What's with the Green Bay overhype?

[plasticman]

Love has been way better then Hurts this season but okay. He has been better then Stafford this season too.

One of my favorite rock bands, Nazareth, has a hit song about the rivalry between the Eagles and Packers quarterbacks...

.......Love Hurts......yuk, yuk....

We better be able to contain boobie or it will be a long day.

Keep hearing on podcasts and national shows about how Dallas should be worried about Green Bay.

The same team that gave up 30 to Carolina, which scored 0 points their final two games? The same team that lost to Tampa by 14 at home and to the Giants the week before? Those all came after those “monster” wins over Detroit and KC.

This team (Dallas) can’t overlook anybody, but I’m not getting the “scary” vibes from the Packers.

they are 7-3 in their last 10. been getting better over the last few weeks. they been averaging about 119 yards rushing over the past three games. Love was second to Dak in TDs. so yeah, expect that. not surprised.

they have had bad losses. we have had bad losses. doesn't matter. its playoffs. everyone is 0-0. seeding doesn't matter (except you get home game). you just have to win the game that's in front of you and anything can happen. remember, Dallas was #1 seed and lost a home game to the giants. the same giants went on to win the superbowl against a 19-0 patriots team.

And how long since they last face GB in the playoffs. With a Garrett led team at that?

The last time was during the 2016 season at home when Aaron Rodgers pulled the rug out from under us in the final seconds. Our defense/pass rush has to step up in the playoffs. We have to get the QB on the ground and not allow them to extend plays.

In the playoffs you have to be worried about everyone. It’s do or die. The Cowboys haven’t had much postseason success against Green Bay.

That means nothing this year. The Cowboys are undefeated at home and that means nothing for this game as well. Everyone is 0-0

 

[KJJ]

Agree.

Also, poor game plans and turnovers will get us beat.

GB could try to take away our passing game. Which is CD. So look for him to be doubled. A lot of short zones. See the Cards game.

We can't run either.

So I am not taking anything for granted.

it's not like we beat a lot of winning teams.

Penalties could also get us beat. I wouldn’t look back at the Cards game, that was in week 3 before we opened up the offense. We’ve gotten Cooks more involved. However, Gallop has completely disappeared.

.....MM and cowboys should know. Any team in playoffs is there for reason.

They are good, period. Gotta bring your "A" game at home.

Should be fun watch. I dont know what to expect. I will say this though.

Dallas is the better team. Gotta show up though.

Why? Mostly because of AR and... a few zebra laundry mishaps along the way.

Tolbert can fill his roll unless Gallup cranks it up for the PO run.

It’s do or die in the playoffs you can’t take any team for granted regardless the QB. The laundry mishaps are due to being undisciplined. We lead the league in that category.

Don't you think that 25+ years of the Cowboys being "frauds", falling short and not delivering has nothing to do wth this?
As much as some of you hate to admit, Jerry Jones, despite "meaning well" is a bad GM. I dont think any other franchise in the entire league would have kept him for this long. But as he has said it himfself, "he cant/wont fire himself"

This franchise is HIS toy, and he has this circus going on.
I would be more surprised if the Cowboys come out with a dominating win over the packers than a loss

I know it sucks that the pre snap penalties keep bogging us down on both sides of the ball. Love can carve up this defense if they are willing to chance it. We have made numerous other lesser qb's to look all pro in the past. I am not of the type to believe we are gonna have a cake walk against GB. We can win but our A team has to be willing to play. Glad AR is no longer a viable piece of the equation though.
