Miami Dolphins vs Dallas Cowboys Spread Thanksgiving Day Football Game 2011: Is there an upset in the Arlington air? Doesn’t it seem like ages ago when the (3-7) Miami Dolphins [+7] were 0-7 and talking about “Suck for Luck”? Three wins later, the Fins have finally found their pride and aren’t “sucking” for anyone, not even for the Stanford quarterback or the NFL Points Spreads favorite (6-4) Dallas Cowboys [-7].
Looking to play the role of spoiler, Tony Sparano & Co. will go into Cowboys Stadium looking to knock Tony Romo and the ‘Boys out of first place in the NFC East. Kickoff for this Thanksgiving Day Football Game is scheduled to get underway at 4:15 PM ET live on CBS Sports.
With an overall record of 5-1 in Thanksgiving Day games, the Dolphins seem poised to give Jason Garrett & Co. all that they can handle. With victories over Kansas City, Buffalo and Washington, Miami has regained its swagger. After starting winless, the Dolphins are now on the verge of tying the longest win streak in franchise history in three seasons.
After losing starting quarterback, Chad Henne for the remainder of the season, Miami’s year seemed doomed. However, Matt Moore has come in and done a great job leading this offense, who now believes they can play against anyone in the league. This should be a great test, as the Fins face a stiff test going up against Dallas Big “D”.
“[Moore] is a huge, huge difference-maker, [he’s] reason we've been successful these past few games,” Reggie Bush said. “Matt's just playing lights out. He's playing amazing. He's throwing great balls. He's a leader. He's poised. He is everything you need.”
For the Boys, their season also got off to not such a hot start, with Romo single-handedly losing easy games and taking plenty of criticism. After all the offensive woes, the Cowboys come into this week ranked in the top 10 in every single, significant offensive category. Their success has catapulted them to the top of the NFC East, as they find themselves knotted up with the New York Giants for first place.
"We're not real concerned about the standings right now," Garrett said. "We're concerned about the Miami Dolphins at our place at 3:15 on Thursday. Everybody kind of chuckles when I say that, but it's the truth. That's what our focus is. This game will be here before you know it, so you have to be focused on that."
