Ehhh, I lean towards no. Eagles have won 3 games in a row, and the combined record of those 3 teams (Zona, LAC, NYG) is 3-12. I mean, I think its moreso their opponents the last 3 weeks have been bad than the Eagles are good. But wins are wins. I think we beat them in Philly in a few weeks. Wentz looks to be the real deal, though. He's surpassed Dak by a country mile. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Dolphins OL coach Chris Foerster is likely to be fired now that a video has emerged of him snorting a white powder... He was our former OL coach under Shanahan. I find this interesting because while the Shanahans were here, there were lots of rumors that Kyle and his close buddies on the coaching staff liked to party and do things like this. I can't be the only one who remembers these rumors, and now Foerster gets busted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyHolt Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 (edited) Foerster saying he has to go to a meeting now... makes it that much worse. Licking his finger is the icing on the cake. Since the Dolphins run game suuuuuucks, I think he'll get reprimanded. That is not what the league wants you to see.

Riggo-toni Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 @PokerPacker, I would just like to take this moment to thank Aaron Rodgers for breaking the Cowboys fans' hearts! It made our bye week fun! 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was listening to NFL network on Sirius and the host said that he, another analyst, and a former head coach ranked the NFC E QBs. The consensus was that Cousins was the best and that Eli was the worst. I don't know who I think is better out of Dak and Carson, but both are studs... Eesh, talking kindly of our rivals feels like it doesn't belong in the Positive Thread. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napredskins1 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I want to go to the Dallas game but tickets are selling for $200 upper deck. Do the tickets go down in price as it gets closer to the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their D line is making every QB uncomfortable and Wentz throws dart after dart after dart on 3rd downs, typically evading the rush before hand like a magician.

I think the real test for the Skins is going to be going into Philadelphia and placing our D against their D. We win and we are for real and everyone in the league knows it. On another note anyone who thinks Elliott being suspended for 6 games is going to slow the Cowpukes is wrong. Alfred Morris in the few touches he has had off the bench has been a beast. He is going to be fresh. BUT their D is not as stout as the Iggles and the Skins this year IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We saw first hand how magically elusive he is, but his accuracy is still questionable; I believe he was 50% last night. No doubt that their Dline is solid, but having four turnovers in two games which result in your team's possession inside the 10 is pretty lucky. Did you see the Jonathan Stewart's complete whiff on a screen pass which dropped right into the defenders arms? This wasn't due to pressure. Remember Samaje's fumble? I'm not saying the turnovers that they're causing were all luck, but the ball has bounced their way early this season and I'd like to see how they fare vs a good team when they don't get that luck. (We all now know there's nothing impressive about them beating up the Giants, Chargers, and Cardinals.) 36 minutes ago, skinsmania123 said: On another note anyone who thinks Elliott being suspended for 6 games is going to slow the Cowpukes is wrong.

All I was saying is that in the few touches I have seen Morris get this year he has been explosive. And he will be fresh. The Pokes have lost players on offense AND defense. But they are not out of it. Their O line is NOT the reason they are losing IMO at all. The reason is the there secondary in general which has really fallen apart in games giving up a lot of yardage.

BatteredFanSyndrome Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Yeah, Alfred Morris is not scaring me in the least. Seems like a great dude and I'm happy for him that he can stay on a roster and set himself up nice for life. But I'll face a fresh Morris vs. any version of Zeke everyday of the week.

Alf had one long run in week 1, but he hasn't done much since; he hasn't had opportunities. Between losing half of their D and 2/5 of their OL, they have regressed. Still, a quality team with a good gameplan, but not what they were last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Without Zeke, the Cowboys entire offense changes. Defenses don't have to respect the run and can spread out to cover the receivers(who honestly aren't that good, Bryant is declining, Witten is like 80 now, their best receiver is Cole Beasley). The read option doesn't work as well, neither does play action, and you'll likely see Dak regress into being the average QB he really is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with every point you made except I think Morris has been underrated and he is going to bail out Prescott somewhat who in actuality is an average QB as you point out. Beasley is their best option at WR and I have watched Prescott overthrow him numerous times this season. Witten needs to join Romo in the broadcast booth.

Taylorcooley1 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I just wanted to get everyone's thoughts on where they believe we will be sitting by week 11...vs niners at philthy vs dallass at seachickens vs Vikings at saints...if our defense continues to play like a top ten defense my prediction is 3-3..if we're hot 4-2...two losses are unfortunately division losses..we can go into Seattle and hang..see my post about our o lines performance in the more ..louder environment arrowhead..and I think we can beat the Vikings and saints..so we go 4-2 hopefully, and we're sitting at 6-4..5-6 at the worst.
