This is an open thread for both games.

I hate the Eagles

the cards are already irrelevant

as they are not going to need a wildcard spot, so let’s hope they put the Iggles further out

by scottmaui on Nov 27, 2008 7:35 PM CST reply actions 0 recs

We want Cards

More losses for the Eagles the better.

I am in trouble, I am playing Westbrook in fantasy football..

Eagles aren't making the playoffs even if they win out

In Romo we Trust

Yeah, I'm not worried.

Even if they win every game, we still control our own destiny, playing them week 17.

Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.

by jsams on Nov 27, 2008 7:52 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

We don't control our own destiny. We need Atlanta, Washington and Tampa Bay to start losing games.

I meant concerning the Eagles.

Where were these Cards when Dallas had them?

Same thing I ask myself about the Rams.

had to put my son to bed...

do we have any update on Ware/Barber???

I have noticed a new resurgence in Cowboy hating in 2007, which can only mean one thing- We're back.

Well it looks like the Warner for MVP talk can end now

This looks to be 2 straight eggs he’s laid.

by mhuff13 on Nov 27, 2008 9:11 PM CST reply actions 0 recs

I'm telling ya

if Cowboys make the playoffs, Romo can easily win the league MVP.

Warner will fade, Brees is playing on a non playoff team in all likihood and Collins doesn’t have the numbers.

In Romo we Trust

by Terry on Nov 27, 2008 9:15 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

Are you kidding me?

They’ll give it to bus driver Eli before Romo.

by mhuff13 on Nov 27, 2008 9:20 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

no, Eli won't have the numbers either

In Romo we Trust

by Terry on Nov 27, 2008 9:22 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

Who needs numbers

When you’re the ‘in’ player in the NFL right now, playing for a New York based team.

by mhuff13 on Nov 27, 2008 9:24 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

you need good numbers to win MVP

In Romo we Trust

by Terry on Nov 27, 2008 9:46 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

That and not be from Dallas

I’m with you on Romo man. I’m just telling you, they WON’T give it to him.

by mhuff13 on Nov 27, 2008 9:52 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

That and Favre will definately get it before Romo

by mhuff13 on Nov 27, 2008 9:53 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

Hmm Intersting...

Dallas leads the league in sacks with 40. How many did they have last year?

~Texas Massacre 08~

by TheHeat on Nov 27, 2008 9:26 PM CST reply actions 0 recs

46

And we’re 1 up on Philly and 2 up on Pittsburgh, with them to play this week.

I’ll take it though. Those are great numbers after 12 games.

by mhuff13 on Nov 27, 2008 9:28 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

And Romo can make...

just checked out the long range weather

for the Steelers game, right now they’re calling for snow and 37 degrees.

We’re going to have to run the ball this game, although Romo being a Wisconson kid, I’m sure he’s used to playing in cold weather.

I’m going to freeze my azz off.

In Romo we Trust

You gonna be there?

And that means we definitely need MB3.

Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.

by jsams on Nov 27, 2008 9:59 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

Who cares if it's cold and snowy. It's the wind that will affect the passing game

I’ve seen plenty of teams pass like crazy in cold and snow. Just ask Favre.

Steelers

What’s their weakness? Offense?

by Cal in DC on Nov 27, 2008 10:35 PM CST reply actions 0 recs

Their offensive line has played like crap this year

And Ben has played TERRIBLE against the only good teams he’s played.

by mhuff13 on Nov 27, 2008 10:45 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

They can’t stop anyone from penetrating. I doubt they muster much offense against us.
Unfortunately, the Steelers have a rock-solid run defense and a pass D that destroys QBs and forces them into mistakes.

if there is anything that i hate more than iggles and giants fans...

it’s steelers fans…they are everywhere out here…almost as deep as cowboy fans…and huge homers…cheer every first down….every one yard fullback plunge…every punt…..sweet jesus i hate steeler fans…..

man i’m going to have my game face for this game…please believe it…if we go to pittsburgh, in the snow, and beat the steelers, our bandwagon is going to get overcrowded….

Tuna you from near Pittsburgh?

I grew up pretty close to there, been to a dozen or so games at 3 Rivers.

They are obnoxious. Most of my family is Steeler fans =(

by mhuff13 on Nov 28, 2008 1:01 AM CST up reply actions 0 recs

nah. i live in sac....

but for some reason, they are deep out here. real deep. and their fans are rabid. usually, the only fans that rival cowboy fans out here are the steeler fans. I hafta give it up to them: they are committed. throwback jerseys. women who know the game. little kids. terrible towels. ugh. i vomit a little in my mouth everytime i think about it.
