11 straight...law of averages says they are due for a loss.
That’s one way to look at it

the other way to look at things is that the Cowboys inconsistency predicts that they will slide back to their old ways.

WTH? Niners are a great team? And what are we? Chopped liver?

Let's compare:

Niners have the #1 Defense.
Cowboys have the #5 Defense.

Niners have the #6 scoring Offense.
Cowboys have the #4 scoring Offense.

3rd Down Efficiency %:
Niners @ 45.0
Cowboys @ 45.5

Sacks:
Niners @ 44
Cowboys @ 54

Interceptions:
Niners @ 20
Cowboys @ 16

As you can see, the Cowboys are just as good or slightly better in most categories. Plus, the Cowboys have beaten much more playoff ready teams than the Niners have this year. The Cowboys had a top 10 hard schedule. Niners had one of the easiest. I don't understand anyone's lack of faith or being scared of the 49ers, especially after what this Cowboys team has shown how it can play and put up numbers against even the toughest opponents this season.

Cowboys have a 80% chance to win this game if both our Oline and Dline show up and battle. 49ers are in for a rude awakening.
Spoken like a true homer. 80% is a complete joke. But whatever, you types are a dime a dozen around here. One nice win and your think we winning it all. LOL

The Cowboys have a chance but it would be an upset no question. Lets both hope your right. Most of you said the same thing last year.

Like I said last week, if both our Oline and Dline win their battles, Cowboys will win.

I like the Cowboys chances after seeing how they did against TB. Sure, SF spanked them hard last time, but payback is coming.

Prescott went into that game with picks in 7 straight games and didn't have 1 in the game.

The Niners have won 11 in a row.

Streaks change.

Niners took their lunch money last game and the Cowboys made themselves look foolish at the end of that game. The teams are pretty even so I ask myself "which one is playing for more"? Cowboys win because of this reason, they want it more.

The other dynamic that I like is I haven't seen a QB set himself up for a "get over the hump game" more than Prescott did the last half of this season. Seven in a row with picks and some pick 6's and then he puts that game out there on the road? The door will never be more open for him to step through and break out of that 2nd tier.

Yet they had the opportunity at the end of that game. 14 penalties and they had the opportunity.

We haven't addressed that part of that game and just how much that helped defeat them. The Cowboys were playing against two teams in that game. And they beat themsleves as much as the Niners did, maybe more.

Niners are the best team in football. This isnt the bucs were playing.
Are they really the best? Media thinks they are. We will see their schedule was easier than ours.I will bet that we will beat them and their weakness will show through. Especially that secondary they can be exploited.

Let's not give up a team record 14 penalties and 5 sacks like we did last year. If we play close to what we did Monday night in Tompa Bay, we have a good chance of winning.

Not many or any?
well they played the chiefs... the chargers (questionable as good), the commanders are ok... buccaneers are ok, saints are ok to good, had a hard time with las vegas...

meanwhile we played the giants X2, eagles X2, commanders X2, vikings, bengals, titans and bucs.

ALL playoff teams or very close to being playoff teams.

either way , we are not chopped liver. it just depends on which Dallas team shows up.
