GO Cowboys!!! 3-5 (wins ~ losses)
Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles (away team ~ home team)
Sunday, November 11th at 7:20 PM CST on NBC
I was at the game Monday night, when we lost to the Tennessee Titans. Yes, we lost to the Tennessee Titans. Tears.
When we recovered three fumbles and our newest team member, Amari Cooper, scored a TD, I was high-fiving everyone around me and could not have been more excited. Then, it all went downhill. If you like the saying, "It's not how you start, it's how you finish" - you're struggling as a Cowboys fan right now. And have been for the past 20 years.

We have a great game plan for the first quarter of every game. Then we go flat and look like we're lost. By doing this, you leave your Defense on the field a lot. They fatigue and can't hold off the other teams Offense, hence, the Cowboys lose. It's a team sport.
Jerry Jones. He's taken a lot of heat this week from former Cowboys players, media, and just about everyone in Dallas. I know we can't fire our Owner, but he is the only Owner and GM in the NFL. I definitely think he should be fired as GM. He needs to see what can happen when you have an outsider bring accountability into the system. Jerry is accountable to no one.
What could be worse?
We play our arc rival, the Philadelphia Eagles this week, in Philly, and will probably lose.
Despite winning the Super Bowl last year, the Eagles have struggled a bit this season. They're sitting at 4-4, just behind the Washington Redskins at 5-3. The Cowboys are 3-5. And the New York Giants are last in our division at 1-7. Sadly, even if we were last, we gave up our 1st round draft pick for Cooper. Tears, again.
Top 3 Eagles Players:
1. Carson Wentz, QB (Quarterback). He's thrown 13 TD's and 2 INT (interceptions) this season. He's able to run, but is coming off knee surgery. Even w/out Sean Lee, our Defense should be able to get pressure on him. We just have to have enough of an Offense so our D doesn't run out of gas.
2. Zach Ertz, TE (Tight End). He's one of the only TE's worth having in fantasy football, sadly I don't have him on my team. This dude has 644 yards and 3 TD's. The Eagles don't have much of a run game, so they rely a lot on their WR's and Ertz.
3. Golden Tate, WR (Wide Receiver). The Eagles newest receiver, this is his first game to play as an Eagle. He was acquired from the Detroit Lions at the same time Dallas took Amari Cooper from the Raiders. Some wondered why we didn't get him instead, but it is what it is. Our Dallas Secondary has some bad blood with Tate, so look for Awuzie, Jones, Smith and Vander Esch to be all over him!
I HOPE this is a good game. Even when we stink, we play the Eagles harder than anyone because they're a rival and we want to beat them. We also play them twice a year, so you'd think they'd be easier to draw up a game plan against.
One would think... Cowboys 12 ~ Eagles 21

Thoughts...
If you live in Texas. You know it's freezing. Yes, anything below 50 degrees in Texas = Freezing.
Stay warm. Bundle up. Drink a lot of hot drinks. And remember to pray for, and tangibly help, those who are homeless, or don't have enough winter items to stay warm.
If you have extra coats or winter items, The Bridge downtown would gladly accept them and distribute to those in need.
I am sure there are a lot of places near your house too that could use them! Here are a few more places I know of...
