Every week since week one our defense has been improving, holding opposing offenses to less and less points. Also defensively we have only given up 3 point in the last 2 weeks. All other points were scored on the offense and special teams, a trend we will look to decrease this Sunday. I'm sure that stat won't last against you, but its fun to tout.
The Patriots have held opponents to 14 (jets), 14 (chargers), 7 (Bills), 13 (Cincy) and 17 (Cleveland).
The Cowboys have allowed 35 (35!), 20 (dolphins), 10 (Bears), 7 (Rams) and 24 (but really 3, against a rookie QB and Buffalo).
The Chargers, Cleveland and Cincy are all potentially POWERFUL offenses. You have faced 4 of the most feeble, anemic offenses in the NFL, and the Patriots are STILL better defensively than Dallas. In no way whatsoever can any sentient being suggest that the Cowboys defense is anything LIKE "better," let alone "light years" or whatever you said.
An amusing few threads, though. Thanks!
