if we beat dallas on the road, we are for real
especially with our gimpy D; i see three outcomes:
Dallas wins big (their O overwhelms our D, their D slows our O down pretty good)
Close, high scoring game (both O’s dominate)
SD wins by 7-10; we dominate on O, and we gamble on D and get some stops, enough to win
I cannot see us winning big; no way we stop their offense
