OK, let's get the ball rolling.
1. First the Deadskins were dismantled by the Steelers.
2. Second the Deadskins were run over by the steelers.
3. Third the Steeler QB shredded the Deadskin secondary.
4. Let's assume that the Cowboys learned something about their self's and week one faults and can now run and throw against the Deadskins this week.

PS
After watching the Deadskins game, I have us at 55% chance of winning this game. Depends on the defense.:omg:

1. Were not as good as the Steelers, especially coaching.
2. Its possible
3. They worked on their # 2 corner and hardly tested Norman. Don't look for us to be so smart.
4. If we haven't learned that by now why expect it now.

50/50 chance we win. Look for another close one. I don't see anything changing in our lack of a pass rush or lack of coverage.

Who is stopping Jordan Reed, I know there is a B. Jones thread going on, but this is a game for him to step up.

They are also playing a 3 TE set with Jordan Reed, Vernon Davis & Niles Paul, that they can pass or run out of so LB's and S's are going to need to step up.

I do think their RB is trash though.

Yes it's dead skins week! Hate that team! Would love to see this team role over them like nobody's business and serve notice to the nfl the boys are back. Unfortunately I changed my first four game predictions when Romo went down and this will be another loss. The vanilla coaching, record without Romo, and players not stepping up in his absence just speak volumes to me. I will be cheering I want them to win it is just very hard to not accept the real facts at hand. Prove me wrong Cowboys prove me wrong!

You and I are on the same page. Haven't seen anything from this team that says it can win without Romo. 27-13 Commanders.

I hope the staff will open up the playbook and let Dak do a few of the things he was comfortable with in college. It will help us this game and give future opponents more to prepare for.

This is a great opportunity to be creative. Regardless, I think Zeke and the offense bounces back and we win.

I'd like to see Irving start and play much more. Both Crawfords less and Hichens much less. Get Jones on Reed as much as possible.

The problem is you just never know with the Cowboys. One thing or another they seem to find ways to lose. Garretts boring play not to lose game plans. How can we ever hope that changes? Been watching it for as long as I can remember. And the one thing we were all hanging our hats on got shut down last week in the run game. Dak is a great young rookie, but you always know that one game is going to come up where he throws 3 picks and we lose. Hard to get up for this team right now. Especially after last week. And the big issue for me is that Washington lost last week. Got embarrassed. And they got run over. So they will have something to prove.

And the Steelers offense is about as good as it gets. And they actually move around their pro bowl receiver where we keep ours in one spot. He will covered by Gordon all day long.

A QB like Ben and a WR like Brown will definitely make you look bad. Don't think the deadskins are as bad as the Steelers made them look.

A divisional game at their house, as always will be a close game.
It will be a much different game. We must be able to run ball and put it in the end zone rather than kicking fg

The Skins have always been (and likely still are) super stoked about beating Dallas. I doubt they'll make it easy for us next Sunday.

The Cowboys had better bring their "A" game with them when noontime arrives. I'm believing both teams will be anticipating a war.

1 problem is the Cowboys aren't close to the steelers in being a force!

After this game we will be one week closer to getting Tony back.
But the down side is, we still have the same defense for the next 3 games. And even then, those returning players, how much will they help.

This is not a knock on Dak. It is just how the game is called with / without Tony.

both teams should be pretty desperate. Hard to imagine the line and the running game struggling two weeks in a row.

After Norman taunting Dez last year I am sure Dez wants to really have a big game.

I don't think Dallas will have a problem handling Washington's pass rush. Kerrigan is a great player but I think he is the kind of player free can handle. Free struggles with the athletes who can do all kinds of stuff, I think he can handle kerrigan. If smith is healthy the other side shouldn't even be noticed.

unfortunately the same can be said of Washington's line vs our rush, I don't think they will have any problem shutting it down. We are going to get spread out and will need tipped balls or forced fumbles to keep this thing close and try to win late.

I expect to see the Commanders play man to man and I expect Dak to throw Zeke the ball this week, it was a crime he wasn't given the ball in space last week. I bet he makes a big play in the passing game.

I still don't think we win but I don't think we will have the same problems as last week, this week the defense might get shown to be a real problem.

I think they win and they have to. If they start the season 0-2, Here we go again. It's 2015 all over again. But they are a better team on the road and I think the O-Line plays like the line that gets called the best in the NFL. Zeke will be better and we've been talking about it on here since Sunday, Dez gets involved early and a lot. It would be nice to see a couple of deep passes early in the game. Go for it, Even if they both are incomplete. Attack on offense. Use every weapon you have. I could see the defense getting a couple of interceptions. Cousins is good for that. I'm being a total homer here. Cowboys win 37-20.
