1. Prescott is no Rogers, but GBay Oline not Dallas O-Line;

2. If the Cowboys aren't up for a Skins/Cowboys game on Thanksgiving, they deserve a beat down. Division rivalries are never trap games.

3. If both teams show-up and play mistake free football, I think we beat them. These two teams are pretty evenly matched and, although neither D is a world beater, I think ours is the better one if ...

4. Tackling is going to be key for our D. Wrap folks up, take good angles, swarm to the ball. While I think it has improved as the season progressed, tackling is one of the first things to suffer when fatigue sets in - which becomes a vicious circle (bad tackling leads to more opposing first downs, more time on the field, more fatigue, worse tackling ...rinse and repeat).

Dallas has had a pretty easy schedule. Pittsburg, Baltimore, Philly and the Giants being their toughest tests outside our first game with them. They convincingly beat up on some poor teams (which is what good teams do).

They are beatable but we need to stop Elliot (see above on tackling) and figure a way to overcome their Oline advantage against our D.

This is a pretty evenly matched game (statistically speaking), and I think it is going to come down to the team that makes fewer mistakes and has the better "want to." I think we will be the team that has the better "want to" but am not convinced we will make fewer mistakes.
