If I had to choose, I'd rather the Cowboys win 10 consecutive Super Bowls than see the Packers win 1.

The biggest question mark is Dak Prescott. Until I see it in January, I'll be at least a little skeptical. Goes without saying, but the playoffs are a different breed. I'm not worried about the defense. GB wins if Dak is below his standard. Seriously, if Zeke gets 30+ carries, there's no way he's under 180 total yards. I cannot see GB slowing down this run game unless they want to get torched through the air and leave their UDFA corners on islands against Dez and Co.

It's not bad but compared to the NYG defense you can see why it's being phrased that way.

This will probably come down to Dallas' coaching...

I hope they understand that GB's offense needs to stay on the sideline as much as possible, and that, regardless, they are going to put up some points.

If Dallas tries to match them for points, the result will probably be a loss. If they play their game, though, and don't panic when they get down by a score or two, the offense should be able to put the game away in the 2nd half.

That's what Dallas is going to have to do in every playoff game, if they are to do anything significant...Be Patient, Don't get into a Pass First mentality even when behind by 6-10, Use Elliot and McFadden to batter the GB Defense.


Dallas will likely need to be mentally prepared for the game to be rather close until the 4th quarter or thereabouts. I don't think Dallas will "blow out" anyone in the playoffs, but they have a team that can win if they stick to their strengths.

GB just needs to keep playing their game like they have been for the last month or even yesterday for that matter.

Do that and we'll be alright.

I thought Randall was a first round draft choice, not a UFDA?

Defense doesn't need to playing well if Aaron Rodgers is playing godly. Which let's be honest, he is. Didn't do a bad job lighting up that so-called "really good" Giants defense without Jordy Nelson..

I see Dallas winning this one depending on the availability of some of GB's walking wounded from last night. If Dallas can play the clock game then they should be able to hold off Rodgers just enough to squeak by.

He's talking about where he had him on his draft board.

In all seriousness, outside of Gunter, most of our key secondary players were all draft picks. Sooooo yeah....
