I'm anything but confident at this point; the main advantage Dallas possesses in this game is that the Lions are beat down big time. No Kerryon Johnson, a defensive unit ripped to shreds by injury and no clarity on Matthew Stafford's availability. No in depth analysis needed for this one. If Stafford's out Dallas holds on to win by less than a touchdown. If he plays I'm going to say 'boys by less than a field goal, but I wouldn't be the least bit shocked to be wrong. I'll say Dallas holds on to win, but no confidence points here.

For the first time since the season opener in 1991, I am going to entirely miss a Cowboys regular season game.
Now I have missed the live broadcast some and DVRd (or in old days, taped) a game and watched it before knowing the outcome, but for the first time in 28 years I am going to entirely miss a game, and since it isn't on our local channels I cant DVR.
And you know, I don't care. It doesn't bother me because of what Jones and Garrett have done to this team.
So I'll get hom Sunday evening and look forward to reading your in game commentary from start to finish.
Prediction- we lose again.

Are your parents sending you to "pray away the gay" camp?

well if for some reason justin coleman is playing well, i think the cowboys would know how to adjust.
its not like the team is dumb enough to let 1 of their players get shutdown or beaten up over and over again without helping them out. for example if an offensive tackle gets beat for like 6 sacks or something crazy, you take him out at 2-3 sacks. but stuff like that is pretty much unheard of. a PROfessional coach would make the obvious adjustment or substitution w/o hesitation. i would trust my boss if he went to princeton

They just don't have the o-line they need for success in the ground game. But... Like us they seem to not know what a draw play is. There's ways they could make run plays work. They just don't seem to really want to. Barring that, you'd think they would at least throw to the guy.

Lack of a decent o-line is their own fault. They chose to stock up on name brand position players instead of building their offense the right way.

Be that as it may, I'm only explaining one big reason I see as to why they can't run the ball. Lack of effort to overcome the deficiency is another.
