How Do We Plan for Dallas?

Force dak to beat you, hands down. Its a tough matchup imo becausadvut teams that can hold onto the ball for long amounts of time usually hurts keeping the GOAT on the sideline.

All i really know is im glad sea and dallas are both in the nfc because IF we make it that far wed only have to go through, and theyre the two biggest threats imo.

This is ultimately how I feel - Dallas isn't the best by any means, they're just well fortified in areas that takes matches our kryptonite. Grind it out teams that wear the defense (and our shaky front 7), keeping TB off the field and honestly I just fear Dak having too much time for his receivers to open up. Anybody can look good in that situation.

That being said their defense is below average it seems and IF you took away the run, they'd have to rely on Prescott more. Who looks great at 9-1 with only 12 TD's. 12 weeks into the season. He'd need to pass for more than one TD against the Pats and he hasn't been in a hot seat like that yet.

Huh? He's got 18 TDs against 2 INTs completing 68 percent of his passes in 11 games..
 
Dallas is over rated and false hype, check there cake schedule
 
On the Cows schedule, I thought GB was good, I thought the Vikes were good. I thought the Bungles were good. The Redskins aren't that good. Pittsburgh is OK. I don't think the Cows have been tested that much.

They play 6 games against there division opponents and all of those teams are decent/good. They beat the Ravens and the Steelers. So that alone is like 8 quality teams, and they have only lost once.

Dallas is for real. They have a similar defense to ours, I think thats why they milk the clock so much because they know its their weak point. Dak can make plays as a friggen rookie, looks like Dallas hit the jackpot.

I am just worried about our team's health and getting a win at the meadowlands.

But if I did look ahead, I would plan on seeing Seattle not Dallas.
 
In Seattle's defense the Rams are a divisional opponent that's always played them tough over the years so I wouldn't hold too much stock on that one! The Saints @ the Superdome is always a tough place to play and they aren't as bad as their record.

Rams were strong on the DL which was a bad matchup for a weak Seahawks OL.

I've literally racked my brain over and over to figure out how I **** out that stat. I look at TD passes without INT, I combed over every sensationalistic number from a specific context of any given amount if games and..

I was legitimately 190% wrong lol, thanks for fixing it. Good answers guys! Thanks for humoring discussion.
 
Well. Of course. That's very obvious. We can still discuss!
Whoever we play in the postseason, we'd better be playing our best football and be prepared to face our opponent's best that day. There will be some huge battles. It's why we really need the first round bye.
 
.....and then came February and we watched a Lions-Chiefs SB....



....and the world burned.
 
Just a thought but it's kind of crazy how "hypothetically" if Dallas were to get HFA throughout the playoffs & win out, they'd ALSO essentially have HFA in the SB since it's in Houston this year.
 
Seattle did shred our defense however there is too much love for them going on here. Tampa Bay just beat them up. Our team needs to get ready for the Rams who by the way have a winning streak against Seattle.
 
@ OP have you perchance travelled to the future and seen the SB matchup?
 
You might want to recall that Seattle lost to the Rams, 9-3, tied St Louis 6-6 and lost to the Saints 25-20.
part of my statement was in jest....

but, i dont think dallas is as good as their record shows and I do know Seattle steps up their game during the playoffs. dallas is a solid team nonetheless. kudos to them
