do the cowboys have a chance against the pats?

yes. we've seen brady falter with pressure in recent days and we have also seen the problems that the patriots' pass defense has. if ware and the receiver corp from dallas have big games, they can come away with the W.

Yes. Glitch summed it up pretty well.

uh yeah kid the Cowboys have a very good chance vs the Pats. Coming off a bye week Dallas is getting key players back such as Miles Austin. Will the pats defense shut down the Cowboys offense no. Only question is will Romo give the game away in the 4th now thats a good chance. In 22 games played immediately after a bye week, including two in the 1993 season, the Cowboys are 15-7. They are 6-2 in the last eight years. Not a bad stat for the Boys coming off a bye week.

This one comes down to the final possession.

dallas' biggest strengths on both sides of the ball are new england's biggest weaknesses.

pass rush vs pats line problems many very good receivers vs that secondary.

manny24 · 10-13-11, 12:14 PM

yes they have a chance actually 2 chances...to be either beaten badly or totally destroyed...24-3 new england.

Agreed!

Sure, they have a chance. They'll need their role players to step up though... both Ware and Witten will have tough games. The Pats shut down Gates, and I expect the same attention on Witten. Ware will have to get by Gronkowski, one of the best blocking TEs in the game.

The Boys secondary is pretty weak, so Brady and Co will do some damage. Should be a good game.

Pats 38
Cowboys 24

If Dallas doesn't turn the ball over then (yes) they have a "chance"....to cover that is.

But a win in New England???

Don't think so...regardless of their "bye week" history. Plain and simple, this is the wrong team for Dallas to face right now. Trying to rebuild your confidence against Tom Brady and the Pats.....AT HOME!!!!

Shoudl be an entertaining game though

. I'd definitely go for the over more than Dallas covering..let alone winning.

YES but they might have to score 40 some points, and with the NE defense they could do that.

boneheaded1 · 10-13-11, 01:12 PM

Can Dallas put up points on NE? You bet. Can NE put up points on Dallas? Hell yeah.

Can Dallas outscore NE? Probably not.

Of the two, I see Dallas committing a turnover or two more than I do NE.

Either way, Dallas can win the game but I don't think they will. The only safe bet on this game was the over.

Tease:

Packers (spread)
Packers/Rams over (Pack will cover that on their own)
NE/Dallas over
Saints (spread)

Saints don't lose to Tampa by more than a FG (if they lose at all which I don't think they will).

the patriots are good for 31+ points every sunday. i think this dallas team can go for 34-38+ with some run support.

i hate the cowboys.

Ice House · 10-13-11, 02:16 PM

kind of like the over in this game.

btw from what I have read it looks like around 80% of SBR posters like the Cowboys. So Cowboys is probably they play.

jmush · 10-13-11, 02:30 PM

i beleive dallas is coming off of bye week and miles austin is back....i like them to keep this close

Do the Pats ever lose at home?
