Weekly worried about this game

[Cydios]

Well here's another week where I'll post and "I'm worried about ____" So every time I post this we win. So I'll hold true to tradition.

Here's what I'm worried about, Dallas isn't great vs the run.. How about a running QB? Dallas biggest challenge is handling a QB who can run it. Dallas hasn't faced that this year. I think it's going to come down to Parsons being able to run down Mahomes. This is the test.

Here are the agile QBs
Patrick Mahomes
Russel Wilson
Lamar Jackson
Kyler Murray

Arguably
Jalen Hurts
Daniel Jones

Now you jinxed it by saying we win when you do this,

....quite the contrary, Mahomes is not run threat. Hurts, Lamar, Murray..etc. Those Cats have wheels.

Mahomes is more an extend the play threat than a running threat. But Parsons giving chase is still a good idea.

Cowboys win this game in a shootout... 37-30

It's okay to be uncertain about the outcome of the game. If the Cowboys weren't worried then why are they practicing?

Let's make no mistake, a team that has gone to the past two Super Bowls with elite talent in many places certainly have the ability to increase their level of play at the right time.

With a 6-4 record there is no better time, no better place and no better opponent with which the Chiefs can send the league a message.

With the absence of T-Law, Urban, Gallimore and Gregory from the D-line as well as the situation along the offensive line, the Cowboys are not as strong as we would hope.

The Chief's offense is obviously trending up, the fans at Arrowhead stadium would thoroughly enjoy a Cowboys defeat and, most importantly, the Chief's consider this a "must win" game. We will see the best effort from the two-time defending AFC conference champions.

And that's exactly why the game is just as important to the Cowboys who are going to win. This game will be the evidence that the Dallas Cowboys are truly for real.

And the stadium fans? I think this Cowboys team has a personality that truly enjoys being the bad guys.

They don't need to increase their level of play. They just need to play like they did against the Raiders last week.

Cats have paws...not wheels.

Parsons will get after him like if someone stole his lunch...or his TV.

That's messed up! KC...they don't know the tornado coming their way...no turning back.

Cue #52

How odd. You say, "Dallas hasn't faced [a running QB] this year" in the same post where you list two QBs Dallas has faced this year. Hurts ran 9 times for 36 yards against us. Jones ran 3 times and got his clock cleaned on the 3rd one.

Meanwhile, Mahomes is averaging 3.7 runs for 23 yards per game. And that's the most he's ever averaged. That is not a running QB. Both Jones and Hurts run for significantly more yards per game than Mahomes.

There are lots of reasons to be scared of KC's offense, but Mahomes being a running QB is well down the list.

I think that is where they increased their level of play. Actually, the Raiders are the only team they have dominated this season that didn't come from the NFC East.
