10 things about this Eagles-Cowboys game
1. Eagles are 5-0 on Thanksgiving, kind of useless stat but you can argue any stat except 1 is useless. and that is the one that isnt useless (W/L) so w/e
2. Maclin makes a catch better than Odell Beckham's, calling it now. Riley cooper made comments about Maclin getting more snaps than him, only adds to motivation.
3. Mark Sanchez isnt winning this game, LeSean McCoy needs 100+ yards. you know youre a fuckin baller when a thousand yard season is considered a "down year"
4. The Cowboys defense IS NOT good, contrary to popular belief earlier in the season.
5. who do you trust more, Chip Kelly or Jason Garret (Jerry Jones)? enough said
6. Romo has a bad back. The Eagles are 2nd in the league in sacks. Hey, that might be a problem
7. Eagles lead the league in forced fumbles. DeMarco Murray has a history of fumbling. Hey, that might be a problem.
8. Dez Bryant will get over 100+ yards this game because the Eagles are that bad in the secondary. All that matters is touchdowns. Bend dont break.
9. Eagles Special Teams vs Dallas Special teams? for a game between two comparable teams that is usually what it comes down to. I'll take my chances with the Eagles despite the GB game
10. At the end of the day, these teams will probably split, and in all likelihood will finish with the same records at which point it goes to division W/L. Something tells me that 20-17 OT loss to Washington will come back to bite Dallas in the ass. Whether that means no playoffs, well depends on how the Lions, 49ers, Seahawks, and Packers finish out.
Eagles 34
