Since Pittsburgh every opponent is scraping every ounce of energy to grind us down and save their hopes for making the playoffs and keeping their goal of a superbowl alive. 3 games in 12 days and coming out top in all three is a great accomplishment. We get the ten day break which should heal some wounds and soothe some sore muscles.
I would like to know how many yards this season Zeke has lost on questionable penalty calls. That call on Free after the 42 yard gain was bizarre.
Dez's long catch to set up the first touchdown is why he gets the big money.
Scandricks hands to the face was pretty weak
Sean Lee at some point deserves some credit without him it would be tough to predict our record.
Good to have the Church back in the house.
The NFC east will be hoping we win out if we beat the Giants next week, strange year 2016.
Thanks Cowboys for making these last couple of weeks filled with great memories. I look forward to the next four games in full playoff mode. This team will be well seasoned by the time January rolls around.


14 Giants #23 24th offense 5th defense : Steelers play Giants this week
15 Bucs #24 16th offense 24th defense : Chargers playing bucs week before our game
16 Lions #18 12th offense 26th defense : Playing Bears week before our game
17 Eagles #7 19th offense 4th defense : Playing Giants week before our game

Shouldn't be any different from all of our other games anyways.

Everybody brings it against Dallas.

I heard a rumour the flu bug was visiting the cowboys this week. This ten day rest could not come at a better time.

Sean Lee definetely looked off to me last night.

He was biting on every single thing during the game and getting out of position.

He did miss some tackle that I thought he normally makes, he was also playing well against their runs. I think the 3 games in 12 days had that knee talking to him.

The next 3 games are all teams we could get in the divisional round if we win the division.

I have a feeling if we win the division and end up the 1 we will be playing detroit, so playing them in a scenario in which the game has no meaning to Dallas possibly is odd. I don't recall a situation like that for us before.

Same goes for Tampa, they could win the south and end up the 4 seed and come here but I don't think they beat the Giants in a playoff game.

I don't think we see the Giants in the divisional round unless we are the 2 seed.

Players missed practice because they were sick this past week and Mike Pope didn't even make the trip last night because he was sick.

Hopefully this goes away soon. Mike Pope must have been pretty sick to not make the trip for a game.

My wife works in Frisco and we live in Dallas, all of her coworkers have symptoms this week. Hope it has run it course.

I heard that also, so glad to sneak out of Minny with this win.

I will be doing a non-football weekend. I have Saturday Regents prep for 3 hours in the morning. Then gonna take the family out for a nice lunch, and catch some autumn sights in NY and CT. Beautiful time of the year. Then go visit the tree at Rockefeller Center Saturday evening.

Sunday will be spent doing some non shopping shopping. :)
