Monday Night Prediction

[SLATEmosphere]

Watch Delhomme go for 320 yards 3 TD's. No turnovers.


Just pathetic. We have no playmakers on D.

I think that pounding the rock will be the key and I'm thinking it starts with Choice.

If our defense can play like the 20th ranked defense vs the 30th ranked defense, and our offense does not turn it over more than once, then it should be an easy victory.

Now I know we have a few "gimmy" games if you will (although no games in the NFL are give me's just using the reference) but we could possible get our groove back and confidence back with these next few games.

This is our opportunity to get our defense in order.

Put Newman on Smith with a safety over the top, man underneath.

Run Felix Jones 20 times.

Do that, you win.

Get some sacks.

You nailed it.

Your conclusion looks out of place in relation to your premises. LOL

I predict the Cowboys Offense will roll up 400 yards and 30 plus points like the 1st two games. Bennett scores.

I predict the Cowboys Defense will give up 200 yards and a max of 17 points. They will force turnovers and get sacks. Coverage in the secondary will be better (has to be) and the front 7 will generate pressure.

I predict this team will right the ship and atone for the close loss from Sunday night.

This team is 1-1. To miss the playoffs they have to lose at least 5 more games. That's gonna be tough without a key injury.

Sunday night was an aberration. This team will continue to outplay opponents but won't continue the boneheaded errors. They can't continue.

The 1st two games showed me a fully adaptable offense that can score in any way the defense allows and a defense that will bend at times but not break enough to get you beat consistantly. (Red Zone defense was very good)

I guess we'll have to see if this team makes a liar out of me.

That's a prediction I'd be thrilled to see pan out.

Mostly sunny, temps in the mid to upper 70s, light win, 20% chance of rain and a 100% chance of pain.

Sweet....good line.

I firmly BELIEVE we will beat Carolina, but I KNOW we have to. If we lose two home games to start the season, this team will implode and we will not make the playoffs. Having said that, I feel extremely confident we will win.

One other thing. We all like piling up sacks, but they really are one of the most overrated stats in the NFL. Putting pressure on a QB and knocking him down are just as important as actually getting a sack. Bottom line is the defense has to disrupt the opposing QB and it can be accomplished in different ways.
