Moving on: Arizona Cardinals

[D4KADON]

I know we lost Dak, and it sucks. I'm a huge fan of Dak, but the fact is we have the division lead. Andy Dalton was brought in here for this moment. This is going to be a tough game. Arizona's qb is playing outside of his mind and containing their WR is going to be a headache. If Dallas can run the ball, slow the game down, I like our chances.

The only caveat with the new makeup of our team is that the focus of the team is now not on the qb but Elliott. This should help Dalton spread the ball around.

If Dallas somehow wins this game, it will be the first time in a long time Dallas gets a W against a winning team.

What say you? What are your vibes thus far with Monday's matchup?

Cardinals in a blowout.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Zona is putting up 40 easily. I don’t think we can keep up.

 

[Risen Star]

Cowboys 44
Cardinals 23

 

[HungryLion]

Does anybody here think our defense holds them to less than 31+ points?


Anyone?

 

[D4KADON]

Don't we get some defensive reinforcements back? Isn't Leighton and a few others coming back?

 

[JayFord]

This defense chasing Kyler around sounds like an instant 40 points

Not necessarily our defense, but playing the possession game should help. I don't understand why we didn't even do that with Prescott. I felt we got too trigger happy
and that led to more 3 and outs, putting more pressure on an already tired, crappy defense.

if our offense for ONCE this year play clean and not be responsible for a minimum of 14points game. Seriously Dak pick 6 , Dalton center exchange continue to kill this team..our defense is bad enough but the offense needs to play clean football , run more, and use PA try TOP game back to out identity , feed pollard and zeke until the defense brings down 8-9 in a true box then open it up with play action..

thats FACT and scaling it back a bit will benefit this team..

 

[ChronicCowboy]

The OL is a mess and they are the real key to the offense. If they improve, this offense may be able to control games.

By halftime, maybe

Hopkins against this defense almost gives me calvin Johnson flashbacks from a few years ago.

LvE should be back which is a huge help. I saw actual progress from dlaw and jaylon last week.. your secondary is getting healthy. All things that give me a small glimmer of hope, but these DTs continue to scare me. Might be the worst DT group in the league, especially of hill cant go. Our scheme really depends on those guys winning at the line too.

I think the offense is fine with dalton. I expect more zeke/pollard, but this team can still put up 30+, and should be expected to do so.

Don't feel great about this one, but think we have a punchers chance.

 

[Pompey-Cowboy]

I see a repeat of the Seahawks game, high scoring defeat where we are always slightly behind and chasing shadows. Who knows though, maybe a switch of focus to Zeke changes things for this offense.

The emotional high will be over.. I don't know. Unless the Cardinals lay a stinker, we probably lose in heartbreaking, one score type fashion.

Andy will put up numbers, though. It's the defense I'm worried about.

 

[MikeB80]

How many trick plays will arizona run?

This seems like a game Dallas defense will have no chance in and then the cardinals pass rush will win the game.

Playing some ball control will help the defense. Absolutely.

but if the defense doesn’t stop the run themselves....... it’s not gonna matter. And our run defense has been horrific.


cowboys lose yesterday if Saquon was playing. Easily.

 

[Ren]

Our D just gave up 34 points to a team that had scored 48 all season going into that game and we just lost our QB. Back up QB and awful OL and defense, we are going to give up 50 in this one

I forgot an Hopkins...

this might get ugly
