Didn't the rams have their backup playing in the infamous 2008 loss? But then again we had Brad Johnson. The Cowboys should roll .......may be through the air this week because the Rams have a nice defensive front.

Romo gets hurt
so does Murray

than what ?

Then one goes with the backups as always. Randle showed up well and Weeden is adequate in a reduced route passing game.

Dunbar is the change of pace and the receivers are full up.

The Rams are still suspect at stopping the run.

I'm sorry Hos, but this team has NO room to get cocky. We can play an arena league team and I will be worried.

However, for some weird reason, unlike past seasons I have confidence in our D. In fact I'm almost giddy with the force manning the middle, Ro. Plus, I always feel like we are going to get that crucial TO. Anybody else feel that way?

We can play an arena league team. .... worry too... I agree with that part. D developing swag. Takes more than 2 games. They've got to play one of those SF punctured lung games. One of those last play games against a formidable opponent.

The line has us giving a singular point. We aren't huge favorites here by any stretch. No reason to think our offensive line is going to pass block perfect for a road game, or that Romo is at full health for this.

only playoff teams can discuss "trap games"..we have been 8-8 for ever. You would think the effort would be there "if" there is a coach in the building.

Dallas can take 'nothing" for a "w" at this point. Play hard like it was the final game you will ever play and we will revisit down the road. 1995 has been some time now since Dallas was considered dominate.

My boy is married now and his wife is expecting . He was 5 months old when Dallas won it's last Super Bowl...."trap" my ***.....That's not a excuse anymore.

One point?!?! If I were a bettor, I'd be betting the whole enchilada on this one!

Watching the 30 minute Rams/Bucs recap and their DL either is stuffing the run and giving up a big run. I heard earlier today the Rams were great on 1st down not giving up a lot of yards but were extremely bad on 2nd down giving a lot of yards. Very Jekyll and Hyde.

Zac Stacey could give us issues running the ball. Brian Quick is a big WR and could give the defense some fits as well.

No excuse to lose this game fellas. Besides, Garrett's record against scrub teams is outstanding.

It's the teams above 500 he always loses against

Not a trap game. We aren't good enough to have those.

I wonder if Michael Sam is able to tell the team anything about the Rams that is useful. I would think so. Be nice to activate him for this game if it didn't require cutting somebody to do so.

Do we know for sure that they aren't playing their 2nd string QB this week?

Even THEY don't know who will be playing QB for them. Their 3rd stringer was actually pretty good last week and pulled out a W at end of game.

Their QB is down for the count. Their 2nd string QB missed last week, and no word yet on if he will be ready this week. They are down to their 3rd a QB, a 2nd year UDFA who looked pretty good last week.

Tavon Austin is out for the Rams too. On the season so far they have no passing TDs and only 1 rushing TD.

They are giving up 171 rushing yards per game so far.

We're dead in the water folks. Sitting ducks. A mark.

A chess player might declare zugswang.

Wave the white flags, support the French. Help us Obi Wan Kenobi, and all that jazz.


Well, CBS SPORTS Power Rankings. Rams #23, Dallas #26.
