Your Saturday Night NFL Football Open Thread

Hey, don’t get mouthy, it could have been Giants and TEAM playing here.

To The Game!

Cowboys/Eagles:

-Dallas Gotta Get Them Turnovers-in three of four games where they didn’t generate a takeaway they did come away with an L. In those three losses they gave up an average of 30 points and 438 yards. The Cowboys overall success really does run through the defense.

-Covid has run rampant through the Eagles, what with 12 players being assigned to “The List” back on Monday. All are eligible to play tonight so good for them-they’re vaccinated.

-I won’t get into the details but both squads can jump up a spot (Philly) or two (Dallas) if certain teams do certain things in certain ways. Hope that clears things up for you.

-Corey Clement Revenge Tilt?- Zeke (banged up in perpetuity) and Pollard (ruled out with a foot owie) need rest. I’ve a feeling that at least the 2nd half belongs to old CC.

-Speaking of, it’s gotta be a Cooper/Minshew fight to the finish eventually, right? The winner gets all the batteries.

-Dallas is coming off a disappointing loss to the Cards so there is an argument to leaving Dak, Amari and Ceedee in there for a wee bit. Heading into the playoffs on a two game losing skid is most likely not a good thing.

-Devonta Smith needs a mere 37 yards to beat Desean Jackson’s rookie wr record. The Good? He’s gotten this far on a team that very clearly has embraced the run for the balance of the season. The Bad? Dallas ranks #1 in DVOA vs WR1. Still, all it could take is one long toss.

Enjoy the NFC East and what it has on offer.
