Pre Game Thread- We are on to the Cowboys

[SHOWTIME15]

Pats almost lose to the worst team in the league. Meanwhile, the Cowboys are ROLLING with their high-power attack. This game has a chance to get ugly. And if memory serves me correctly, this was the 17th game added to our schedule - wish we ended up getting the Giants instead. In any event, Onwenu, Mason, Wynn, and Mills need to get back for us to stand a chance. And hopefully, Harris will play too. If he's out long-term, then Bill needs to add another RB - use one of those extra picks we acquired in the Michel trade to get someone. Need an answer to Lamb, Cooper, and Schultz. Michael Gallup on IR is a big help.

Two of the highest producing defensive players in the NFL this year will be playing in this matchup.

The Tampa game was going to be an ugly blowout….

Who knows what happens next week ? NE has looked both promising and ugly at times. And Dallas’ coaching : it’s not Jimmy Johnson making the calls.

3-3 does seem a lot nicer than 2-4. That’s for sure.

 

[Guts]

We need to score in this game. Dallas will get theirs

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

It's going to be a very hard game. Need a more inspired effort out of the D. We will have to win the turnover battle , or at the very worst tie it.

I have no handle on this game. My head says Dallas is gonna kill the Pats. My heart says, well they held the GOAT & SB Champs to 19 and only lost by 2, but gave up 22 to a rookie QB who struggled in every game he played in prior to facing the Pats. So I have no clue.

Which Pats show up next week ?

 

[Pats1971]

We will probably need more than 18 to win.

Funny that the Cowboys have not beaten the Patriots since 1996.

 

[Ochmed Jones]

Because Dallas has never beaten Brady!

We're are very schizophrenic...

Thats because Brady played them throughout that time. lol Things are a tad different right now.

Drew beat them in 99 and he had a 44 passer rating that game. LOL

Sooner or later those screen passes are going to work in the red zone for McD. Maybe next week will be the week.

I didn't realize Brady was our QB from 1996-2000...

A fan since 71?

I know we're winless at home so far, but for some reason the fact that the Pats are playing at home is reassuring. Despite how FUgly the team has looked, the next 7 games look winnable. 9-3 and we'll be looking good for the home stretch. Anybody want what I'm smokin' over here? Good stuff.

They got no shot...

Damian Harris is a terrible football player and probably my least favorite player (from an on-field POV). I wish no injury upon him, but this team is a significantly better team with him as far away from the field as possible. Directly caused one loss already, and was almost responsible for another.

Born in. I am not that old.

How many times did the pats play the cowboys from 96 to 2000?
