I can't shake this sinking feeling that this game isn't going to go like we all think/want/expect it to.

I'm not sure this is the most mature team out there, and I'll bet MM feels same way.

Everyone in here just assumes this will be an easy win. Why do I get the sense the players are too, and are focusing way too much time on TD celebration planning for a prime time game, than on the Colts? The Colts are trying their azz off for Saturday....and they run the ball a lot, and likely won't give us any gifts. We fall victim to a trap game every year. GreenBay was NOT it...nobody looks past GB , Aaron Rodgers, at home (even though they aren't great now).

Not saying win, lose, draw.. But I can't shake worrisome feeling that in 4th quarter, we will be sweating, and that the game day thread will be a roller coaster ride tonight.




Dallas plays hard they win. Colts have issues.

Colts gave the mighty, unbeatable Eagles all they handle. The needed a game winning drive with under 2 minutes left to win. I'm not sure why everyone believes this will be an easy win.

I do like confidence. I don't like arrogance. I hope there is clear distinction between the two shown in their performance.
Will be looking for a prepared level headed squad that is intent on building a playoff push of momentum.

I hope McCarthy's weak practice does not show up. Alot of coaches go by the you play as you practice/prepare.

If Taylor is ripping off huge runs and we literally can’t stop him, the Colts could win. Or if this team just completely poops the bed.

But those are the only ways Indy is winning. We’re better at almost every position.
Chicago ran for over 200 yards against us and lost by 20. More needs to happen for the Cowboys to lose to the Colts then Taylor going off.

considering the whoopin' they put on us a few years ago...and we still have alot of guys on this team who played on that team...i'm not worried about focus.

To be honest, this team has a history of underperforming against bad teams. They play to the level of their competition and they lose a lot of those games.

Who cares if it’s a roller coaster ride though? If we win that’s all that matters. They aren’t supposed to be easy and the easy ones are usually the toughest. This team just played Philly tough. Will likely be a once score game in the 4th and that’s fine. Just win

With Philly rolling over Tennessee you just have to wonder if the Cowboys are going to show up tonight. Even if they win out their chances of winning the NFC are slim and none. They may feel they can kiss off a couple of games and still get a wildcard. They may have a real tough time getting up for the next three opponents. If they lose their edge it will be another one and done if they do make the playoffs.
