Ok, you want to bet me that Rolondo leads the Cowboys in tackles this year for $10 right?

Then you want to do a sig bet that the The Cowboys will be better than 8-8 at the end of the season? Ok, I will take that one too. I think they will be worse than 8-8.


Good, the bets are on...good luck.

If McClain can get his feet under him before this game, I'd be a lot more optimistic. A hard hit or two on Kaep to start the game would definitely encourage them to throw the ball, which is not his strong suit.

Aldon out would be big, his talent on the field is inversely proportional to his lack of common sense off the field. But who knows, the DA basically dropped everything, which imo was borderline injustice. We'll see what the league does, but with the backlash on the Ray Rice scandal, Aldon might not get off so easy.

They still have Justin Smith and Willis in the front 7, a lot of young guys that are developing, and Eric Reid and Ward at safety. Bowman out is huge of course.Their corners are pretty weak, talent wise.

Our OL should be able to handle their front 7, which would definitely give us a leg up. They aren't strong on the interior D right now, Willis will probably lead team in tackles, but it also means there should be a relatively clean pocket for Romo to step up into, and I'm confident Dez/our passing attack can exploit their secondary and we can establish somewhat of a run game against their undermanned front 7.

They have some weapons on offense but it's week 1, I think their offense will struggle to get their weapons involved, and I expect a few miscues which could lead to some turnovers. If we win the TO battle and can get a lead early, I think we'll win this game. We match up pretty well against them. They aren't an offensive powerhouse and their D is weaker than normal and inexperienced.

I'm going to say something like 23-17

Well thought out, but I think their running game well give Dallas fits, which will make Kap more effective. I think Dallas can win a game similar to the Denver game, but not that many points.

More like 38-31.

What's your prediction since your so sure Dallas isn't winning

So I take it you don't want to bet money? How about we do a sig bet. I will take SF +7 and that should be a steal to you since you think Dallas will win by 14 or more points.

Again you still won't give a prediction. It's not about money just asking a question that you seem to be avoiding

Because you just want something to talk about it and I just want to bet. SF is clealry the better team this year and it's not even remotely debateable. I see SF winning the game. At +7 I think they are a lock.

It's pretty pathetic that a Dallas Cowboy fan will bet against them! I would rather debate a troll...but, then again, maybe I am! smh

You're the same guy who said the Cowboys would miss the playoffs, when I confronted you about betting your money.

I have never made or accepted a money bet on this forum. Prove it if I did.

Also, I may have said that the Cowboys will miss the playoffs. I think they will...but if they do, the other teams in the NFCE better work for the wins, because I think it won't be easy this time.

I didn't say you accepted a money bet, I said that I challenged you to put down money on the Cowboys making the playoffs, and after that you stated that the Cowboys would miss the playoffs.

The Cowboy will only miss the playoffs if they don't win the NFC-E.

But, they might sneak in as a wild card and win the whole damn thing! SB....! So, that is why I never count out the chances of the Dallas Cowboys.

The 49ers just lost defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey for the season with a torn bicep. Aldon Smith is about to get suspended. Navarro Bowman is rehabbing from blowing out his knee in the NFC championship game.

Combine that with the absences of Lawrence and Spencer in Week 1.....

These offenses might score a combined 100 points that afternoon.

You're kidding me. Coach em up Marinelli.

Because I replied to your post that said Dallas would win by at least 14 which is just laughable to me. All you want to do is talk. When I ask you to back it up, you just talk some more. You aren't betting because you KNOW you would lose. All talk and no action!

Or maybe he's not betting because his principles are more refined than yours. A strong belief or opinion doesn't require a wager.

Don't get your hopes up. I learned this the past few seasons. I am expecting a blowout loss.

I am not. San Francisco is not designed to blow out anyone.

I expect a loss, but it will likely come from an unfortunate coaching decision.
