This is your classic trap game. Coming off 2 wins one of them being a big divisional win. Everyone saying the Cowboys should win. Everyone saying how good the team is. Playing a 1-2 team at home. In past years, this would be a loss. Is THIS team different? This is a huge test for the Cowboys. Time to show that this team is different.

Great post!! Washington has nothing to lose, even though its still earlier in the season if that makes sense. Washington players don't have to worry about the stress of playing in front of their own crowd and hearing the boos all game.

I believe we will win this game but if we blow them out, i believe Rivera will be fired.

I don't think so, with the starting quarterback out everyone is
rallying around Rush, I think they want to keep this good thing going. And there's no way that this defense is going to ease up, they're hungry and mean. This is a double digit win:flagwave:

The Washington red football Commander skins team is going down :flagwave:

The betting line opened Cowboys -3 which shows Vegas thinks the same.
Wouldn't be surprised if Cowboys start slow and are down by half-time. But expect them to get going in the second half for the win.
Close game.

Yes this is the classic trap game coming up. Just as the Cowboys were never as bad as people were saying when the Bucs beat them, we are probably not as good as the hype in some the media suggests. More important, we are getting a team with its back against the wall with a QB that will be playing for his career. Washington has a good D and they have playmakers that always seem to manage to have career days against us. Finally, each game with Rush means more game tape.

Not saying the Cowboys will lose, but acknowledging this game has enough factors to consider it a trap game.

Washington will be in desperation mode. They will come out swinging to try and get us on our heels.

But if there is one thing this Dallas team has consistently done well— it’s pound the rest of the NFCE.

I think the pass rush works wonders again- and after a slow start, Dallas pulls away and gets a decisive victory. I think we see the Dallas D force 2+ turnovers on Sunday

Dallas 27
Wash 13

This game will be close. Washington has the defensive line to give our offensive linemen problems. Wentz has talent at the Wide Receiver position to throw to. I expect Washington to throw deep and take some chances.

Broaddus says the Cowboys can’t lose. That’s not good. He’s usually wearing.

It has the potential to be. But this group of players has to know that. Most of them played San Fransisco last year.

That first loss we had, may end up being the best thing that happened to this team. They are making the plays they need to win instead of lucking into it. That's what the Giants are doing this year. And they've been pretty good at doing it.

You are forgetting one thing. We have Cooper Rush.

Who the hell is talking about how good this team is? They are a FG in the final seconds away from going into overtime and potentially being 1-2.

What you say when you have Wentz next.

This team has potential.

The defense is what has helped this team win, and they will only get better as a team, as the year progresses, imo.

Every division game is trap game mode, especially without our starting QB. It's 4 games in so yea they will be feisty as they should and so should we

I really believed last week against the Giants was the trap game. There is absolutely no way Wentzie will avoid Dallas's pass rush. He'll be sacked numerous of times like an old potato yet once again.
