The Dallas Cowboys hope to avenge an early season loss to the
Philadelphia Eagles on Christmas Eve and have a chance to clinch a
playoff spot if they win and the New York Giants lose. Dallas can also
mathematically eliminate the Eagles from playoff competition as well
with a defeat.
Owner Jerry Jones has already stated he is scared of the Eagles and here is a look at the players Dallas should be afraid of.
LeSean McCoy
LeSean McCoy has 1,274 rushing yards on the season and 17 touchdowns.
He ran for 185 of those yards against the Dallas Cowboys. He also ran
for two of his touchdowns against Dallas. Sure, he did it with the
Cowboys losing defensive starters Sean Lee and Mike Jenkins but he did
it anyway. McCoy is the man the Cowboys must stop if they want to gain
vengeance on the Eagles.
Michael Vick
At the start of the season, people asked who you would rather have in
fantasy football between Aaron Rodgers and Michael Vick. Now, people
question if Vick is even worth starting in fantasy football. Vick has
struggled with injuries and recently suffered the same rib injuries that
Tony Romo did earlier in the season. However, Vick sat out and let them
heal. Last time against Dallas, Vick threw for 279 yards with two
touchdowns. Dallas has allowed 20 touchdowns to opposing quarterbacks.
Once they stop McCoy, they have to contain Vick.
Jason Babin
It is interesting. A few weeks ago, DeMarcus Ware and Jared Allen were
battling for the 2011 sack crown and both men had Michael Strahan's
record in their cross-hairs. Now, it looks like neither man will reach
it and someone new has passed them both in the sack race. Jason Babin
has back-to-back three sack games heading into the Dallas matchup. When
he played Dallas last time, he had two sacks. With eight sacks in the
last three weeks, Babin could be the man to break the record.
