Maybe I'm Pollyanna--but I think we beat the Colts

[Kittymama]

Don't know why--call it woman's intuition. I had a bad feeling leading up to the Skins game, which turned out to be true. But I had a good feeling this wee--& I'm totally calm about next Sunday. I'm really seeing us winning against the Colts & then TB. Like I said, maybe it's crazy, but I just have this feeling. I honestly think we do what the Skins did last year--get hot & make it into the playoffs.

After watching them today vs the Bills, I think the Colts are 'ripe'.

I'm with you, as long as our team stays focused and cuts down on the STUPID PENALTIES I think we can hang with anyone. ANYONE

If we cant generate pressure on Manning, it will be a long day. He'll pick our vanilla defensive schemes apart if he has time.

Offensively we should be able to move the ball and score if we avoid turnovers. Should be a similar game to the KC game last season.

they have beaten the Titans, Jets, and Bills by a combined 7 points, 2 of those games being at home. I think we have a good chance of pulling the upset

The timing is right. Glad Indy is still undefeated.

 

[SA_Gunslinger]

i expect us to go 5-2 the rest of the way.

i have this one penciled in as one of the 2.

The stupid penalities is gonna be hard to cut down, thats just the norm with our team. We got to make the big plays like we did today, TO didn't drop the TD reception and Crayton made a nice tight rope move to get into the endzone. Those type of plays will get us over the hump.....

Book it, Dallas wins.

Unless the Colts get more than there fair share of calls, I really expect the Cowboys to win.

I've been saying for more than a year (I'll link if anyone doubts that) that Dallas matches up better against the Colts than any other team.

Power running inside (Anthony Thomas had almost 100 yards against them today, yes, that Anthony Thomas), one corner who can shut down one reciever allowing the defense to roll to the other side and a rush off the edge are what can beat the Colts and Dallas has all three in spades.

Hey, it is not Crazy! It is going to happen.....I am with ya!

Last year, teams finally beat Indy by pressuring Manning. The Cowboys haven't, or can't bring that type of pressure. Something has to change. They had one sack today, but had a lot of pressure on an inexperienced quarterback. Manning is not going to wait as long to get rid of the ball.

Indy can be beat. They deserved to lose today. It will take Dallas' best game of the year to beat Indy next week. And, our quarterback is not of any doubt. he can do it. He made some tough passes today, and his receivers all made some tough catches. And, I don't think Glenn would have added anything to the mix today.

Rewind to last year ... we were sitting at 7-3 and on top of our division. Big game against the NY Giants for the top spot in the NFC East.

We blew it. Got murdered.

When it counted, and the playoffs were at our doorstep, we dropped 4 of the last 6 games.

Fast forward to today ... 7 games left. Playoffs are on the line. We drop 3 and we're done.

Indy IS our playoffs.

I agree with you. Our team just happens to be designed to matchup well against the colts. I would have liked our odds even last year against them. Of course if we cant get any pressure that "one corner" is gonna allow one of those weapons to get open. The other thing that scares me is how many passes manning completes to TEs in the middle of the field. Utecht and Clark can both catch the ball and dallas has seemed to struggle at times covering the short middle part of the field. Who knows for sure, but I really like our chances against them. :starspin
