It Is Dallas Week, Isn't It?

It would make a victory even sweeter, if we could manage to beat the Cowboys, in Dallas w/ a offensive line full of practice squad and backup players, a backup RB, and a coach who hasn't proven that he knows what he's doing yet.

So, I'm holding out hope that somehow if we can get a win, this will compare to Dallas fans holding the 1 win over our head in their dreadful 1-15 season. I still hear that. So, I'm still pumped about it.

Yeah, a bit of the edge has been taken off. But, still, I hope that we smash the heck out of those ugly uniform low-lifes.

Well its always fun to beat dallas. we always seem to find a way to beat them atleast once a year, even when we're horrible, so i think we have a shot... i just don't feel any of the usual "excitement" leading up into the game.

Lets see Hunter Smith has ran for a TD, passed for a TD, so now its time to hit the jumbo screen to run the last few seconds off the clock for a win.

I would completely forgive this team if we swept Dallas this year.

You're leaving the dark side and coming around to the light side, Sandtrap, that's all.

Was at the game Sunday and after the win it was like nobody knew it was Dallas week. I go to all the games and this was the first time I saw that.

This.

Honestly, I'm excited coming off the Denver win, but I have no idea how the game is going to turn out. Both teams always play each other hard because of the rivalry - I always remember that season where the 'Boys went 2-14, they were absolutely horrible that year, and the only games they won were against us. We've also had s****y seasons, too, where they made the playoffs and we didn't, but we swept 'em or kept it 1-1.

So, we'll play for keeps and they'll play for keeps, that much is a given. If we come out playing like we have since the Atlanta game's second half, we have a chance; if we play like we did prior to that second half, we're gonna lose. If THEY come out playing like they did this past weekend, we have an even bigger chance; if they come out playing like they did during their streak, well, we better hope the D shows up - cuz they haven't since Atlanta (I really, really miss ST right now). We need to harass the f**k outta Romo, that's when he loses his cool and starts throwing picks and just generally breaking down.

In the end, if the 'Skins play like they have the last game and a half and we lose, I won't be as upset because at least they're PLAYING now. If they win, it will be doubly sweet.

It is just a game, afterall.

The 'Boys played jacked football against GB. I'm hoping they're shook.

Fantasy rule number 213: Always start Santana Moss against Dallas, especially if the game is at Dallas.

Well, I wouldn't forgive some of the players for quiting on themselves nor the FO for ignoring the O-line issues that were apparent even last year but I wiill forgive all my Dallas friends for crying their hearts out at us sweeping "Americas Team". HA

Come on guys, It's Dallas. No matter what else, these count!!!

Your thinking of the year that Troy A. was a rookie and they won one game that year and it was against us. My parents went on a 3 hour bus trip to RFK for that game and there was one Dallas fan on the bus. They gave her a hard time going up and she got smashed at the game. They had to then listen to the one drunk Dallas fan for 3 hours. They kept giving her drinks thinking she would pass out but she only got louder and louder. If I'm correct it was also our last SB win in 1992 and we went 17-2.
