Eagles - Cowboys, How I see it...

Well its Dallas week, and I am pumped and ready for what should be a great game tonight.

Here is how I see it:

This is another must win for the Eagles. And I am going to come right out and say, I think they will win it and here is how and why.

1. The Eagles will exploit the main weakness that the Cowboys have - their pass defense stinks. After weeks of knocking on the door in the red zone, this is the week they finally kick in that door. Look for the Eagles, who know the Cowboys players very well, to exploit the safety area and look for Kevin Curtis to score a long TD tonight.

2. The Eagles have always done a great job of shutting down TO and I am pretty confident that thier run defense will do a fine job of keeping Marion Barber and Julius Jones in check (hey if you can shut down Adrian Peterson, you got my vote of confidence).

3. Gocong and Gaither - I think Jason Whitten is a huge key here, but the Eagles linebackers have done a pretty good job of taking the TE out of the game. The Vikings did get a TD from their TE positon last week, but that had more to do with the Eagles really trying to shut down Peterson.

4. I just dont think the Eagles can afford to lose this game and they know that. Even if they win, its not a 100% that they are making the playoffs, but I just think this is a better team then we have seen up to this point and we are seeing pieces of that each week. At home, Sunday night, TO is back....Eagles win.

Eagles 23 - Cowboys 17.
