They can gerrymander the stats as much as they want (we all know that Brandt is on the Cowboys' Ring of Honor, right?) but I'd take Jared Goff over Dak Prescott any day of the week and twice on Saturday.

yeah, what to make of the cowboys... their claim to fame is beating the saints 13-10, then two weeks later they get whipped by the colts 0-23.

i keep hearing that the cowboys are on fire, scorching, no doubt due to their 8-1 record over their last 9, but weren't the texans also on fire, scorching, going 9-0, only to follow that up with a 2-3 record including a one-and-out in the postseason? weren't the bears on fire, scorching, going 9-1 to end the season, only to follow that up by going one-and-out in the postseason?

the cowboys are all about their defense, and trying to run the ball to death in an effort to shorten the game and keep opposing offenses off the field, they ranked 25th in first half pass ratio in 2018... thing is, they're not the '85 bears defense.

mcvay should be able to dial up offensive scoring against these guys, i just hope wade doesn't make their below average offense look the mahomes-led chiefs... personally i'd like to see the rams come out throwing a lot against these posers, which would most likely ensure more offensive possessions for the rams, and by extension more scoring opportunities... what i don't want to see is the rams playing into the cowboys hands by deciding they want to run the ball a bunch.

This is the type of game that McVay and Wade need to show their acumen. Both have had two weeks to develop a game plan, and players are as rested as they are ever going to be. This is why you play so hard for 17 weeks, to get things like home field AND a Bye. If the Rams take care of the ball and don’t give up big gash plays or special teams mess ups, I just don’t see how they can lose (even if Elliot has a good game). I do not believe Prescott can, or will beat them.

This is the time for this team and this staff to take the next step and move to an even bigger stage.

Agreed.

I have watched the last 4 Dallas games and I think we can definitely hurt them with the deep ball which is (at least was) our strength. Those underneath passes might be more difficult to pull off which is just fine if we revert to the first half of the season Rams offense which "fcuked everything in sight".

Run Todd. Look for Cooks deep. Send them crying back home.

They lit the Coli, LAX and the Santa Monica wheel blue last night for us. This will be fun.

As an aside; this has been a long frickin week man. I know most of you share that sentiment. Every day seemed longer and the wait was just brutal. Now just 1 more sleep. Lesssssssgggooooo.
