The Fan hosts give their predictions for this week against the Philadelphia Eagles:
Kevin:
Cowboys Will Win If: The intensity and dreaded word of "execution" are anywhere near what they were in Rams or last Philly game
Cowboys Will Lose If: They fall back into the pattern of special teams errors or turnover traps that flip the game
Prediction: Cowboys win, 31-14
Cory:
Cowboys Will Win If: Jason Garrett finds a way to motivate his team to play to their talent level. They have a propensity to "sniff themselves" and after stomping the Rams, I feel like they migh think that's good enough. It's not, and the players need the mindset that what they've done isn't enough.
Cowboys Will Lose If: They let Carson Wentz finish long drives. Wentz has finished 21 10-play scoring drives, 8 in the last three games. The Cowboys need to force turnovers and get their offense back on the field to grind down the Eagles defense.
Prediction: Cowboys win, 28-26
Jared:
Cowboys Will Win If: Dak's shoulder is good and they expose the Eagles penchant for giving up the big play while putting Wentz in tough positions to try and be a hero.
Cowboys Will Lose If: They don't force Wentz to sustain long drives during which he is bound to make a mistake.
Prediction: Cowboys Win, 31-23
Gavin:
Cowboys Will Win If: The defense comes to play like it did in week 15.
Cowboys Will Lose If: They take the Eagles lightly in the game plan and on field intensity.
Prediction: Cowboys 24-23. The Eagles are getting healthier and the Cowboys haven't been a good road team all year.
Mike:
Cowboys Will Win If: They play average football. Which they will.
Cowboys Will Lose If: They play like they have six times this year.
Prediction: Cowboys win.
Sterling:
Cowboys Will Win If: The defense keeps the Eagles' backs & tight ends in check. O-line and D-line dominate like last week.
Cowboys Will Lose If: "Sniff themselves" after one good game. They tackle poorly and let the Eagles extend drives on third down. Offense can't execute. Get redzone FGs instead of TDs
Prediction: Eagles 23 - Cowboys 20
