Lots of 'Boys fans/gamblers confident we lose opener

[Judo Thoreau]

Training camp hasn’t even started yet. Just a bit early to be putting money on a game when rosters aren’t even close to being set. Something tells me these are the types of people who bet on the coin flip & national anthem length at the super bowl.

Both teams are capable of beating each other but I think factor that matters the most is.  Norv Turner.

We have video of their offense and can formulate a better defensive game plan while the Cowboys will basically have no idea what to expect from our offense.  They will be gameplanning on what they see in preseason and if we are smart our preseason should be as vanilla as possible.

Well, it's not like there's much to talk about, but this story will make me smile all the more when we bring a can of whoop-ass to the 'boys in the opener.

"This means that 59% of the bets placed have been on the Panthers to cover; however, 52% of the money has been placed on the Cowboys."

 

Let the money roll before we make heads roll!  Are we seriously headed towards being de facto 'dogs? 

It's a big game. Outside of a victory against a division foe--there is no more satisfying win than sticking it to the entitled fans of the so-called America's Team. The game may have huge conference ramifications for teams coming out of (arguably) the toughest divisions in football. Team seeding and perhaps even a postseason appearance may literally ride on this game. 

I'm not saying we have to win it, but losing it would not be a good look.

Honestly, I think that our D-line will limit Zeke to under 100 yards rushing, and I believe our unheralded secondary will stop Dak and company through the air. The Cowboys will be offensively challenged against better defenses and we are in that number. Our offense will roll. Every player and coach will be motivated to put on a winning performance for new owner David Tepper. They're not going to beat us.

 

As good as Zeke is, we have the great equalizer running the defense from behind the line.  Only few running backs get the best of Luke.

Good Cam we win, bad Cam we lose.

Defense plays well, we win.  Doesn't play well, we lose.

Very favorable matchup for us. Their rushing attack versus our defense should be a wash. Dak is Cam without the arm so he'll be easy to prep for and on the secondary. Only concern is that they're good at containing TEs and the slot but we have other weapons.

The Cowboys have traditionally owned us during the regular season, and we've owned them the couple of times we've met in the playoffs. 2015 was an aberration.

But who cares Cowboys suck and our guys are going to abuse them again!

[Moo Daeng]

Cowboys fans and gamblers are idiots.

[SOJA]

We usually match up really well with teams like Dallas. Lots can change between now and week 1, but all things equal I like our chances

The only area I see as a concern is if our defensive line gets neutralized and Dak just has ALL DAY to throw

Luke has already read the first 10 plays Dallas throws at us. 

 

We got this.

I hope somehow Tony Romo calls that game.

As it's an all NFC matchup it will likely draw the Fox game of the week which would be Buck/Aikman.

[FakePlasticTrees]

This simply reminds me how much that hope gambling is legalized in North Carolina and/or South Carolina.

Yeah they are the the 3rd most represented in my area behind SF/Oak,  they're Roaches, soon as they start winning they are everywhere can't go to the grocery store without being behind 3 Dallas jerseys, not winning i think they throw on a SF or Oak jersey and try to blend. 

HATE them isn't a strong enough word. 

I'm heading to Vegas in month, I will be putting a few hundred down on this game in various parlays I think the O/U is 44, I'm leaning towards the U on that one.

The cowgals are champions every June, July and August....then September starts.

Dallas is at the top of my list of teams I hate outside the NFCS. Their fans are some of the most arrogant people walking planet Earth even though they haven’t done much of anything in the 21st century. 

 

Can’t wait for the talking heads before game day claiming that we have no chance.
