Just a hint. Dont act like you've already won before the game has been played. It took me all of 2 minutes last thursday to gather just a fraction of what was being said from the other side.
RonBurgundy&Gold-"Maybe someone should remind them of the slaughter at Fed Ex later in the season."
Skin Them Alive-"What happened the second game? Dallas fans seem to only remember the frist lucky win and not the shut out. I guess the first one hurt more but come on. This is is a whole new year and this game is going to be close and I have no idea who will win but everyone is giving it to Dallas after they gave up 24 straght points to the jags."
909997-"what about 35-7"
Rodriggo-"They missed the playoffs by one game, that one. It doesn't matter how great Parcells is, it still comes down to the talent on the field and the character of the team. We got them beat."
BigRay-"Wow I'm really scared
.. I do not know about you guys but I am not that impressed with the Cowboys from what I have seen."
Blondie-WE can win in Dallas. THEY think we are horrible...........they don't realize we are lulling them into a false sense of security!!
Destino-WE WANT DALLAS!!!!
&*^% yeah I want dallas. Nothing cheers me up like a good ol cowboy stomping! Let's pick up where we left off with them last year - breaking their hopes of a post season run!
bubba9497-"all the attention so far has been on Dallas, and an overall attitude that it is a win for them.
Sort of like the way all the attention was about Dallas before game 2 last season.... doesn't really mean anything, just getting a good feeling vibe from it"
DeanCollins-"every sunday is a new day. Dallas is apt to be somewhat tentitive after the last two debacles. personaly I was disappointed that Gibbs didn't "pile on"
in game two last year. I would've like to seen the score at 57-7 and think that that was easily attainable"
tr1-"Dallas has no running game.
That means Bledsoe has to win the game.
That means
"
fdarugar-"hey if its any consolation to you guys who care about what the media has to say...Theisman has already locked us in for the W on espn.com"
RiggoReincarnated-"As I was driving to work this morning, I thought that there is a good chance Gibbs told some of his key players that we don't want to lay it all on the line for Minnesota, and if we win that would be great but we don't want to look dominant at this point in the season.
Why? We have the Cowboys at Dallas this week, a tough win by any standards. The genius of losing to Minnesota is that the Cowboys and the rest of the league underestimates us, and we are the decided underdogs.
While losing to Minnesota hurts temporarily, in the long run its the divisional games that are much more important to win. This could all very well be part of the Master Plan."
Henry-"The loss against the Vikings was a tough one. You never want to drop one at home like that, and we could be in for a long season. I have to admit that despite my supreme confidence in our more-than-proven coaching staff, I nevertheless consumed with doubt going forward. Our depth, our schemes, our attitude ... nothing seems to be a given this season.
Still, as we approach our game with the Cowboys this week, there is a certain lightness of being I feel that I haven't felt in literally decades. At first I couldn't figure it out, considering the aforementioned consuming doubt I feel about this season. No, this game, THIS game isn't bothering me. It's not even that I think we will win, exactly. It's something else. And this morning I woke up and realized what it is:
The Monkey is dead.
The Cowboys don't have our number anymore. We didn't just get that Monkey off our back. We grabbed it by the neck, slammed it's head into the concrete, swung it around like a rubber chicken, threw it against the wall with a gruesome SPLAT, and watched it slowly slide down, leaving a trail of gross monkey parts. Then we took the carcass, shoved it in a blender and hit frapé.
The Monkey is dead.
Now, we may very well lose this week. But it will be because our corners are bad or Bledsoe rebounds or Portis reinjures himself or we don't get enough push up front. It won't be that damn Monkey. He's gone. The dread I've gotten accustomed to feeling as Dallas Week approached is gone with it. The Cowboys are just another team again. Sure, a team we hate with the intensity of a thousand burning suns. But they have nothing on us.
This week, they have to be the better team to beat us. And I for one am expecting a hell of a game.
That is all."
