rodgers gets knocked down and he gets up and still delivers. We cant dismiss his success against us 2 years ago when Favre "got hurt"

I was reading on the packer chatter message board, not posting mind you just reading...about 80 percent of the fans posting therer are expecting a loss.
I didn't really see any trash talk about the boys to speak of either. They expect Rodgers to get sacked alot. They feel the team is comming apart.
They were posting scores like 44-6 Cowboys.
There were very few that said they thought this would be a win because it was a home game.

I think allot of their fans are upset and disappointed and rightfully so but what the fans feel and how the players respond to the challenge they face are very different. Those packer players know their season is hanging in the balance and they can't afford to lose

Those silly Packer fans. Heck, the Cowboys started the season 2-2 and nobody here was panicking or saying the team was coming apart, right?

The Packers have a lot of talent and Lambeau is a tough place to play. It's certainly possible that they could beat the Cowboys Sunday, if a lot of things go their way. I don't expect it, but I won't panic if it happens. The really important thing is not screwing up against Washington and Oakland.

LOL . yeah too some people we are still comming apart:D I keep the faith the whole season long , but that is just me. I know playing at Lambeau is rough , we dont have alot of wins there on our record.

I'm hoping for a win and i'm not expecting us to have a blowout on them either. I agree , we need to keep it together for Washington and Oakland!
Lets go Cowboys!!:starspin
