I really hope they get dismantled by the Giants tomorrow(actually today). If so, the Packers have a cakewalk to the big show!

Jax was in the game till the last 5 minutes or so.
i said this before, do they call holding anymore?
i see linebackers and def. linemen with their shoulderpads hanging out o'ther jerseys no calls...
is this some new effort o make th egame more offensive?
cuz i don't like it.
there's holding on every play if you look, but some of the holding i've seen the last few weeks has been key to making big plays... that used to get a flag.

No upsets this weekend yet, I think today will be the day... Sorry Tex, but I think this one is the end of the road for Da Boyz. The G-men are 8-1 on the road this season, although, the one loss did come at Dallas. But last week the G-men D forced a good QB in Jeff Garcia to double his season int. total in just the last game with 2 picks...
I'd kinda like to see a Manning vs. Manning Super Bowl. I bet Archie would too.lol

Should be a high scoring affair, for sure. I *think* we'll have both Owens and Glen, so that should help--as long as Romo is Romo and not El Thumbo. It will a different than the group who went to Washington for the season closer, for sure.
As for the Pats, at least the bashtards didn't cover, so anyone who took Jax + points came out...
Holding, etc: I doubt I could play today's game...no this, no that... I would *owe* money by the end of the season, lol

Looks like it's not going to be Manning vs. Manning...unless he can do this 4th quarter comeback.

O.D., I mean T.O. is playing like he's not feelin' any pain... We have us a good game, so far. But it's kinda lookin' like to me Jerry Jones will be a happy camper at games end.

Don't worry about it too much Tex, you know how hard it is to beat the same team 3 in a row in one season.

Romo plays OK but the receivers & D let him down...
GO FAVRE, GO!
Don't forget the O-Line that gave him no protection

Sorry Tex. It was a very good game and i feel your pain especially the way The Steelers blew their game against Jax last week.

Iss all good, my bud. Lordy, the Cowboys will definitely be felt next season, now that Romo has a full season under his belt--as Brett nears his exit from the big stage. Is now time for all to get behind Brett. Hail the King! in his quest to smite Smug the Brady...

Of course everyone wants Brett to finish his career on a high note, but it's the Giant's pass rush that will make a win on sunday almost impossible. It also looks like Eli is comming into his own and has a flair for moving the giants offense when they need it.

Giants' pass rush didn't kill Romo--dropped passes right in the hands killed at least two TDs. Favre's got even more experience...doubt that will be a factor.
that's not football dominance. that's depending on luck.
i admit i haven't followed the Pack cuz they aren't NFC East, i've been a 'skins fan since i was in elem. school. this guy named Lombardi was the coach, and well people thought alot of him..
but the Giants are all beat up.
they let the cowboys convert almost every third down...
the Pack won't need many third downs IMO.

The Cowboys did'nt do anything in the 2nd half, how can you say the Giant D didn't have any effect. Maybe you were watching a different game than me.
The Boys would'nt have even had a last drive if the Giant secondary didn't drop the pass that hit the guy in the chest. Romo showed he's a glamor boy and nothing else. lol

LOL It's opinions of Romo like that that keep letting him take on teams that aren't ready for him.
Romo still gets jittery when it's all on the line but once that smooths out he is gonna be the best in the league.
Eli is finally starting to turn a corner here. He plays this well again next season and he might stop being Peytons little brother eh?
It'll be interesting to see if Ryan Grant has as much success against the Giants as Barber did. Grants isn't as physical a runner but he's got speed.
Barber is gonna be a monster next season if the Boys don't resign Jones. No reason they should to my mind. Let Barber be the go to guy and watch what happens.
Jag's against Patriots next week...Should be a good game too.

Barber was impressive in the first half, he's one of the reasons the Giants are all beat up...
that dude puts his head down and hurts people..
Lockman, you made my point, IMO. the giants shoulda won by alot more. they didn't.
the skins whooped the crapouta the cowboys and don't make excuses for 'em, they had the first team in... the 'boys had a good run all season, but they weren't the same team the last three weeks that they were at Thanksgiving...
i dunno why, cuz i don't watch 'em very much.
look at the giants injury list. it's really long...

Shoot it's -2 with -14 in wind chill just across the river.
They say by Friday we are looking at -15 with -40 wind chill.
11 degrees is nothing!

I heard it on the radio, maybe they they said -11... Man, that is crazy cold. Good Lord, how do you people stand it? I had to swing a sledge hammer some this past summer when it was 109, I forgot what the heat index was, but I would take that any day over -11.lol
