My Hesitation for Sat. Nite

[Kaika]

After beating a team twice, and the second time a shut out. I think it may be hard to get these guys up for a third time.

I hope they don't get complacent.

I know, some will say it's a play off game , and that should be enough motivation ,but it's human nature to be alittle confident hopefully not over confident ,after winning two games from them.

As you know ,second place teams usually play harder.

I hope and I think The Boys will win ,But I'm just sayin.

The Ravens/Steelers rivalry is pretty heated, and Pitt managed to take 3 from the Ravens last year.

Besides trying to beat a team for a 3rd time, my only concern is that the Eagles did leave a lot of yards on the field.

Donovan McNabb was horrible and was either missing wide open receivers or throwing balls in the dirt.

I just don't see the Eagles beating the Cowboys Saturday. I didn't realize how bad their Linebackers were and just how "old" McNabb looks now.

I was worried about this too at first, however, the loss to the Giants in the playoffs will help us here. There isn't a guy on the team who doesn't know what could happen if we don't prepare.

They have suffered quite a few injuries at LB'er.

For the most part, we have been extremely lucky with injuries this year. Hopefully that trend will continue.

The quote from Crayton after yesterday's game hopefully indicates that there is no complacency on this team.

There are a lot o players still here from the giants loss in 07 which I think will help prepare the team for anything. Add to that brooking and romo. I think the boys should be mentally ready for anything Philly throws us.

That's how he is prone to play when you get serious pressure in his face. As long as Dallas continues to pressure him then McNabb will continue to play like that.


Beating anyone in the playoffs is hard. Beating a team 3 times in a season is always going to be tough. It's been done by people before, however, and it's what Dallas has to do now.

No excuses. They just need to come out and play like they've been playing and get their jobs done.

I expect a battle by Philly but I think our team is playing very good right now and no I don't see any let up by this team if anything I think this team will be very intense heading into this game

I dont think getting up for this game will be a problem at all. This team has a good mentality.

and having mcnabb say in his pc that we are playing for bigger things than the nfc east was epically stupid. I thank him for that.

throw in everyone is saying they didnt try? and that they will win this week.

we have all we need for motivation this week.

the only thing I will say we didnt see yesterday was their wildcat package.

The biggest thing to ne about the whole game yesterday was that philly had poor field position all day, mcbriar and buehler eliminated jackson yesterday.

and if we come out with three tight ends all day like yesterday they couldnt stop the run, they didnt blitz because it makes no sense to blitz into that set and all our tight ends can catch.

we have a ton of motivation. Just getting the playoff monkey off their back is enough.

the crowd was really energized yesterday and it will be next week, I cant tell you how great having the game at 8 on saturday is for the crowd here. it will be the best crowd of the season.

That is music to my ears.
