I dont know about this game.... I think it could go either way but It will probably be close regardless.

I live in Kansas City, work here with all these Chief fans. They are pumped for this game. I took a lot of grief today when I went in with all my cowboy attire on. They believe they are going to slaughter Dallas. We shall see.

All the McDonald's had people standing outside handing out guidebooks or something for Red Friday.

We're only one game into the season it takes 4-5 games for a team to establish what type of team they are each year. KC is already off to a better start than they were last year they didn't get their first win until week 3 of the 2012 season. Last week was their first opening day win in 3 years so that's a good sign for them but they haven't established themselves yet nor have the Cowboys. Bill Parcells made the comment you are what your record says you are when he took over the Cowboys in 2003. He was referring to the Cowboys three straight 5-11 seasons so we as fans associate that term with the Cowboys. When a team goes 5-11 three consecutive seasons that validates they're a 5-11 team. When something becomes consistent it is what it is until you prove otherwise. The Cowboys have gone longer than KC without a winning season or playoff appearance. The Cowboys have been mediocre for 3 straight seasons they're 2 games below 500 over that period.

It's hard to take much from last weeks opening day win over the Giants seeing that the Cowboys opened up last season with a win over them and still ended up going 8-8. Sundays game vs KC is a key game because if the Cowboys win it will break a trend we've been seeing. If they lose they'll be off to another up and down start. The Cowboys haven't gotten off to a 2-0 start since 09 and that start led to an 11-5 season and the Cowboys first playoff win in 13 years. Sundays game is an important game for the teams confidence. If the Cowboys are going to break this discouraging up and down cycle we've been seeing the past few seasons they need to win on Sunday. If they're going to establish themselves as a "good" team and things are going to be "different" this season they have to start stringing wins together.

I thought we started 1-1 in 2009, with a loss to the Giants in week 2 opening the stadium?

Slaughter us, huh. I hope that city has enough psychologists on call after the game.

Nothing there seems unreasonable to me, except the spelling of Witten's name.

I guess Cowboys scoring 13, 10, 17 is reasonable with the talent we have on offense? Having Dunbar and Waters in the mix too. Right....

Heading into week 2 vs Seattle last season you predicted the defense primarily Ware would be all over Russell Wilson and the Cowboys would pound Seattle. Hopefully you're as wrong about this prediction as you were about the Seattle game.

Not my prediction. KC Forum prediction.

Not saying it's what I expect, but I have no problem with those predictions. They're certainly no more out there than things we commonly see on this board.

My bad we did the Cowboys got off to an up and down start that season starting out 2-2. The week 5 game vs KC was the turning point of the season.

Okay I see. Predictions like that usually backfire you found that out in week 2 last season. FAN forum predictions like that are almost always the kiss of death at least they are on this forum.

Cowboys are a far better team on paper. However, Chiefs are improved, playing at home and probably be incredibly jacked to play the team with the star on it's helmet.

Cowboys 27 Chiefs 21

My thoughts are who cares. They are solid on defensive. I question their offensive. We should win, however we barely won last week while winning the turnover battle by five.




Hold your laughter.

I was just on their forum and alot, almost all of them think they already have this in the bag. "As long as Dez, Austin, and Witten are contained we're good". Good luck with that. Hali and Houston are god's in their eyes, Albert will man handle Demarcus, Murray is trash, our defense is lackluster, and Romo will give them turnovers.

They really do think they're playing the Jags again. Let's break down the advantages.

QB: Dallas by a landslide.
WR: Dallas, easily.
RB: Chiefs
Oline: Same, i would say.
Dline: Chiefs by a bit.
Secondary: Chiefs
Linebackers: Dallas

Offense: Dallas by landslide
Defense: Chiefs for now

It'll be a close game but I would be shocked if we didn't win. They're offense can't keep up with ours with A.Smith at the helm; they're defense is not gonna contain us like they did the Jags.

Prediction:
Dallas: 28
Chiefs: 17

Dallas puts the dagger with under 5min's left in the game.

They beat the Jaguars. Come on people. I don't underestimate them by any means but, we played a two time Superbowl winning team in OUR division and won. That's something to applaud. I'm sure The Cowboys have plenty of mistakes to fix but, I saw more positive than negative last game.

I'm really hoping we win this one. I live in Chefs country and I've been getting crap all week about Chefs this Chefs that. I remind them about 2009 and Miles Austin but doesn't do any good....lol. Hopefully we can pull this one out! Gonna be difficult at Arrowhead and it's their home opener.

Don't be shocked if Dallas loses, 1)It's the NFL and you know the saying "Any given Sunday" and 2) KC is most likely a payoff team this year in the AFC and they are at home in a very tough place to play for the opposing teams

I'd like to think that at this point everyone pretty much realizes that no game is a given and any team could take an L any week, but let's not go nuts here pumping up the Chiefs. What have they done to make ANYONE think that they're "most likely a playoff team this year in the AFC"?? Gimme a break guy.

They won a pathetic grand total of 2 games last year, got rid of their coach, then got fat Andy and Alex Smith and all the sudden they're a likely playoff team? Please.

Hype - the great equalizer until game-time.

The bottom line is, I hope our oline is finally ready to step up because you know Romo's ribs are going to be a target.

POST OF THE YEAR RIGHT HERE, FOLKS. Alot of guys on here sure as hell are drinking fat Andy's kool-aid. He's a good coach, but he ain't no second coming of Lombardi or Landry.

Andy's a good coach and he will build his team like a classic Philly team, solid defense, strong running game and short passing game. The defense is solid from top to bottom, Jamaal Charles is better than a Deuce Staley. Bowe is better than the Freddie mitchels and other trash he had in Philly. He's lacking the McNabb he will get a similar QB next yr.

They won't win tomorrow because Alex will have to out duel Romo and that ain't happening.
