That's often the kiss of death to get most picking us. I agree.....mostly.

I dont know how anyone can pick the boys against the Pack, even without Rogers. This team has no life in them, they play uninspired ball and instill no confidence in their fans. I will watch but I am expecting most of the third and 4th quarters I'll be doing yard work or taking a nap again. Thats happened more this season then any time I can remember. I just hope the boys look competitive. Thats all I want at this point. I cant envision a scenario where the boys win.

I seriously cannot believe how people think we are favorites. The defense will be lucky to force one punt. And you can't win games with a defense like that.

The only game left that worries me is the Commanders game. We win vs Phily and GB . The skins game has me worried.

If we cant beat a 3 win team starting a rookie QB...................we dont deserve to be in the playoffs.

Yes but the set up for that game is what scares me. Cold weather game outside, against a running team with a backup QB.

Reminds me of the Bears game.

 

[CalCBFan]

I don't think the Cowboys win either. Lacy will run all over us...

With all due respect - Philly should worry you.

 

[Risen Star]

Cowboys 26
Packers 23

 

[Sarge]

Cowboys 24-20

Yeah.. Wasnt everybody picking us on Monday Night? I know almost everyone on ESPN was. We should be able to move the ball in them but unless we can manufacture a pass rush we will make another backup QB look like Otto Graham.

Yard work, in Penna, we just got 8 inches of snow....my yard work was shoveling my long sidewalk...and, until they are eliminated from playing in the SB, I will watch avidly....I agree that they appear to have given up, and perhaps the silver lining to that is that we get a new coach after the season....but, I am thinking that we win with a score around the following:

Dallas 27
Green Bay 24

If Dallas forces 3+ turnovers, then the Dallas score could be more like 34 or 37

Hard to believe the Cowboys have won 2 of their last 3 games isn't it?

Have you seen the Packers play with Flynn at the helm? Absolutely awful. Should be a good game.

yep. I've seen em. Thats part of my point. The boys used to play to the level of competition, raising or lower to that level. They cant muster the up game against good teams this year. they can play with any 500 or below team . The pack are not the same w/o Rogers for sure, but they are still better then us imo. Our D cant stop a high school team lately. I have no confidence we will make their punter tie his shoe today. If Williams and Austin can catch a ball today, we can score with em, but I dont know if we can outscore em.

Make no mistake, I'll be watching and rooting and hoping I'm wrong, but I wont be surprised if I'm not.

Mike McCarthy and Dom capers vs Jason Garrett and monte Kiffin?

Capers units will get stops, kiffins may not.

Green Bay 38 Dallas 20

 

[Tabascocat]

We are a mess right now with no defense. The offense is average but in no way do we lose today. The Packers are worse without Rodgers, JAX might be better at this point.

I really see no reason why we can't win this one but if we do, stick a fork in them, it will be over.

This team will find a way to make Matt Flynn look all world. Other teams would go after him. Instead we will play cute and drop into zones that he can pick apart.

No way does Dallas win this game. Zero chance with that sorry excuse of a defense.

Perhaps, but all of our coaches know their seats are getting hotter. I expect our best showing today out of the three remaining games. They will instill some hope again only to yank it away in week 17 IMO.

Green Bay is really bad and we are at home
