NO BET!!!!!!!!!! I WOULDN'T BET A NICKEL I FOUND ON THE STREET ON THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But, I hope Dallas schools this overrated N.Y. Yankees wannabe team - just for the glory factor alone...............
Live from Philly: The days of those characters you speak of are long gone. I worked security at the Vet (700-level, Eagles Court and so forth). Increased ticket prices, along with personal seat licenses, have chased the slumming fanatics away.
The hockey and basketball arenas have long been known as corporate meeting places rather than a place for die hard fans. Nevertheless, about tonight's game.
Demarcus Murry is powerhouse (I followed his career at Oklahoma) and the Eagles run defense is terrible. Dallas could be very successful running the ball. The Eagles offensive line is porous; it stinks, and Vicke should have trouble getting the ball downfield.
I see Dallas with a great chance of winning this game if we look at talent, coaching, kicking. But, the city has one of those THIS IS OUR NIGHT EXCITEMENT to it. Meaning, something goofy will have to happen for the Eagles to win.
Eagles defensive backs haven't been together long enough to be considered a unit, like the previous years with Brian Dawkins, anchoring, a group with Sheldon Leonard and a couple of others that were traded in the past few years.
1. Dallas should win if the game is straight forward football.
2. Eagles will win if some strange plays unfold--like DeDean Jackson's return.
Ray Didinger is the best analyst in Philly. He's going with the Eagles by about four points, more so, on the fact that he doesn't see the Eagles losing 5 straight home games. Google his column: ray didinger eagles cowboys preview to read his lengthy opinion.
He lays out all the facts that I've omitted; he writes much better than I.
Cheers!
