That's true. DAL always has issues beating good teams. Well, since Garrett became HC anyway.
I just thought the spread would be closer to a field goal, what with the issues the Patriots have shown stopping the run, coupled with their problems on offense. I guess we'll see what happens.
I know that if I were the Cowboys, I'd run Zeke 20 times in the first half. See if Bill has figured out how to stop big, fast, physical RBs yet. But I have no faith that Garrett has a good game plan going into the game and he'll probably be completely out-coached before half-time. [Reply]

I hear you. No team other than the Ravens have scored more than 14 points, and other than the Ravens, no team has really run roughshod over them. They started to show issues againt the run in the Browns game, then the Ravens wrecked 'em, but it seemed pretty well clenaed up after the first quarter of the Eagles game.
We'll see, but I have reason to think that the defense against the run is and will be fine going forward after a shaky couple of outings.

You mean other than the Bills (22-135yds, 6.1 yards/carry)and the Redskins (20-145yds, 7.25 yards/carry). [Reply]

But what difference does it make. AB ain't playing for ANYONE until the Commish lets him, but doesn't seem likely anytime soon. To me, the only way ANY team signs him is if NFL HQ informs them that they will not suspend him immediately upon him being returned to an NFL roster. Otherwise, why even bother?
That's Lieutenant Colonel defending Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots to you, sir
