Shocked, awed and a bit worried

Not going to lie. I am worried. Only because Rodgers is Rodgers.
This is true, Aaron is playing great but he doesn't play defense. Also I think this is the game that the legend of Dak Prescott begins. And I keep reminding myself that Green Bay had a really hard time containing Dak in the first game they played and Green Bay was healthier then. We won that game in Lambeau and we were shorthanded offensively and defensively.

I think we will win, but any anxiety I have is because of Aaron.

This is a very good point. Green Bay is not the hottest team in the NFL, they're just the hottest team the last 6 weeks. If you look at the last 15 weeks then that would be the Cowboys who were only 4 points from going undefeated into the last game.
Do not delude yourself, rotund master of the Covington marsh!
GB IS THE HOTTEST TEAM!
Approach only with big respect, mon!
Be strong but humble.

Let's just all cash in our chips. We can't beat Green Bay and the mighty Aaron Rodgers. We might as well not even show up.

THE WAY THEY MANHANDLED A TEAM THAT TWICE BEAT US IS WORRISOME.
Zeke is going to have to run all day for us to beat GB.
Any dissenting, naive opinions?

Lol, I'm not sure what a rotund master of the Covington marsh is but I'll take it as a compliment. I fully respect the Packers and Aaron Rodgers, I just feel that they're not invincible. I'll maybe concede they are the hottest team right now but our team is pretty stinking good. Our oline can handle their Dline and front 7, if they bring guys up to stop Zeke then Dak will pick on that wounded secondary cuz our receivers on one on one matchups will win a majority of the time. If they bring back the safety and try to double up Dez or play Cover 2, Zeke will be well fed by the end of the day. I think it comes down to Dak, obviously, not turning the ball over. There will be drives that our defense will get stung by Rodgers, but our offense will be able to move the ball consistently against their defense.

So in a nutshell, am I worried about the game: of coarse, it's the playoffs and Rodgers has tons more experience than Dak does. So if Dak plays within himself and the moment doesn't get too big for him then I think we have a good chance of winning. Aaron Rodgers is the hottest player in the league right now but the Green Bay Packers team is wounded by injuries and vulnerable to what we bring to the table. But make no mistake, every time Rodgers drops back to pass I will have butterflys in my tummy. I have a lot of respect for him. But I feel our team can beat their team, we're just better across the board.

This is where giving our starters 2 weeks off will pay huge dividends... We will be the more physical team next Sunday and we will find a way to win just like we did against Pittsburgh and Philly

Where in recent history have we come out looking sharp after extra time off??

Can we create a single thread for all the nervous nelly cowboy fans so we don't ruin the experience for those who have faith in this team.

Can't be worried.

Either we go out there and get our *** handed to us, or we hand them a *** whooping.
