Cowboyz1 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 (edited) Well first of all what the heck is going on here. We have perhaps one of the biggest weeks in football and we have ZERO sig bets, or game threads. What gives? Fans of every teams use to post the game threads and I loved to read through all of them seeing all the trash talkin. Well, keeping up with tradition, I'll get the Giants vs. Cowboys game thread started. I will say that this is the defining game of the year of the Cowboys. A Cowboys win tells me this team has what it takes to be taken seriously this year. A loss dooms this years Cowboys team. As optimistic as I am, this game has to be a must win. Going 3-4 at the halfway mark with the teams we have left to play just smacks of doom.......... I have to tell you. My Cowboys are perplexing. After week one I thought, hey now, this club looks good. Then after weeks 2 through 7, not so much........ I just can't figure this team out at all. We plug one leak and another springs up somewhere else. We stop one problem and two more pop up. We cut down on penalties but give up fumbles and picks. We stop the turnovers but lose our running game. Then just when we play a fairly clean game and grind out a road win, we lose our heart and soul of the defense in Sean Lee. So what's in store on Sunday, at home, against the Giants whom we beat on the road already but have lost to the past three time at home no less? I would love to come in here and confidently say "hey the Cowboys are playing good football and should beat the Giants", but I can't. Because their not playing good football. They're playing peek a boo. I would love to say "hey the Giants have to find a way to cover our talented WR". But I can't say that either. Ogletree has done exactly what I suspected he would. Play great one week and then turn into the invisible man. Dez same thing, now you see em now you don't. I would love to say "Romo is playing some of his best football". But I can't say that either. Yes he has played well in spurts. But between dropped balls, missed throws and defensive pressure, he's been limited. It's hard to play QB without any running game. More on that later. The Defense, yes it's in the top of the league in many categories but really they haven't been all that impressive. Two Picks. TWO. All that talent and corner and we have 2 picks. Don't get it. I just don't. They aren't exactly keeping people out of the endzone either. Then you have the running game, more ups and downs then a porn movie. Murray up, Murray down, Felix up, Felix Down. The Giants on the other hand are doing with that Giants do. Find a way to win. Now I don't think our secondary will let Cruz run free down the middle and spit double coverage for an 80 yard TD with less then 2 minutes on the clock. Ridiculous. Eli has thrown some BAD picks but in wins they get overlooked. The Oline is starting to play better and Cook has a few more weeks in the system so the should be able to hold up. Smith controlled JPP in NY and needs to do the same Sunday. If the Cowboys win and go to 4-3, the East is in play. A loss will be a hard pill to swallow and difficult to recover from. Keys to the game: The Cowboys win if they sack Eli at least 4 times. Pressure will cause Eli to throw the ball to spots and if this secondary is better then last year's they will get picks on those throws instead of watching the ball fall gently into the arms of Giants receivers. Eli will make bad throws under pressure and Rat back with Ware and Spencer off the edges can get the job done. Make the Giants drive distance for points. Slip has to throw 3 TD's and only 1 pick and it can't be a pick 6. Think about this. The Cowboys have only 2 rushing TD's. 2. So yet again this year if the Cowboys score it's because of Romo's arm period. That's asking a lot from your QB and defenses know this so that makes it even tougher. Romo could be much more effective if we could muster even a little bit of running game to keep teams honest. Can you imagine how difficult it must be to score when the defense knows 95% of the time your throwing to do it. Watched the Carolina game and the safeties where so deep they should have had to decompress to avoid the bends.......... Someone has to rush for at least 80 yards. Jones, Tanner, Dunbar. Somebody........ Prediction: A really good game. I hope............ Edited October 27, 2012 by Cowboyz1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boltnlava Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 This Giant collapse is very much Chargers-esque. All they have to do is fail to win it at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
