Up over 75% now. Bookies must be lickin their chops. Ha

This is why the line is always out of whack locally on Cowboys.

I think we come up a little short against the Rams unfortunately.

Considering that I predicted 5-11 in training camp, playing in the Divisional round is already house money. Was a great season regardless of the outcome.

I voted for the Rams as if I was putting money down for a bet. I didn't go with my heart. I think Dallas can win tomorrow I just don't know if they will. the teams are about equal with maybe an edge to the Cowboys as far as momentum and health. But what scares me is the winning a road playoff game with this young team. So I think it's 50/50 on who can win so I would have to say the Rams have the homefield advantage and that may be the difference. But don't get me wrong I am hard core rooting for the Cowboys.

If we do lose this game tomorrow and we very well might not lose. I can see us winning. But if we lose I will say that this season has been a successful season. considering we were 3-5 and dead in the water. Winning the division, making the playoffs and winning a playoff game makes this a winning season. And watch Dallas is going to be a team to be reckoned with the next 3-5 years with this talent that we have.

But back to tomorrow, Dallas wins 27-24 if Dallas doesn't turn the ball over. If Dallas turns the ball over we lose 35-17. If they get the momentum at any time I'm scared they can run away with it. So basically I have no idea who's going to win. My heart says Dallas but my logic says the rested Rams with home field advantage win. Such a confusing state of mind right now. Where's my psychotropic medication?

The weather will be a factor. This game is going to be close and it’s going to come down to which defense can get after the QB.

I feel like this is a game where we are gonna see Dak run a bit more IMO.

I believe the game will come down to penalties. If we win the penalty game especially on offense and don’t put ourselves in 2nd or 3rd and long we will win the game. We will get at least one turnover maybe two. Defense needs to score at least once. If the Boys shoot for par rather than birdie this game will be simplified and much easier to win.

they beat the number 1 rushing offense twice, but our defense is better than seattles. should be close with an advantage for the rams.

I have ZERO faith in Jason Garrett. None whatsoever.

In games of this magnitude the little things within game management count, and that's where Garrett fails miserably.

We got a peek of his shortcomings last week when he decided to attempt a 58 yard FG in a tightly contested defensive battle; but luckily the team was able to survive and overcome.

I think he'll make 3 or 4 critical coaching errors in keys moments tomorrow night, because that's what he does, and it'll leave Cowboys Nation moaning and groaning and wondering "what if" yet again.

My guess is he'll probably waste a timeout challenging a play that was painfully obvious; he'll get conservative once we cross midfield on a key drive and seemingly settle for a FG attempt which Maher will likely shank; and he'll decide to punt in plus-territory on 4th and 2 or shorter. These are the coaching errors that I think he'll make. The common theme from most of his errors is "conservative". Garrett's conservative by nature therefore I think he'll revert to what's natural for him, which is playing things nice and safe.

Scared money don't make money.

I rewatched the 92 NFC championship game last night and I think this game is going to play out
similarly.

I don’t subscribe to the notion that the 58 yard attempt was a bad move. BM has shown the ability to hit them. I mean before that miss he was what 6-6 beyond 50+? With a long of 62. I’ll take those odds all day. He hits it and everyone is calling it a great call and BM is money blah, blah, blah.

I thought it was a terrible decision in the moment.

And no, if Maher made the kick I wouldn't say it was a great call. I'd say it was a bad decision that we got away with.

Please put aside your Cowboys Fan Loyalty, and Bias.
Say your some moron from Canada, and you happened to be in Vegas...
Totally unbiased opinions here guys and gals.
Edit.. not everyone from Canada is a moron.

Thanks for qualifying that, eh. :D

Pretending I'm in a casino and I know nothing about football except the history of the Garrett Era in post season, I'd wager Lambs to win on coaching/play calls/clock management alone and being at home. Cowboys FG kicker on grass is not a confidence builder. Neither is cowboys special teams.

Now, that being said, I think our personnel is outright superior to the Lambs as a "whole unit," and with the proper coach and play calls to exploit the Lambs would win the game outright despite some of our shortcomings. For example we already saw #10 can do on returns but he hasn't been utilized for that all year which is typical. In short I think our coaches/game planning are the weak link.

The most interesting game of the weekend, no question. Glaring stat, Rams have the worst run defense in the NFL this year (5.1 ypr), not what you need going into this one.
LA scores late but Fired up Cowboys win 22-18.
