Turning our attention to Minnesota

[Avery]

... if we can't beat this team (regardless of Freeman or Ponder as both are awful), we don't deserve to win the division.

 

[TTexasTT]

Thats safe to say.

Even with Opie's horrendous game management we should still win

If we don't we are done

 

[Staubacher]

I have to work during that game and am glad. If they lose I don't wanna see it. I'll just get score updates. The game may be hard with all our players out. but we should win

 

[ScipioCowboy]

There are no must win games at this point in the season, but this game is extremely important. In all likelihood, the Cowboys will need it just to be .500 at the bye, 10 games into the season.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

We don't want to be 4-6 going into the bye. If we lose, I could see us going 6-10 and losing the division. If we win, I see us going at least 7-9 and winning the division.

 

[StarBoyz83]

Knowing this team they'll lose to the vikings and beat the saints lol if we lose both were done and its a possibility.

 

[MagicMan]

the Boys should win, its an up week......the week after is another down week with NO, then we are 5-5 at the bye. Right on schedule, like clockwork. Having said that, now watch Ponder be the second coming of Montana next week with this defense. LOL.

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

We have to win. I put a curse on the Vikings because my ex secretary's husband agreed to her not returning to work after her 1 year maternity leave and he is a Viking fan. I told her they would go 1-15 and so far I am on track.

 

[Picksix]

We'll beat Minnesota. Just like we've beaten every other bad team we've played. It might not be pretty, but we're not losing to Minnesota.

Gonna go out on a LiMB here and state the obvious this team will play down to the competition and keep them in the game. Dallas will probably get rattle early by the Dline and make it a huge struggle.

 

[Everlastingxxx]

The Cowboys defense will shutdown the Vikes and we can get back to coming up with niffy nicknames for the “no name defense”.

That's an old narrative. 3 of our 4 wins against bad teams this year were by 2 touchdowns or more.

We play up to good teams but still lose. We handle business against the patsies.

It's called hyperbole and it would not surprise me after a demoralizing loss

This team is a lot of things but they don't quit.

I have yet to see a game this season where they didnt fight. Now are they stupid and injury prone and disorganized and poorly head-coached? Yes!

But they don't fail to show up and play hard.
They never quit.

 

[BoysFan4ever]

I predict we get 10 turnovers & still only win by 3. Isn't that the Cowboy way?

Lately the Cowboy way is to get 10 turnovers and lose by 3.

LOL. Yea you're right.

We will demolish the Vikings at home. This game does not scare me what so ever. Cake walk. I'm thinking 38-6 type.

 

[cannonball44]

If Murray and Ware and wilcox all play we should dominate easily. But the long term effect of losing Waters is what im worried about.
