Why this game with Philly is different...

[proline]

Barber, Jones, and Kosier are all healthy. (Was Newman dinged up last game, too?)

Brooking will not allow the team to quit.

Sensabaugh is playing great!

Jenkins is playing very well, and both he and Scandrick have more experience.

Joe D and the special teams are rockin'!

B. Dawkins is gone.

Carpenter is sacking the QB (oops, sorry! That doesn't belong on this list. That belongs on the "Signs that hell has frozen over" list.)

It's not December!

Anything else?

 

[Rampage]

Romo is protecting the ball better than ever

 

[twentytwo]

Miles Austin!

And I think Jason Garrett is calling a much better game right now. Sure, I haven't been completely happy with the run game the past couple of games, but I think he's done a great job of taking what the defenses are giving us.

The Eagles are inconsistent. We'll see which Mcflabb shows up. Raider loss or Gaint win Mcnabb.

The Eagles are inconsistent? WOW!

What worries me is...

Which Tomy Romo will show up? the one that makes great plays or chucks INTs?

Wich Flozell Adams will show up? The one that dominates all-pro DEs or the one that jumps the coaunt ant gets beat by sub-par defenders?

Which Terrence Newman will show up? The one that shuts down his WR or the one thaqt gets beat deep and misses tackles?

Which Nick Folk will show up? The one that kicks his way to a pro-bowl or the one that misses wide right?

Which Pattrick crayton will show up? The one that threatens to take a punt return to the house, or the one that muffs the punt giving opponents an easy scoring opportunity?

Should I go on....?

Nothing is automatic with this team and in this game.

The biggest tactical differences are

we have sensebaugh, mcbriar, buehler, kosier, felix in the lineup.

Our special teams can really matchup with theirs and make a huge difference.

Jenkins is playing very well as opposed to henry on the outside. I still like henry...but..

anyway, last year we had keith davis and anthony henry and we have upgraded.

We were missing kosier and adams was all kinds of beat up. The pressure on romo was a huge problem. We should do a better job with that, emphasis on should.

but we really matchup with them well. Will we win, dont know, but the mindset that they are worldbeaters and we should be lucky to get to play them is wrong.

Not sure what all that was. I was simply saying the Eagles are inconsistent. Which is an irrufutable fact.

They did lose to the Raiders....

The Eagles game could be a bit "Coming of age" for the new players on offense/defense/special teams. I hope they do not make the game bigger than it is and stay focused and maintain their consistent high level play.

 

[DallasDomination]

All I have to say is establish the running game...I would like to see more felix and Choice in this game. Not so much Barber, Philly always plays him hard. We need speedy shifty guys going off screens and short passes aswell.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

No more garbage in the locker room to distract everyone from the main goal.

You know how I feel about hope. I am saying Eagles are better until they prove otherwise. If the Boys could win this, I will have big **** eating griin

 

[HoosierCowboy]

all the pressure is on the eagles because they are at home

 

[YosemiteSam]

I don't think Barber is completely healthy.

 

[Timbo2st]

I disagree. Since the game is in Philly, the pressure is on the Cowboys.

 

[Zman5]

Another big difference is Jim Johnson(RIP) is no longer there. I don't care if they are still running the same defense, I don't think their defense is as good without him.

 

[DallasEast]

DeSean Jackson reminds me a lot of Santana Moss. If you allow Moss to get behind your defense, he'll eat you alike. If you can keep him in front of your safeties, he's very manageable. Jackson is the only Philly offensive threat who concerns me.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

How do you figure that? Home teams are expected to win. Road teams can consider it a bonus if they do.

 

[SLATEmosphere]

I just hope we don't get blown out and embarrassed.

They've got a pretty darn good TE now and still some more speed if Maclin is available.

When Jackson is crossing the field I don't know that we have anyone that can keep up with him, but I think we've got guys that would love the challenge and I know for sure Sensebaugh would love to catch him in the middle of the field.

However, in my opinion, the only we lose is if we turn the ball over a lot to their defense. Romo has been playing clean so I'm hopeful we can stay away from that but I'm not worried that they are just going to light us up.
