Have I mentioned how much I am dreading this game? As I wrote yesterday, it’s highly doubtful the Cowboys are going to lose two in a row in their shiny new stadium. And even if the Panthers were playing here at home, I have my doubts on whether or not they would win.
Although they certainly looked better last week than they did in week 1, until they finally get a “W” all the “good effort” in the world won’t change the deteriorating confidence level Panthers fans have with starting QB Jake Delhomme. The question is: Do his teammates feel the same way?
Game time is 8:30 ET, and it will be broadcast on ESPN.
Update: Early on it looked like this game was going to be a pretty good defensive battle, but the Cats choked in the second half and the Cowboys won the game 21-7.

Moved from the yesterday’s NFL game open thread. –ST
ST:
I won’t have time to follow any open thread on the Dallas-Carolina game tonight, but I predict Dallas 20 Carolina 13.
But Jim may be right. This Cowboy team is at best a 7-9 team, and I have been following the Boys since 1970. It’s been a long time since I have seen a Dallas team that was as much empty hype as this one.
Dump Jerry “666? Jones!

….2:00 until the half, and still no score.
**GO PANTERS!**
I’m with MDS on the prediction of the Cowboys’ record. It’ll be a pleasant surprise if they can finish .500. Everything I’ve seen so far tells me this is one very inconsistent team.
Actually, I haven’t seen much hype about the team this year. But they’d have to really stink out the stadium to match the 1-15 team I remember from a few years ago.
Fear not Sister, you are not the worst team in the NFC South, that title belongs to my beloved Buc’s, I am old and wore out, but I think I will sign up for the quarter back job next week!! The Buc’s gave them a run, and we stink, hopefully You’re team will be Panthers and not kittens!! 7 pt spread I hear for the D-men! Rut Ro
Brian, tonight’s game is all over but the crying
That pick-six was just painful. Sorry, ST.
Be thankful you get the Bucs twice.
Oh, that was painful. Four three-and-outs in the third quarter? Have a virtual glass of wine while you cry yourself to sleep, ST.
Can’t anybody on the Panthers bleeping TACKLE?
Not on the offensive line, no
Meow….
Well, the O-line isn’t supposed to tackle – that’s called “holding.”
Carolina’s big problem was with lousy defensive tackling… Well, that and Delhomme’s continued poor play and Smith acting like a prima donna. Someone needs to have a talk with him.
Dallas tackled poorly, too. It’s surprising how many teams ignore the basics and then wind up paying the price for it. In any event, I don’t see Dallas going far in the playoffs – if they get there.
Well, you know what I mean
I thought our offense was worse than our defense.
I saw a little of the game. and it was coyote-ugly on both sides.
I also saw the offensive pass interference call against Carolina that took a TD off the board. That was pretty weak.
Bottom line: I don’t think either team covered itself in glory. Better hold off on buying those Superbowl tickets.
