Thursday night is a game we have waited decades for

[MRV52]

Final may be 41-40.

Maybe but I think we hold them to 23.

Not a chance. With no pass rush, you're not holding Jackson, Jordan, Davis, Garcon, and Crowder to 23 points in a perfect indoor environment.

Washington will hit at least 31. Can Dallas score at least 32?

We are averaging only 18.7 pts a game against, which is 8th in the league. They are not hanging 30 on us. Washington still has 3rd Cousin at the helm and frankly he can screw a game just as easily as he can win one.

 

[Dale]

Should be an electric atmosphere. It's good to see this rivalry mean something again.

 

[JohnnyTheFox]

Why all the hate for Cousins? He isn't bad by any stretch. If we give him time to throw{which we probably will}they will likely put up a lot of points. Im concerned about this game, especially after watching them crush GB last night.

The travel schedule for the Skins is really tough. Have to go to Dallas after a late Sunday game and play on Thursday. But I think these teams are easily 1-2 in the division.

I'm so broken up over it.

 

[Broges74]

I think the Skins are going to put up 28+ pts. We can score 29+ but man do we miss Mo for this game.

 

[mrmojo]

Off topic, but we dont have the usual 10 day rest after Thanksgving? A tough stretch, if we can win one of he next two we will be sitting pretty. I wonder why the NFL penalized us like that?

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

We have owned them for so long, they really are meaningless to me.

Although I still wonder how we blew that game in 1984 when the division was ours with a win, and we choked away a 21-6 lead.

 

[gimmesix]

I'm 29. I don't care about the skins because of the reason you stated.

It would be nice to get the rivalry going though.

No, I'd much rather just see us dominant the Skins.

happened to us in 2007 too, we had to play the Packers at home a week after US Thanksgiving

We've gone against some terrible offenses. Our HEALTHY defense made plays against Washington, but we still gave up 436 yards. And it was Barry Church, who isnt playing, that got that INT in the endzone. That beat up secondary got lit up by Pittsburgh and gave up 30. Id be pleasantly surprised if we held them under 27.

Well at least we get 10 days before we head to NY to play the Giants.

how will their crap defence stop us?

The Cowboys are a great team this year. Dak/Zeke/Dez, the o-line, a team that doesn't beat itself, big time props and nothing but credit to how well the Cowboys have played. Easily the best Cowboys team since 1995.

The Commanders are finally playing as well as they should be playing. Beating down a depleted team at home in prime time is what a good team should do.

I can't think of the last time both teams had played 10 games and had 3 or fewer losses. You guys have taken care of business so this isn't nearly the must win game it is for the Cowboys as it is the Commanders, but still plenty on the line.

I am really pumped and looking forward to a classic.

Here is to the rivalry

They don't play Thursday night. Kickoff is at 3:30. I didn't want you missing the game.

 

[Rob-G]

They wont

 

[fifaguy]

This is not the game I been waiting decades for .I been waiting decades for the Super Bowl.

This is the SB....for the Commanders....

 

[Clarkson]

I'm so broken up over it.

I just feel really, really bad for them. I'm worried they may not play well

How exactly is your avg per game a better indicator when we beat that avg by 10 points when Kirk had probably his worst game of the season?

don't we play Minn next, who plays Det on Thanksgiving? If so, then our opponent is in the same boat as us with 7 days rest between games.
