THE OFFICIAL 2024 - 2025 DALLAS COWBOYS SEASON THREAD || MEH

Was good watching 'The Great Wall of Dallas' on NFL Network but difficult at the same time.


Damn...feels like just yesterday...
:smokin :eek :{ :lol |I all at the same time, Cowboys nostalgia at its best for me. Actually gave me an extra drop of hope that Princeton knows what he is doing with this current edition of Cowboys.

"U ain't got no Boosie in u you're all talk"-Sean Lee to Mo Claiborne earlier today

Yikes. I don't mind Sean Lee calling Claiborne out though. Seems like he's extremely comfortable in the trainers room.

EDIT: He's definitely calling Mo soft :lol
Boosie tho........8o :lol
 
We have to win the division if we want to make the playoffs. I don't think 2 teams make it out of the NFC East.

The Wild Card spots are still open but this might be one of those years where 10-6 doesn't get you in especially with the way Carolina & SF are playing right now. Add N.O. to mix, they hold the tie breaker over us, I can see all 3 of those teams finishing 11-5.

Going 3-1 down the stretch is a must for us.
 
Cutler is out for Sunday. Weather is supposed to be pretty cold. We gotta pound that rock with Murray and check their big wideouts.

Draya needs to keep doing whatever she's doing :lol
 
Brandon Marshall: I don't like playing vs Brandon Carr​

Instead of providing bulletin-board material for an opponent, Chicago Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall opted for flattery.

When asked about a potential matchup against Dallas Cowboys cornerback Brandon Carr on Monday night, Marshall said Thursday he's not looking forward to it.

"I don't like playing against Brandon Carr," Marshall said, per The Dallas Morning News. "He presents a lot of tough challenges throughout a game. You'll notice he changes up his game when he plays against bigger receivers. He's strong. He's physical. He plays that way against guys like myself.

"I absolutely hate the matchup. It's like playing chess out there with him. Every single play is a battle. He just makes you work so hard."

Carr had several solid games earlier in the season, but since a Week 8 encounter when he got smoked by the Calvin Johnson -- the receiver with the skill set closest to what Carr will face Monday night -- he's been mostly average.

The Cowboys corner declined to say who he'll guard when asked Thursday on NFL Network's "Around the League Live" if he'd match up with Marshall or streaking stud Alshon Jeffery. Carr did say that if given a choice, he'd opt for the devil he knows.

"I'll go with Brandon Marshall," Carr said. "I've faced him a lot of times throughout my career. That would be a good matchup. But I guess we'll see who checks who on Monday."

We've contemplated multiple times recently whether or not Jeffery has surpassed Marshall as the Bears' best receiver.

The difficulty in differentiating the two receivers is muddied because teams continue to roll coverage toward Marshall and allow Jeffery to dominate one-on-one matchups.

"Teams now have to play fair," Marshall said. "He's starting to put on tape and show the NFL that the Chicago Bears have two wide receivers that can dominate, so if you want to double me or roll coverage, Alshon is going to be on the other side, licking his chops and taking advantage of each opportunity."

At some point, coaches will have to adjust. Jeffery's combination of size and speed are a mismatch on any team's No. 2 cornerback.

We could see a matchup Monday in which Carr takes on Marshall one-on-one and the Cowboys' defense rolls an extra defender toward Jeffery.

I like this match-up in our corners/safeties favor since Monte's a big zone guy the thing that kills us the most are speed guys IMO, while Marshall has it all I think Carr will keep him in check for the most part.

What's word around town on Moe C this week, anything outside of questionable... 8o  I want a 90%+ healthy Claiborne out there but at the same time he's suited up for 1 game since OCTOBER 28TH for a damn hamstring, this is getting a little out of hand.

Claiborne is comfortable in the training room (probably after witnessing Miles chill out there) and its been notated that he most likely wil not play.

With 31.7 million viewers, the Cowboys-Raiders game on Thanksgiving ranks as the most-watched show of the fall TV season
 
I know the draft is months away but what do you guys think of this Tre Mason (RB) kid from Auburn?
 
glad lee's gonna be out there for us tomorrow :Nthat

big game because if we can take this one against chicago, we have 2 struggling teams in GB & washington after that that we should be able to get. getting W's these next 3 games would be a great look going into week 17.
 
Washington is bad man. We could sweep the division this year :rollin

Definitely possible :lol

Regardless of what happens tomorrow, week 17 most likely will be a "Win and In" scenario. If we lose tomorrow, we may have to win out as I don't see the Eagles losing again prior to our week 17 matchup thanks to AP going down today.

EDIT:

IRVING, Texas – Dallas Cowboys cornerback Morris Claiborne has been ruled out of Monday’s game against the Chicago Bears , but wide receiver Dwayne Harris was able to take part in a limited portion of Saturday’s practice and is listed as questionable. Clairborne will miss his fourth game in the last five with hamstring injuries. He returned to play against the New York Giants on Nov. 24 but aggravated the injury in the game and has not been able to play since.
