They have to play us twice in the second half of the year. Cowboys are clearly a better team now than they were in September.
So their luck is about to run out.
They're going to be good, close games. I think the Cowboys and Saints are the biggest threats to us, depending on how things shake out. Don't sleep on the Eagles' defense, though. The run defense is legit. If you watch any of our games, even the CBs are solid tacklers. We don't have your playmakers at WR, but I think our offense is more versatile schematically and the ball distribution is more balanced. Obviously you have the best RB/OL combo in football, so that edge goes to you.
But I see two pretty evenly matched teams with different strengths. You have an overpowering, line up and knock your dick in the dirt, TOP offense and a fast, opportunistic D. We have an offense that can adapt against varied defensive personnel/philosophies and more of a strangling, but less exotic, execution defense.
I see a lot of chest-thumping around here, but I think this is going to be a really fun era of the rivalry for the next 10+ years assuming both teams continue to draft well.
