people say you want this team to win so you can play this team instead.
Especially as a fan, but I read things where they are saying the Cowboys want philly to win. So they can avoid the Saints.
Well lets pretend the Cowboys havent already beaten the Saints once (so it can be done) but I think as a playoff team (Any of them) Should never think that way. They should go in thinking they are gonna go in & beat the next team they play. if they arent going in with that mentality, they are mentally weak & will probably lose anyways.
I mean I would rather us play the Rams than the Saints, but there is no way I am hoping the Eagles win to make that happen. Only time I can see me rooting for the Eagles is if the Cowboys make the Championship game & Eagles were still in the playoffs. Even then it would be just so the Cowboys could play at home.

Point being. I dont see any playoff team thinking about avoiding another playoff team & being successful.

I think it is a valid thing to root for a particular team when the payoff is a Home game vs a road game. Otherwise I just root against the biggest A Hole fanbases...so...this ones easy...

When it gets to the playoffs, I always look at home field advantage. There are certain places that have a huge advantage - GB, Minnesota , Seattle - just to name a few.

Yeah as fans I get it.
but I read things saying the Cowboys are hoping for.....
Which I think they shouldnt give a shit.
They should be thinking they are gonna beat the next team up.
If they were saying they want to play the rams that is like saying they are intimidated by the Saints. To me these are stupid articles.

Is it just me or do these off the street DBs of the Eagles look like they have improved.

Better than what they looked like when they faced the cowboys. Then again Amari is better than what the bears have

Heck he has thrown 2 INTs today, but their offense really does look better with Foles

Bree's is deadly at home. But I know this Cowboys D could give him fits, even at home.

But I would rather the Cowboys play in LA. A venue (If I remember right) will be half filled with Cowboy fans.

We shall see what happens in LA. It would really be something if the cowboys beat LA and make it to the NFC Championship. I am kind of sick to my stomach that the eagles won though. The Rams have a great offense,but I think we have a shot if we get pressure on goff

The sad thing is I think the eagles have a real shot at upsetting the saints. Brees is great,but he seems to have fewer weapons than most of the playoff teams.
