Happy gameday, gents!

I’m certainly not cocky because of the whole “any given Sunday” aspect of pro football, but I just feel very confident in the Cowboys ability to win this game comfortably. It’s becoming a week to week feeling for me, where I go into games expecting the Cowboys to find a way to get it done. Because as Sturm has repeatedly pointed out…..what the Cowboys do is repeatable and sustainable.

We’re so damn consistent in what we do and I just don’t see this Minnesota team disrupting our flow.

They don’t have the weapons or style of play to exploit out secondary. They’ll hit some plays here and there, but unless they have the game of their lives, they’re not carving us up like Roethlisberger and Cousins.

So with that in my I think this will be a relatively stress free game.

Cowboys 31
Vikings 17

Dak will have a somewhat quiet, but efficient game. Around 200 yards and 1 TD. But our running game is going to roll. 200 plus yards combined.

Oh, and our DEFENSE is going to get two turnovers and a score. I'm thinking a DeMarcus Lawrence strip sack, recovered by Maliek Collins for the TD.

You heard it here first. Call your bookie.

Vikings will make things tough on our offense for a while, but I think they'll be playing from behind from the beginning and doing so with a very limited offense.

Our defense isn't playing great right now, but our bend-but-don't-break style has managed to keep teams with better offenses out of the endzone all year long, so I don't expect that to change with against this limited group.

11-1, here we come.

Zimmer possibly not coaching might make a big difference. I hope they put that wimp Shurmur in charge instead of Sparano. I fully expect a lot of trickery.

I think Zimmer will be there. He will probably be wearing a patch or custom glasses. Torn retinas stabilize within 48 hours of a surgical procedure. 24 hours is still pretty safe if the eye is guarded.
