Dallas Cowboys Preview Week 10

GO COWBOYS!!!


Week 10 Matchup: Dallas Cowboys vs New Orleans Saints (in NO - since they're the 2nd team listed) - GAME TIME - Sunday, 7:30 PM CST

 Oh when the Saints come marching in... with Drew Brees. 

 Drew Brees (Saints QB) - this guy is an Elite QB. To keep it brief, he is a top 5 QB - holds a few NFL passing records and seems like a stand up guy outside of football. He played all last season without his head coach and still went 7-9. He is a leader and someone our Defense will need to put a lot of pressure on! Similar to Romo, Brees always makes a play and finds his WR's.

 Saints Offense - Darren Sproles (RB) - dude is playing very well - if he's healthy - he will play this week! Jimmy Graham (TE) - well this guy will tear up our Dallas D if we let him! Must stop Jimmy Graham! 

 Tony Romo (our QB) - We know Romo can throw. He's proven that he can hit his targets (WR's, TE's, RB's). He will have a lot of pressure from the Saints Defense. The Defensive Coordinator for the Saints, Rob Ryan, was our DC last year. He knows Romo well and will use that intel to attack our Offense from every angle. This will be a tough test for our team! We really need Dez Bryant and Jason Witten to have monster game! 

 DeMarco Murray (our RB) - He should play this week. He is still not as dynamic as we all hoped, but we have to have somewhat of a Run Game this week. If we use Randal more, I am fine with it. The Saints D is ranked 25th in the league against the Run. Sadly - this is a part of our team no one has faith in. 

 Dallas Defense - DeMarcus Ware is coming back!!! (This is our "Sack Leader" - means he puts a lot of pressure on the opposing QB and tackles him before he can throw the ball) Our D has had a few great plays this season. They have kept us in the game for the most part, but they have also had some big mistakes. It will take perfection to defeat Drew Brees and the Saints. So, Here's to Perfection! :)

 Standings... We are 1st in the NFC East at 5-4 with all the other teams in our division creeping up on us! This game is a must win! We have to stay above .500!

GO MAVS!!!

Mavs beat the Lakers Tuesday night, 123-104!! That's what I'm talking about! 

 They did lose to the OKC Thunder last night, but that's because Kevin Durant is a beast. We have to find a way to guard him in the future! (near future) 

~ Dirk is still amazing, Monta Ellis is keeping it real with an avg of 24 Points Per Game, and DeJuan Blair is proving to be a great Center (we got him when we didn't get Dwight Howard - dude who passed us up to go to Houston).  

 Mavs are 3-2 on the Season... here are the upcoming games. 
Fri, Nov 8 7:00 PM
Sat, Nov 9 7:30 PM

Dirk Nowitzki ~ Dallas Cowboys Free Agency ~ Texas Rangers ~ Selection Sunday ~ Loveland, CO

GO MAVS!!! 27-36  (wins - losses) Dirk, Dirk, he's our man... if he can't do it... no one can!!!  Well, only 5 other guys can and have.  Dirk is now 6th on the all time list of NBA players to score 30,000 points . This is a crazy accomplishment. He's played over 1,300 games in his 19 year career with the Dallas Mavericks.  His commitment to this team and to our city has been life changing for many. He does a lot in our community through the Dirk's Heroes Foundation . Fundraising and giving grants to non-profits in our community and around the world that are making an impact in the lives of children and families in need.  Back in the day, the Mavs games were fun to watch with the " Three J's " - but we didn't win a lot, and we never thought we would make it to the playoffs consistently, much less to the NBA Finals. ( Three J's: Jimmy Jackson, Jamal Mashburn, Jason Kidd - here's a funn...

Dallas Mavs ~ Texas Rangers ~ Thoughts on the Super Bowl ~ Dallas is Freezing

Dallas  Mavericks 13-14 (wins-losses) I feel like we've been on a rollercoaster with the Mavs, but I like the direction we're going now. As for how NBA and NFL players feel about our cold weather... that's a funnier story. The Mavs longest stretch of losses was six games in mid-January. It was not fun and the team looked confused as to why they couldn't pull out a win.  A few guys have been out, off and on, due to illness or injury, but now they're all back and are rolling. Especially Kristaps Porzingis .  They keep joking that he's playing how he did back in September 2020 when they were in the NBA bubble, before his knee injury. Now that he has healed and is playing more minutes per game, he has been on fire! To see a 7'3" guy drain 3 pointers like he does is amazing. I mean, if he raises his arms, they're already above the rim, so he just has to put the right arc on it and swish. So cool!  His stats vs. the Pelicans in Friday night's victory:...

Rangers lose Game 1

GO RANGERS!!! Rangers lose to the Kansas City Royals, 2-1. Their pitching was spectacular. Our pitching wasn't too bad, but yet again, we couldn't hit against Santana! (that was KC's pitcher) The Rangers are 7 games behind Oakland to win the Division. Clearly we probably won't catch up to them, but we can still get a Wild Card spot if they ever start winning consistently!  Game 2 in KC is tomorrow night - Matt Garza is pitching for the Rangers!  Cheer Loudly!  GO COWBOYS!!! 12:00 PM - this Sunday - St. Louis Rams vs Dallas Cowboys.  Enjoy your family, friends and some football!!! :) "Day of Rest" Random Info: The two teams who have already secured a spot in the Playoffs are:  ~ Boston Red Sox (we used to have Mike Napoli  - he is a great Home Run hitter and now plays for Boston... his beard fits in perfectly there)  ~ LA Dodgers (We like their Manager - Don Mattingly  - he used to play for the NY Yankees back in the day!)  ...
