mr KJJ----can there be forgiveness after a period of time???
Don’t let what I say bother you. I have no issue with you or what you do here. All I do is give opinions.

We are so thin on defense it's making me worried I mean this sounds like a game that could be like 34 to 31 and let me predict that as my score with it's time with 45 seconds to go and aubrey kicks a game winner from 63 yards... Then they get the ball back with 20 seconds and have a penalty they don't agree with and the drama will continue in the next year lol Cowboys win....

In all seriousness kendricks being out he's the green dot wearing quarterback of the defense and that's a major blow I just don't know how we can withstand that offensive there's especially in the run game with so many guys out yes we made it through last week but now we got more to add to it...

And yes miracles do happen and I'm praying for one because we cannot lose another game at home Can you imagine losing another high scoring game at home that'd be four in a row or something like that that can't happen we had home field advantage we were like 18 and oh with Mike McCarthy at home and all of a sudden this collapse and now we're winning games on the road outdoors on grass and now we can't win at home something's gotta go..

Won't take a miracle.

We're 3-point underdogs this week. We were 2.5-point underdogs last week.
Correct but HFA is worth ~3 points in Vegas

against Pittsburgh on a neutral field, we were basically a pick em

Vegas is indicating if we played Detroit on a neutral field we'd be a 6 point dog

Not impossible but this isn't apples to apples vs last week.

Detroit probably not as strong as Pittsburgh defensively but they are markedly better offensively than the steelers

winnable game but we'll have to play way better than we did last week and avoid the same mistakes and wasted red zone opportunities

Dear fellow Zoners---of course i promised no PLATS this season....but according to many pundits we got no shot against high octane offense of Lions

especially depleted defense that was not even playing well when not depleted.....i have been cowboy fan since January 1971...53 years...and if this

was the day of Staubach even with everything against us i always knew we could pull out a win.....OK this is Dak's team now and i know some to many

of you dont like Dak....but say what you will....yes he made some awful interceptions....but he also dug deep in crunch time....and had awareness and strength

to haul in a fumble when no one blocked for Rico....then Tolbert hurt on next play that should have been easy TD....then one play left.......and finally fat Mike

gave us an offense with a lot of motion....tolbert comes all the way cross and had less than 1 yd separation and Dak delivered a bullet to only spot Tolbert could

have caught it....and Tolbert was playing like a real #2....he was hurt but would not let defender strip him and TD and we win against all odds....I aint counting out

the Cowboys this week...NO WAY.....if you hate cowboys i understand you want them to lose....but please dont be a fence rider....dont count out Silver and Blue

Huge Mistake if you do....please love to hear your views on this huge game?????????
I’ve given you grief about your plats but keep them going. We support you. Go cowboys!

I was talking about last year when you said you were done with PLATS. You ended up starting another one. You have said in the past that you were done doing them but ended up doing another one. Am I wrong? If you have fun doing them, go ahead and do them but you have to be prepared for some backlash when they don’t pan out.
Now that is true......i have done that i think 3 times.......i get so angry when we are suppose to win and get wallaped.....hoping we play out of our minds tomorrow and beat Lions

before the bye.......we all would feel so much better if our win was due to superior coaching schemes....which made up for not having superior personnel....and come out of bye

with Parsons....and couple weeks later Lawrence....but we have to leave it all on field tomorrow.....i still believe in miracles
