What Some Cowboys Fans are Thinking :

https://cowboyszone.com/threads/cowboys-vs-panthers-week-1-breakdown.413403/  

If you're too lazy to click  heres a summary:

- Cowboys still lead the all time series 9 wins - 4 losses 

- Both our offense and defense team stats from last year are very simular 

- We both have significant O-line players out for this game, and we both have a notable defender out on a suspension 

- They think their defense is vastly improved/better

- Admitted they dont have the best WR situation

- Admitted we vastly improved our WR situation

Some quotes from the comments section

"A loss would be hugely disappointing. With as injured as their O line is, if this defense is even average we should be able to shut them down."

"Guys this will not be a road game at all. We will have more fans as them"

"Their godawful O-line against our new and improved D-line is a matchup I really want to see. We could make Cam's life really suck."

"Poe and Short concern me the most. Connor has struggled against power and Looney isn't Fredbeard. If they push the line of scrimmage and let Kuechly get going downhill, could be a long day for Zeke."

"I love opening on the road. Pressure is 100% on the Panthers to hold serve—"

"Panthers fans are being extremely arrogant and really downplaying our defense and receivers in their forum"

"I'm in the foothills of NC, can't stand Newton."

Dallas will only have one starter from the offensive line out next Sunday, Travis Frederick.

Tyron Smith, Connor Williams, Zack Martin, and La'el Collins have been cleared. Smith had a good training camp/preseason and Martin only had a bruised knee.

Can’t wait for Moton and Daryl to stonewall their Dline and peak Cam Newton slice up their terrible secondary through the air.

Front Seven has been monstrous against the run in preseason. Should easily shut down Zeke and force Dak to pass. While he’s a better passer than given credit (much like Cam), he’s not in elite tier yet and our defense should be able to handle him.

Curtis Samuel will be going off as long as the Panthers play him. Our receivers, CMC, and Norv Turner is gonna be so fun to watch.

Cam plays like he has all preseason (which basically looked like a continuation from his performance against the Saints in the playoffs) he’ll easily be bringing up an easy dub at home.

Even with our OLine being what it is....the panthers are not a good matchup for them. 

I think they struggle to put together drives and I think Cam/Norv find their rhythm. I’m not sure if they have an answer for CMC on a Texas route and I also think our WR’s win more often than not against them also. Olsen eats all day as well  

 

I think Panthers grind them down and pull away 24-13

I think the coaching in this game is more interesting than the personnel.

Jason Garrett played under Norv Turner and Dallas' current offense is actually a variation of what Norv did in Dallas in the 90s. Student vs. teach matchups are always fun.

Kris Richard is being groomed to take over Dallas' defense and when he was in Seattle, the Panthers and Seahawks made for good games.

It should be an entertaining matchup, one way or the other.

They sound kinda misinformed about our oline situation. They might not have a clue about Moton or how bad Matt was, or how huge it would be if D. Williams plays. 

Well, heck most Panthers fans probably aren't informed about our Oline given the huge swing in the situation today....

So we worry about a rookie in Conner Williams and Martin on a bum knee? Nah I think our front 7 can handle that. Then u have to make sure a wr will get open that quick.

 

Lol, it was just a clarification. Nothing more, nothing less.

    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.  
    • They will still be a playoff team but they aren't contenders anymore IMO. They won't be able to spend like they have when they went to a SB and proved he couldn't carry a win at that level with a really good team around him. Now he is going to have to do it with less to spend around him. They just locked in to being a playoff bound team that's going to be a known speed bump for whoever will represent the NFC in the SB.
    • Hmm. I think he'll live up to it. Last year, about half of his team was on IR it seems, at one time or another. Year before, Super Bowl appearance. Year before that, playoff run after being third on the depth chart and being pressed into service. Is he one of the greatest in the game right now? Nope. No chance of that. Is he in the top 10 going into next season? Pretty good chance of that.  Would 20 or more teams in this league love to have the guy as their starting QB. Most likely so. He's a good QB who can implement his coach's game plan to a T and has both the confidence of and confidence in his teammates. That'll take you a long way in this league if you've got the right cast around you, and he does.
