I'm torn. No idea what to expect this week. I'll make pick sometime before game though.

I'm waiting for a weather report. I lean toward Dallas anyway but want to see what conditions we're dealing with.

Dallas's previous records mean nothing. Road warriors is just coincidence of efforts and urgency that happened during games that all happen to be on the road. Maybe Dallas does worse at home because there's a sense that they will be given some advantage by playing at home and in so thinking, there is less effort and urgency. Such is the behavior of Dallas over the years.

I was watching the movie "Searching for Bobby Fischer" and Lawrence Fishbourne's character started warning the chess player who was training "Don't play the board, play me." Jason in one of his recent interviews said that they need to keep doing what they are doing and play better. It's like it doesn't matter who the opponent is or what the opponent does, Jason will keep trying the limited selection of plays despite any lack of success.

I bet on the Cowboys, but that's just because I know they will check to see what I bet and play even harder knowing I bet on them.

Put a healthy amount on Philly. We don't have Seattles defense and I think if we feed Murray the ball like we did against the Bears he's not going to finish the game.

It'll be close, but ultimately the Eagles have a talented front seven and can get to the QB.

Philly in a blowout. I don't know what this team has shown you all in the last 5-6 weeks to make you think we stand a chance.
Bet all my vcash on the Eagles.

This is essentially a "play in" game, and we all know how those go for Dallas. As I wrote last year before the WK 17 Philly game, "Always remember that these guys are first and foremost losers who choke when the lights get brightest." Expect more of the same.

I want to say the team has turned a corner. I want to believe that they are sick of being labeled chokers and sick of the Eagles running their mouth. Recent history says they won't.

I think it's much closer than last game but stupid Eagles still win.

Too much talk from the Cowboys this week for my liking. That wasn't us... ready for the rematch... this is our season...

They usually let us down when they do that.

Eagles win. Closer game, but I doubt the outcome is in question in the final minutes.
