I am proud of my cowboys for getting a attitude and fighting for the win last week vs Tampa. From what I can tell the same intensity is still going on this week. Just hang in their cowboys , help is on the way! Prossman

I like the direction that this team is starting to take. I like how many 'real rooks' are starting to be seen and in a way that reminds me of the old Steeler team that has so many Hall of Famers. Throw in the addition of Roy Williams and they are starting to be mind boggling.
They have won my respect, and if I had about $10,000, I'd go to Vegas and lay it all on the line for the Cowboys this week.
I think that if the Dallas offensive line holds the line this Sunday, Dallas will win this one....Brad Johnson and all.

It's not the players , it's the coaching mentality I am concerned with .This game , the bye week , then the 'skins - critical , not to mention the back end of the schedule ; if we only had a top notch backup the team would not be in this situation . With all the money Jerry has spent bringing in talent , to devalue the backup position is unconscionable

The Giants have only lost one game but have struggled in a couple of their wins and been lucky a lot this season. They have an outstanding passrush that causes the other team to make a lot of mistakes and on offense, Brandon Jacobs has been having a very good season running the ball. They don't turn the ball over much either.
They are beatable but we need to play aggressive on both sides of the ball but not turn it over on offense. We also cannot afford stupid penalties. The Giants have a habit of talking a lot and getting our players to commit dumb penalties, we can't allow that to happen today.
The O-Line HAS to step it up and give Johnson time to throw as well as open holes for Barber. Garrett needs to have a smart gameplan that utilizes quick passes to Owens. He also needs to be ready to make adjustments throughout the game as needed to keep the defense from simply teeing off on us.
If we can mitigate their passrush then we have a chance to win.

Thumper, you know, I got the impression by this Giant team, that they do indeed put their Joe pants on one leg at a time. They do come out to play a team game and execute for the most part. I wonder, as teams such as Pittsburgh and even Cleveland showed....solid play goes a long way against them. Leave out turnovers and blown field position events, and the Giants make mistakes.
Until the Cowboys start playing at a top level of play...none of those facts are of interest to us fans. A yo-yo never goes far into the month of December...and that is just a few games away.
