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!
Just be careful there...

That Boom might be the Cowboys imploding on the field with another stinker of a game.

Not too long ago this used to be a good road team...
That is simply not the case now and one game does not define the outcome of this one...

The eagles are playing for the same stakes as the cowboys winner take all... I fear the cowboys like the majority of the fans on this site will underestimate the Eagles...

I agree. I can easily see the Eagles pulling out a win here. Both teams have struggled and looked unprepared in many games this year. Based on talent, the Cowboys should kill this team, but on being ready to play, I give a better chance that the Eagles. We have seen a Garrett lead team far too often look like crap when needed most.

We will be prepared. It’s up to our trench guys. With Dak injured it may be a low scoring game if the sell out to the run and are able to stop Elliot. But I think our O-Line moves them and Elliot starts rolling. Our Defense needs to being pressure.

Dallas 27, Eagles 20 :thumbup:

Dak will step up and deliver more than anyone expected, while Zeke, Pollard and the WR crew will pitch in to more than aid his cause.

We won't get Zeke going. Dak will be off because of his shoulder and finger.

Eagles 30
Cowboys 13

Garrett is gone.

CoachD--are you saying its time to lay a Platinum Guarantee?


I'm not one for guarantees but I do like the Cowboys chances this week based on health and a few other factors that I already mentioned.

Philly will play more man coverage and run blitz to focus on stopping zeke. But we fight through and get the win.

Plus we play better during the day than we do at night with the exception of playing teams with losing records

I see the Eagles playing an inspired game on Defense. I can see Kai Forbath missing a kick or two and the eagles making a number of kicks. Zeke has a great game, goes over 100 yards but it leads to no points thanks to the missed field goals. Carson Wentz completes the tri-fecta of comeback wins to take the lead in the NFC east.

I will take Philadelphia on a late field goal after Dallas misses one which would have made it a 4 point game.
19-17.

Then we get stuck with 5 weeks of who will be the coach and tons of bogus rumors plus draft rumor crap while we watch the playoffs go on yet again without Dallas.
After this I'm going to go throw myself off a freeway bridge!:flagwave:This is the worse team in the NFL we should win big.

I don’t trust Garrett in, win or go home games, but this Philly team is really banged up.

If Garrett gets stupid and tries to force the run if Philly has 8-9 guys in the box, we will struggle on offense. We need to be smart and pass when they stack the box, and run when the box is light.

Why am I getting the same nervous tension that I haven't had since the final game of the 1993 season? Or that week 15 game in the 2014 season. There are really no Super Bowl implications to this game. I should feel no different than I did at the end of '11, '12, and '13, right?

Dallas -27
Eagles-24

Not a chance. This is set up to be one of the most embarrassing games in cowboys history next to the pants on the ground game. We have a history of dominating the eagles so that will make it really embarrassing. Sanders and Boston the midget will run all over the cowboys like the rams did to the defense in the playoffs last year.

Since you can clearly predict the future, mind telling me the mega million numbers? I’d like to get some money before Christmas arrives :grin:.

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.
This. If I'm the eagles, I blitz the house on Dak the whole first quarter and test that shoulder. Even with a few roughing the passer penalties to see what this injury is really about.

I feel like Dak has progressed to the point where his hot reads can pick that up, as long as his guys up front do their job. His injuries can't be that bad that he can't throw a few slants to Coop and let him do his thing, or even easier, unleash Zeke in the passing game. Feels like we've gotten away from some of that.
