We can't assume the T-day game will be easy

[CanadianCowboysFan]

We might be due to lose but so are they

 

[mrmojo]

Throw the records out literally when these 2 teams meet. Having said that i still think Cousins gives us a couple, he reminds me of Young or Favre in that I always knew they would make an ill advised throw against us along the way.

 

[Nexx]

Why do fans think we're going to roll through the schedule blowing everyone out?

This is the NFL, and the best of the best are found on every team. And other teams are trying to win too.

we do have the best point margin in the league

 

[LucaBrasi]

As a fan, I never presume easy victory. One thing this team appears to have done well, among many, is focusing on each week.

Actually, looking at the rest of the schedule, there isn't 1 game remaining that could be considered easy.

NFCE games are NEVER easy

 

[AbeBeta]

Please list the names of those that think this game will be easy.

Throw out the records when these two teams play.

Any NFC East game is competitive.

 

[jazzcat22]

Exactly right.

Team has won 9 in a row and odds are that it's due to lose.

May not be this week, but I'm looking for a close game.

I will take the win against the Commanders, and if we do get that loss, let it be at Vikings. Then we can rebound to beat the Giants.
I will take that in a split second and ask no questions...just smile....

Just win the Vikings game and not worry about a rebound game against the Giants.

 

[BrassCowboy]

It's the first real test!

Well if they keep treating every game as a real test, we can keep this streak going

 

[JJHLH1]

Cousins is on fire right now and they have a fleet of talented receivers. Our secondary will be tested big time. How they hold up will go a long way towards deciding who wins the East.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

No one should think this is a easy game. I don't think anyone does. It could be a shootout and if its a shootout its going to come down to what team gets a stop first.

 

[jazzcat22]

Our DL and pass rush must find some life in this game. Get not only better pressure, but get those sacks.
Get those hits and knockdowns and hurries. Take Cousins out of his comfort zone.

Time for the pass rush to step up and give us some help in that part of the game.

I firmly believe that we will beat the Skins on turkey day but I don't think it will be as easy as some have posted. They just beat up the Packers last night pretty bad. They hate us and they will try and ruin our season which is what each of us try our best to do every year.

So let's be ready for a challenging game. I predict Cowboys 27 - Deadskins 21.

expect a total war.
they will follow the pittsburgh/ravens blueprint - blitz like crazy, bombs away on O.

 

[JohnsKey19]

A divisional game against a hot opponent easy? Actually the fact that they are hot doesn't even matter. This would be a dicey game even if they were on a 4 game losing streak.

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

Packers results are somewhat skewed since They're giving up about 40 ppg in their losing streak They're truly decimated defensively but to their credit, they have weapons and they can get things going offensively.

The OP's statement should be obvious due to the nature of the rivalry. We rarely sweep them even in good years so I expect a tough game.

I think our rush O matches up well with them. On offense, they have the type of skill that can cause us issues especially with Mo out. Crowder, Garcon, Jackson, Reed will be a handful. At the same time they're running into a red hot team who's played tougher competition. We're also much improved from our week 2 win. Pound them, control the clock. We'll need our A game defensively for sure.

There are no easy games left on the schedule, even Tampa Bay deserves some respect after knocking off KC yesterday.
