Interesting the # that are picking Dallas. I haven’t decided which way to go. I believe the defense will hold Cincy below their average. I just don’t have warm and fuzzies the offense can appreciably score more than its average. Depending on a ST score and/or a defensive score is tough odds.
I'm on the fence as well but you do realize this is a team with the same record we have... Wildly inconsistent and I realize we haven't been great at home but we're starting to get more pieces to our team back we're finding a little confidence so it could go either way I don't care how much firepower their offense looks like that doesn't mean that's how it's gonna show up on the road on a Monday night game lots of things can happen we don't have to worry about the curtains bro..LOL

on a side note Cooper rush actually beat this Bengals team with Joe Burrows I believe it was Joe Burrows who started that game so we have that right and that defense over there for them is not very good so who knows it is a toss up it's kind of hard to figure out...

There are 2 significant differences now vs. when they win the previous game with Rush at QB.

First, Cincy was coming off a SB loss and dealing with that hangover. Their offense functioning anywhere near like they are now. It wasn’t just Dallas that held them in check. They didn’t start functioning well into the season.

Second, Dallas had a much better running attack then. Things are starting to point up in that regard, but 1 game a trend doesn’t make.

I said a 2 differences, but I’ll give bonus. This defense is not on par with that defense. Yet. Yes, they’re getting players back, but this Cincy offense will be a barometer on where they are.

Why no pre-game thread yet?

What the heck kind of a fan forum is this?

You know what the significant difference is it's a different game LMAO I'm just reminding you that Cooper rush did beat Cincinnati before that's a fact you can't take it away so and by the way why are you using that argument that Dallas is not the only team that held him in check are you trying to tell me you haven't seen the record this year I mean literally what exactly point are you trying to make because you know I'm fresh with some coffee rant power right now?

This is literally 2 teams that are underperforming but at least the Cowboys have an excuse of having over 18 injuries it just piled on they have no excuse they are the most overrated underperforming team they're so disappointing every year because they have all that talent and don't know what to do with it but why don't we hear about that on ESPN all the time how their coach needs to be fired how they need a new AGM why are they not a new story all the time apparently that's only like for the dallas cowboys..
.

I don't need to hear about last time or this time, they had a full complement of team and by the way the team was actually probably better so we met a better team last time, they literally had the same players minus Mixon the running back, there's a little bit difference, their defense is worse, I don't see what you're saying, you think they're coming in here hot like there's some team were supposed to like be scared of ??? no their offense is the same as it was last time we met them their defense is worse and they don't have Mixon..​

So, if you're going to really try to explain how we should be more worried this time you're losing you're going to lose that every time because I remember that team they were a better team but the real knock on that team is they are slow starting team every year and that is why we caught them with their pants down.... they didn't give us any respect, but I can tell you right now they are not a team that we should consider a top team and be scared of... Yes the likelihood we might lose because of all that offensive firepower but that's how it was last time.. we're also coming off basically a by....had a lot of time to rest and prepare...

It's pretty much strength on strength , they literally are really not good on defense and our offense is down a little bit given we're using backups so there's a good match up our defense is getting healthy right now they have a little bit of confidence so that's a strength on strength... This game can go either way I don't know why you're giving them flowers this is a bad team that puts up a lot of points they look like the 2020 Dallas Cowboys before Prescott got hurt they were putting up a lot of points but couldn't stop anyone and most of the time they lost those games.
