Little things can matter, like the Giants were home last game, Dallas had to travel to Minnesota.

Bit more fatigue for Dallas, and they also have to forget about the blowout against the Vikes, not get overconfident....

That’s true. But the giants spend Wednesday traveling to Dallas meanwhile Dallas gets to sleep in their own beds

true but being it is a short week I think it is easier to refocus on the upcoming game. McCarthy watched tape on the plan ride home and the next day they were on NY.

Golladay can still play. Play team defense and they win.

Here’s what worries me most about this game….

This is the second straight year we are a heavy favorite, and the league is not going to want a blowout.

In a time when there’s some truly awful officiating, last years game was especially terrible. It was a little too much to overcome.

This is all true The league doesn't want to blow out on Thanksgiving.

You can count on the fact they will have the officials doing their best to keep things close and manipulate the game for maximum profit.

In other words they don't want anybody turning the game off because it's not competitive.

They don't mind putting Det on thanksgiving and they have been on the wrong side of several blowouts. League may not like seeing blowouts but that is between the 2 teams playing.

Speaking of that, did everyone have the network switch from the Dallas game to the Bengals game in the 3rd quarter?

What do you bet that if Dallas had been on the receiving end of the blowout they would have stayed until the bitter end?

:rolleyes:

I hate moaning about the refs and I sound ridiculous to myself when I mention conspiracy theory, but I’ve seen it happen too many times.

They won’t let this get out of hand. Not early anyway…and when you give an inferior team life….

In the last 6 years they got blown out once by the Texans All the rest of the games they lost by no more than a touchdown.

Sometimes things get out of hand and even the refs can't manipulate it back under control for the league.

Kind of like our game against Minnesota They tried to keep us from kicking a field goal before halftime.

But he was too good and kicked it twice at 60 yards and squashed their best efforts

Hey brother there's no conspiracy theory The owners are in on this it's about making maximum profit.

When people turn the television off or change channels because the game is not competitive and someone's getting blown out people are losing money.

This stopped being a legitimate sport a long time ago it is the entertainment business

There are bean counters just like in every other business watching the bottom line I guarantee they know how many people shut their televisions off comparatively between a 3pt. 7 pt or 10pt lead by one team.

The league uses the referees to manipulate the games for maximum profit it's all about the money.

It's no conspiracy theory it's just a business practice that they have adopted that works
