We'll see. To their credit, Philly was the only team to decisively beat us last year after Week 1. I like our chances on Sunday.

I don't mind these kinds of predictions. I want the Cowboys looking up and playing for their lives. They should have murdered the Giants, but let the Gnats hang around. We were a bit complacent. We knew we were better and thought we could win by just showing up.

Nothing has changed. Control the time of possession and limit the mistakes and Philly is very beatable. Try to get in a track meet with them and you're in for a long day.

I fully expect to see Michael get some run in this game. He's a downhill guy who will help control the clock and put a thumping on defenders. The offensive line is going to have its work cut out for them. The Eagles run all kinds of hybrid looks. We're going to have to run the ball well to slow down their exotic, hybrid blitzes.

So, like I said, nothing new.

This is going to be tough game, much tougher than last week, imo. Our D is going to have to show up for 4 Q. They did just shut down a good QB/WR combo with the NYFG but the Eagles are going to try and run it down our throats, you can count on that. We must get a lead early like ATL did and never let off the gas. If we make Bradford beat us, with those WRs, I really like our chances.

Their guards both suck. Going to be tough to score a lot of points with Tyrone Crawford spending more time in the Eagles backfield than Murray. Bradford doesn't seem to like it when guys get in his face. I think we may get a lot of interceptions.

Didn't Seattle use Michael to close out the game vs the Eagles last year? I believe he was in there to run out the clock, everyone knew he was getting the ball, and the Eagles couldn't stop him.

What I can't wait for is Sean Lee versus his old buddy, Demarco Murray. I would love to see Sean lay the wood to DM. I could see Sean stripping DM of the ball in a crucial moment.

I believe our defense will have a little chip on their shoulders (no pun intended) and a little something waiting for DM, Matthews, Sproles; their entire offense.
