Cowboys Wk 4

[Skins838891]

I am sure many of you are watching the GB/Dallas game right now. I know its not even half time but I think that the skins have a decent shot at beating the cowboys next week. Anyone care to agree or disagree? I hope the O-line can hold and JC can move around the pocket enough to not be on his back every other play. JC is definitely going to have to be more aware then he has of the pocket next week. I also think a thorough analysis and break down of this GB/cowboys game will be key to a W next week. Thoughts?

the skins will have to play the whole game as good as they did the first series today if they have any chance whatsoever at beating dallas new week.they need to stop the run a lot better too,or barbour & jones will run all over them.

I think we're going to have a big problem stopping Marion Barber, considering we've struggled containing bigger backs so far this season (Jacobs, James). I'd love to see an effort like the game last year when we held him to like 0 yards on the ground.

[Daseal]

Yeah, we need to keep our offense driving. We can't disappear for most of the game like we did today. Time of possession and finishing drives will be very important. I've been surprised at how sloppy the game has been thus far.

Anyone can be beaten on any given day. If we double TO as GB is doing, keep Horten in to stop the big RB, get pressure on Homo, we can beat them. It can be done. I mean Dallas has been held to 3 points for most of the first half and to be honest GB's defense has not impressed me this yr.

I was also hoping the NYG were going to lose considering Cinci played them so well today but nada. The darn Eagles had to win also. Next week will be our test. We held the Giants under 20 points. I was concerned as to how good the NYG actually were and I still am considering Cinci gave them hell today but Dallas is supposed to go into the post season so it will be a good measuring stick for us. Atleast offensively speaking 'cause we might have to keep pace with them.

I am excited about us scoring more then 20 points the last two games. I got tired of all the low scoring games during Gibbs.

That's what got me thinking about the possibility of the skins chalking a W next week, the sloppiness of this game. The cowboys are a force to be reckoned with, but from what you saw last week and tonight, they make their share of mistakes. Anyone else love watching Romo fuck up or is it just me? It was fricking awesome last week when he fumbled in the end zone which turned into that safety.

Watching the Cowboys, our Defense is going to have to keep forcing turnovers for us to win. I think Arizona showed we have a weakness for run stopping, and I am sure Dallas will push us hard that way. I think we may have to wait till we get the cowboys on our turf before we beat them.

I think we definitely have a chance to beat Dallas. We have to keep TO in check and gang tackle Barber. ON O we have to establish the run to help out JC.

If we can maintain long drives I think we can win. Our DB's smothered the cards receivers for much of the game today. I think we can do the same to dallas. If Landry can get an early pop on T.O. he'll get alligator arms again like he did with Sean Taylor. We'll need a GOOD pass rush and our line has GOT to protect Campbell. We can do it but we'll have to come out strong from the get-go. I hope romo has some of his f***ups against us. We have'nt done to well between the 20's stopping the run. Somehow we did a helluva job on their run game last year. We need to pull that film out and take a look.

I NEVER think we will lose, and I stay positive all the way until the final whistle blows...that's just who I am. That being said, there are only two teams that I feel are elite teams right now, that's Dallas and Denver. Can we beat them? Certainly! But we need to be better in all facets of the game to do so.

We're gonna have to play a hell of a ball game. My worry is them running Barber straight at our smallish DE's. He's an animal.

Taylor is no slouch to stopping the run.

He's been pretty awful at it his whole career. Maybe he'll be better here because we have more help for him at the second level. If he is going to be better, we didn't get any of that today.

[Redskin Warrior]

The X-Factor to this game will be Reed Doughty or Chris Horton if he starts the way Miles Austin did the GB secondary and the way T.O. has been running streaks down field our defense has to be on point Romo loves to go deep.

Things to keep in mind, TO had a quiet game against GB, that's means next week they'll be trying to give him the ball a lot. The Cowboys added another weapon to their arsenal, Miles Austin and Felix Jones is very dangerous. For us Devin Thomas is starting to produce even if he made some bone head plays, hopefully Kelly will be ready for more action next week. I think the keys will be our DB's against their WR's and stopping Barber and Jones. We need to play aggressive and not be intimidated, our OL needs to win in the trenches. Should be a good one I hope.
