Glad we've already wrapped up a playoff spot. Seems between illness and injury that our defense could use some recoup time. I know there will be many on here who panic if we lose to the Eagles, especially with a backup QB, but just like they will be different with Hurts back, our defense might be quite different when (if) we meet again.

I'm really in favor of resting some of our dinged-up and ill players over the next few weeks to try to be as healthy as possible when the playoffs begin.

I'm in favor of that too. The Cowboys are basically locked into the 5th seed anyway and even if they end up 11-6 or something like that it's better to have a healthy team for the playoffs.

Lol. Eagles getting 3/4 a defense with backups. But it’ll be all Minshew mania

Right. I absolutely want to win every game we can, but the goal is playoff success. If we need to give players like Lawrence, Parsons and Diggs time off to be able to take our best shot, I'm for it.

The offense is pretty healthy overall and we need to integrate a new receiver, so let's lean on them more for the next three weeks and rest up some key defenders. And test out some younger ones.

Nothing in me can stomach losing to the Eagles this week. Besides that, the psyche of both teams is a concern.

They didn’t call up Takk. So I’m guessing they feel comfortable with Armstrong, tank and Fowler

Armstrong is good to go? That makes me feel alot better if so. I thought he was nursing something..

Big Tuna would have declared him fit to play....I miss MY old NFL!!!

Parcells was an NFL treasure.
My favorite Tuna clip was, with NY, he was walking with the team doctor.
Doc is saying their kicker is banged up but can play.
Parcells- "I don't need him to play, doc. I just need him to kick."

Same here CWR. We'll probably go 1 and done in the playoffs anyway, but with Hurts out we very well BETTER beat Philly!
