Andy Dalton is still a good QB. He was 9 for 11 at over 10 YPC to win the game yesterday. He has 3 very good receivers and a very good running back. They are still likely to put up 30 points.

The question is, can we score more? The Giants were averaging 14 PPG before yesterday but put 34 on them (1 pick 6). Can Kliff play the same as yesterday and abandon the screens and passes behind the LOS and take more downfield shots? Which we will need to do if we want to score at a high rate.

vs Panthers only 4/9 on passes over 10 yards
vs Jets 9/13 on passes over 10 yards

Dallas’ defense is terrible.
Dallas lost a lot of their offensive line for the year.

We should pressure Dalton and create turnovers. We should score at will.

Give the points.

The two highest graded Edge rushers per PFF this week were...

Tank Lawrence and Aldon Smith

Can our defense force turnovers?

You are showing your age, because the last three teams have had all day to throw the ball by NFL standards and so will Dallas with the best offensive weapons we have faced all year by a landslide

Hate what happened with Dak, but he's a more aggressive QB than Dalton.

They may lack their full game big play ability. I noticed a lot of runs last week until they were forced to throw.

So we might luck out, but yea its time for the Cardinals dbs to start getting their hands on the football.

Veteran back up QB, bad O-Line, defense banged up...yep...the Cards' kryptonite right there.

I'm thinking 34-30 Cowboys. But, it could easily go 34-30 Cards. I think this game is a "pick 'em" game.

Dial it up Vance

You say this like Vance can dial up pressure. It isn't like we don't blitz. We blitz, but Vance likes to keep every gap covered so those blitzes are super easy to pick up. Essentially linemen just need to wait in their gap and someone will come to them.

God Bless Greg Abbot’s Texas...

I’m sure I’m annoying everyone here with this but me and 7 buddies will be there sitting next to each other...

I’m 26 and my Phoenician friends work all over the US so Dallas is a great meetup... Go Birds and pressure the red rocket

it's infuriating. the blitzes literally look designed to be blocked perfectly.
