So this is the game that we've all been waiting for since the beginning of November and it's for all the marbles. The Cowboys are coming off their biggest win of the year with a dominating performance on both sides of the ball against the Rams and the Eagles have hung in there squeaking out wins against the Giants and Commanders. The game plan for both teams is pretty predictable, the Cowboys need to rely heavily on their run game and pound Zeke and Pollard for 25 plus carries if not more especially since Dak is dealing with a couple of injuries that might hurt the passing game. For the Eagles who are decimated at receiver, will try their best to get the ball in the hands of Ertz and Goedert and mix in a little bit of Boston. The weather doesn't look to be a problem so with that I really like the Cowboys and I mean big I just don't think the Eagles will be able to hang with the Cowboys with all of those injuries and even if they were a hundred percent healthy I would still take the Cowboys to win in this one, injuries plus Zeke is 5-0 against the Eagles when he plays and on top of that Dak owns the NFC East.

If Dak is less than 80%, I will change my prediction. Unfortunately, we won’t know until gametime. Philly will obviously stack the box and the line since we likely won’t go deep often. They will also target Dak’s shoulder. We must proceed with caution. I believe we can get it done.

offense gets off to a slow start: 3 x 3-and-outs on their 1st 3 possessions
defense holds Philly in check and surrenders 1 FG on their 1st 3 possessions
offense gets 1 drive going but stalls at midfield due to a phantom holding call, punts to pin Philly inside their own 10
defense is showing fatigue from being on the field so much and gives up a big run to Sanders
the flood gates open
the rest of the game the defense can't get off the field and the offense finally starts clicking late into the 3rd and all through the 4th
but it's too late

PHI 34

I don't like the level of confidence and tilted predictions toward the Cowboys simply for showing up one game, while forgetting how they were sorry for most of the season.. Just like our defense decided to show up against the Rams all of a sudden, I feel eagles defense will show up on Sunday ..... not feeling good here

:cool:

Cowboys 35, Eagles 10.

Just not impressed with the Eagles. Being in Philly won't do much for them because they really have no offense, a soft D and any pressure on Wentz creates turnovers. Division clincher and pretty easy.

Massive rainstorm rolls into Philadelphia. Temperature drops and turns into massive blizzard. Blinding snow. Neither team can move the ball or accomplish much. Eagles have the ball on their own 5 yard line. Wentz takes a snap and feels the ball fly past his head into the endzone. He recovers but, is tackled for a safety. Players are nearly frozen and go through the motions until the clock runs out. Cowboys win 2-0!

This team under Garrett has always been fragile. If we are missing even one piece it all comes down like a house of cards. Like someone else said, if Dak is even 80% injured we won't win. Can't trust our Defense. Wince sucks and passes even worse then Dak sometimes but you can't expect that all the time. I had a good feeling about this before the Dak news.

Cowboys 23-17. Dak hits Jarwin on a late TD pass in the fourth to make it 23-10. Eagles get a garbage-time TD to close some of the gap but can't recover the onside.

Dak hurt is shoulder in the 1st quarter of the RAMS game. He toughed it out then and he'll do so again!

BOOM! GO COWBOYS!
