I'm really nervous about this game . . . . It's

[Woods]

just that we SHOULD win this game. We SHOULD start off the season 2-0.

When was the last time that happened?

We SHOULD be pumped up as it's our first home game, with the new inductees, etc.

BP teams are typically well prepared, but I just hope we aren't overly confident going into this game. Also, let's remember that our defense is still relatively young and still learning on the run.

This is going to be a tough win. Last year we weren't consistent at all. Let's hope this year our consistency has also improved.

I've got my fingers crossed . . . .

not to worry, we own their candy a$$es.

This game has an odd feel to it, almost like a playoff game or a super bowl.

 

[VACowboy]

Feels like a trap to me.

I posted a few days ago if this was a "must win" game because it almost has that feel to it. I know it isn't, but for some reason I don't want to stop owning the skins. :skins:

We're going to be beaten like drum. By halftime we'll be running away like little girls.

Yhea, I feel the same thing.

I guess both teams want to show that this year is "different".

Plsu, I think the Skins are just fed up of losing to us year in and year out.

 

[lyrclcipha12]

the thing that scares me is...we're supposed to win the next three games probably...wash, sf, and oak...now is there any conceivable way we start the season 4-0? yeah right...so each one of these should wins are gunna have me scared...

This game will go a long way toward establishing RESPECT for the Cowboys. If they win this game, I think they will be considered the Cinderella team this year.

As Bledsoe says, "we live for these games". Should be fun!!

 

[Wood]

game is sandwiched in between an emotional victory and the Eagles next week. Dallas needs to be very careful no to let this one get away.

 

[wrnboysfan]

This gme will be a close low scoring game, but like some of you i do have that feeling that something might go wrong. Hopefully JJ and BP will bail us out.

 

[Canadian BoyzFan]

Not so sure on Oakland.........but 3-0 would be very possible with a win tonight.
I really like our chances to win 9 or 10 this year.

9 wins=Wildcard IMO.
NFC North and West look awful. Would love to get the 5 seed this year. Probably would face the worst Div Winner (NFC North). I like our chances.

i don't know about the raiders game. we will be playing them away and although they are 0-2 they have played everyone close. I don't think we should win that game, but Wash and SF should be wins.

Great minds think alike!

You and I know it. lol

We play the 49ers next week not the eagles

Raiders have quite a few weakness to contend with, namely a secondary that can't cover. I don’t want to get ahead of myself we have the skins tonight and really the only game I’m focused on.

 

[Richmond Cowboy]

Hope the players don't have the cold sweaty palms I've had all day. I'm anticipating this one big time.

 

[bobtheflob]

The thing is this year we're a borderline playoff team. The end of our schedule is hard enough that we have to do really well right now to have a chance. I'm worried because we have more to lose than just getting beat by a rival on national tv.

 

[calico]

You guys are nervous because this is a rivalry game following a game where Dallas played very well and expectations are high right now. Add to that the ROH induction making tonight a special game for the season.

The last thing you want is to see the skins come in here and ruin the night with a victory. We have a chance to start out 3-0 and this is one game that can turn momentum.

The Cowboys will be ready. Bledsoe speaking about the skins D makes me feel better that they know what they are up against.

This time we have a healthy team facing it and not a 41 year old qb and with green receivers.
