Re: Week 10 - Minnesota Vikings.
This game is what I wanted the Packers game to be. I'll take it against the 8-1 Vikings though.

Cowboys good enough to reach the conference finals.
Lets not get too silly.
Cowboys have talent to reach the conference finals.
As long as the Cowboys play to their strengths, they're hard to beat.
You have more faith in Dak than I do.

Last season the Cowboys were very reliant on Dak.
This season they changed that a bit.
They're running the football more this season.
Cowboys won't live or die with Dak anymore.

Re: Week 10 - Minnesota Vikings.
This is what happens when the offense and defense are both playing to their best.
I think if Dallas played this way all year they'd win it all.

McCarthy needs to take out Parsons and Prescott.
Rush Cooper time.
Only way to screw this game up is to lose one of them

No, last I heard it would be closer to Christmas and maybe not until the playoffs. James Washington should be back soon though.

Re: Week 10 - Minnesota Vikings.
So if the Vikings and Giants are frauds (and the Eagles in my opinion) who are the best teams in the NFL?

Kansas City. How can anyone bet against Mahomes.

Why is his progress going so slow?

Re: Week 10 - Minnesota Vikings.
Frauds or not the Vikings were a concensus top-3 team in all power rankings along with KC and Philly.
That was a GOOD football team we beat. Maybe they weren't as good as 8-1 suggests but they a still a solid team overall.
Better than the Packers.

Re: Week 10 - Minnesota Vikings.
Prescott was sacked zero times btw. Only pressured once. The o-line was phenomenal today.
We don't even need Tyron Smith but this line should be scary with him.

Re: Week 10 - Minnesota Vikings.
Prescott was 22/25 275 yards 139 passer rating.
That's near perfect.
He had some amazing passes today. That pass to CeeDee on the sideline was perfect.

Re: Week 10 - Minnesota Vikings.
Thats it ,good gameplan.Dak is not consistently good enough to carry the team,and should never have to because we have 2 good RB,s
Dak maybe able to do it on occassion,but we should run the ball at least 60 percent of the time where we have an amazing record.The next game should be the same thing...RUN,and dont fall in love with Dak,and overthrow,but I wont be surprised if they try to go Dakfest ,and pass too much,and squeak out a win.
When we run,and with our defense,we are a contender any day of the week.
Sometimes I wonder if Jones prefers it when we pass a lot ,and win,rather than run a lot ,and win.
Maybe there is also a way to track our record vs when he speaks out,and when he does not.
I still think or am convinced that he tells the coach what he would like to see more of etc.
Ok..no more Jerry talk for me unless.......

This shouldn't be too difficult for the genius of Kellen Moore. But it probably will be.
I honestly didn’t think Moore had it in him to run 40 times and pass 30. I’m glad I was wrong. Because if he can make this work going forward then this team has a shot to do really good things in the playoffs.

I think for the playoffs we will need to get lucky with the matchup. Some teams are just bad matchups for Dallas. I think Philly gives Dallas fits, and SF would give us fits too.
Hopefully we get lucky and face the Vikings in the first round while Philly loses their matchup. That's what we'll need to go tot he Super Bowl.
