Cowboys struggled on the road most of the season but I'm supposed to believe they're magically going to turn this around and beat the Rams by nearly 3 TDs.

If this game is decided by a large margin then that means the Rams won....i think most on here would agree with that

''Most on here'' would have agreed that the Seahawks would beat Dallas and the Bears would beat the Eagles. I don't think the Cowboys will blow them out, but it's just as likely as the Rams blowing them out, in other words, it ain't happening

I could see it 31-13 the other way if he doesn't turn it over. Rams gave up 45 and lost by 10 in their house to the Saints, who the Cowboys held to 10 in the entire game. They lost by TD to an Eagles team that the Cowboys swept. They got punched in their mouth and scored 6 points at home in a loss to a Bears team that just lost at home to those Eagles. The Rams also won a couple of very tight games against a Seattle team that Dallas just dominated on both the OL and DL. Dak will play well and the Rams will get all they want and a bag of chips
The Rams didn't lose to the Saint in Los Angeles, that game was played in New Orleans. Also the Rams loss to the Bears in Chicago.

The best weekend of the year for football fans. Two great games Saturday and Sunday.
Dallas can beat the Rams if they give Zeke the ball 25 times. Fucking want to punch him in his face when he does that “feed me” crap but he’s incredible

Good point, but don't forget that Gurley can carry the ball 25 times too.

He’d beat my ass silly, but not you cause you are a 12th degree chain belt and Bruce Lee was your teacher... or something close to that, right?

12th degree chain belt? fucking stupid.

I'm trained in 5 disciplines, so yes, I'd stomp a new hole in you to defecate.

Gurley is fantastic too... indeed but that Dallas D is playing great. Rams need this to turn it into a shoot out
To turn it into a shootout, the Rams are going to have to stop Zeke. They will have to play the run a lot better than they have lately to do that.

Dallas at their best running the ball, Rams are at their worst when other teams run the ball. Suh has been a failure in the running game, hasn't had one run stuff all season which is unusual for a guy who has been considered one of the better run defenders in the league. Seems like he is more concerned about trying to get sacks stats to get his money. Rams need to take advantage of their offensive opportunities to get the Cowboys out of what they do best, which won't be easy against a good Dallas defense. Dak will have his opportunities against the Rams defense, and cant afford to turn over the ball.
As a Cowboys fan, I can tell you how to beat my team, just as I'm sure you could tell me how to beat the Rams. The Rams should put 8 in the box to stop Zeke. If that doesn't work, put 9 up there. Most teams are now worried about giving up huge plays to Cooper, but even if Dallas hits a few long TD's, it takes them out of their game. The Cowboys have a great defense, but it is built on speed not size, and when the offense is holding the ball for 33-34 minutes a game, it allows them to fly around and be double tough. Also, while Dak may hit a few big plays, if Zeke is getting 1-2 yards a carry early, and Dallas ends up in 3rd and long, it's much more likely that Dak will take a sack when he has to push the ball downfield. He will also put it on the ground when he is hit a lot. Even if you give up a couple of long TD's in the passing game, the ends justify the means.
That said, if the Rams play their typical style on D, I think Zeke has a big day, Dallas controls the ball and the clock, keeps the Rams offense off the field and puts a whole lot of pressure on Goff if it is a close game. The one thing I will say about our QB, Dak is a clutch son of a gun. I like him in a one possession game

I have never understood in all my years. Why people think it is a good idea to talk shit with their hands in their pockets.
Dumbass! LOL

That to me actually helps the Cowboys. They dont want to go score for score in a high scoring match up. Longer offensive drives for both teams should ensure a close game. If Dallas wins, it will be in a close game. See if Dak can do another one of those 4th Qtr deals. if the Rams arent grinding means there will be more possessions. That is kinda the opposite of the Cowboys game plan.

Well, clearly Dallas can win this game, but I'm not going to pretend that they should or that it is likely that they will. Dallas will have to play very well to win, but they have played well lately so that gives them a chance. I am hoping Su'a Filo is back. Williams played well last week, but I think he will get pushed backwards into Dak in pass protection and have trouble moving the Rams DL in the running game. Dallas will need to control the LOS like they did this past week and obviously that will be quite a bit harder against the Rams. But, you never know. One week at a time :hope:

This might be the first neutral site playoff game and I'm giving Rams fans credit with this because you know the Cowboys fans are going to be out in full force.

This is maybe the best matchup the both teams could've hoped for. That sounds weird but the Rams can't stop the Cowboys from doing what they're doing and I honestly don't think the Cowboys can stop the Rams from doing what they're doing. Seattle only got 3 yds a rush last game and the Cowboys need to find their magic to do that again against the Rams but I'm not sure the Cowboys match up as well against the Rams oline. Cowboys are also bad at forcing INTs which is maybe the Rams biggest or 2nd biggest weakness heading into the playoffs.

I thinking something like 27-24 Rams but this should be a fun game. If the Cowboys can rattle Goff then they can win, though

i'd give the cowboys a 40% chance of winning this one. If the Rams are not playing their best game, I could see the Cowboys defense getting some stops and being able to move the ball on the ground.
