Our $108 million runningback better get it done in New England, this is the kind of game we need him at his best for.
They've got the early game and by the time this game kicks off, they'll know the results and whether this game is for the lead or to stay tied for it.
I firmly believe this team needs pressure to perform at it's best and they're probably assuming the Eagles have the easier schedule from here on out, just as we are.
So, which is the stronger motivation, as if one were needed facing the Patriots at home with a 20 game win streak. The chance to move into first or not to fall a game back?
Motivations are funny little things, as I've discovered, but the fear of loss (pain) trumps the desire to win (gain) when the chips are really down. When that extra effort is required, when it's all on the line, I think the fear of falling behind the Eagles is the stronger motivator and if they should beat the Seahawks, I would be all over that if I were a coach. I believe they will fight harder to stay even than to get ahead.

Lol yea. Should definitely be pulling for Philly to lose.Lol. Wut?
It's better for us if both team lose than if both teams win.
Our game is a non conference game vs Eagles game being a conference game.
If the Cowboys need other teams to win or lose as motivation, then then team is finished. They may as well pack their and forfeit the season. They are done.They've got the early game and by the time this game kicks off, they'll know the results and whether this game is for the lead or to stay tied for it.

Wow, what a stretch and don't believe this voodoo team needs pressure from the Eagles conspiracy theory. Either way, I'll never root for the Eagirls ever.They've got the early game and by the time this game kicks off, they'll know the results and whether this game is for the lead or to stay tied for it.

Who said NE doesn't need some fear, you don't think Belichick pushes that button? They're so used to making the playoffs and lack of competition in the division, he has to use motivational tactics. Part of Belichick's fear is the fear of embarrassment in front of the team and he'll use that on anyone.So, please explain the success of NE despite the lack of competition in the AFC East? Why does Dallas need fear to succeed while NE does not?
I know, ron, easier said than done. I can talk about that now because I haven't seen them on the field. Then the bile begins to creep up, the BP goes up and a deep seething distaste for anything PA related steps in.I just can't do that CC.
