    It's Philly, this is a question you know the answer to. Most passionate fans in the league.

    Thinking of calling off work just so I can stay home and watch this classic tonight, but it'd be too suspicious..It's almost like calling in sick for the super bowl or something, everyone knows about it and is talking about it, so yeah as a known football fan at work I'm screwed...Just gotta DVR it and pray no one ruins the result for me I guess.

    Better believe it m8.

    With Dez coming back, you guys will have your hands full. Do you stack the box to slow Zeke down, leaving Dez with single coverage? Or do you double Dez and leave 1 less man for Zeke to run through. Oh and there's these guys named Cole Beasley (who I think will be the x-factor) and Jason Witten. I'd be nervous if I were you guys.

    Not nervous at all, only thing I am worried about is stopping Zeke. I'm not worried about Dez at all. As good as Dallas' O Line is, the Eagles throughout the past few years haven't had much trouble getting by them.

    Mills has stuck in there with better receivers this year than Dez. With Bradham and Hicks on the field, they should be able to contain Witten and the rest of the flat.

    This game is probably going to be the most exciting game of the season so far, I can't wait.

    Alls I'm sayin homie is the Bengals and Packers were prolly sayin the same things, and you see what we did to them WITHOUT Dez :emoji_wink:

    Nah it'll def be the best game of the year for both teams, but like you, I'm not too nervous.

    I am curious tho, from the pov of an eagles fan, would you rather play against Dak or Romo?

    Definitely Romo, we've owned Romo in the last 2 years.

    Another question to the Eagles fans: which NFC East team do you dislike the most?

    Personally, I f---ing LOATHE your team. Like I don't like the Giants and Redskins either, obvs, but I have a special hatred for the Eagles that makes these games that much more exciting. Is the feeling mutual? Or do you prefer to hate the Giants/Redskins?

    I hate Dallas. All their fans around Philly are the most obnoxious, attention starved people in the world.

    I hate the Giants as well but we beat them pretty much every time we play recently. And I hate the Redskins but I almost pity them because on my lifetime they've never been a threat a side from two years lol

    Eagles fans should definitely be worried about Dez. If there's one achillies heel to your defense, it's your corners and Dez has a tendency to perform very well against philly. Running game doesn't need to be great but efficient. Redskins were able to run rampant on you guys so we should have success there. Defense needs to just avoid giving up big plays. They've done a pretty good job with that so far. Also, put Lawrence across from whoever Lane Johnson's back up is. That guy is horrendous lol Lawrence should have a field day with him.

    Big V didn't allow a sack against the Vikings, who are the best D in the league. Dak and Dez haven't played well together yet and I don't think a month off will improve that. Our front 7 is the best you guys will have played so far, one bad game against Wash doesn't really take any confidence away from me about them. Dak hasn't had to play in many close games or from behind, I expect him to slip up. We own you guys in Dallas.

    Sacks don't tell the whole story. He's allowed tons of quarterback pressures and has been really poor in run blocking as well. Hence why his overall pro football Focus grade is 39.9 (38.6 in pass blocking and 45.8 in run blocking). Lawrence should definitely have his way with him.

    Dez had a 100 yard game vs Washington before he got injured. Dak and him were hooking up well that game. Your corners haven't played very well so I don't think Dez/Dak will have a problem hooking up unless the cowboys O Line loses its battle.

    Also worth noting that Cowboys secondary has been balling out so far this year (Carr, Claiborne, Church and Jones). Wentz has been throwing some really erratic passes the past couple weeks.

    Wentz only really started forcing passes last week, he calmed down after the 1st quarter.
