What a weekend. First Canada wins and then the Seahawks cover and then the Jags beat the Steelers in a thriller. Then Eli and the Giants go into Tampa and beat a very rusty looking Bucs team. What was Gruden thinking benching most of his key starters for 2 weeks? Then to finish the week off the Chargers beat the Titans in a game which might of been a lot different if the Titans were healthy. I'm still not sold on Rivers, he played well today but he'll have a huge test next week.

Well... with the finely tuned defense, and unstoppable offense......

I predict a Patriots win :D B)

How come so many people in Surrey are bandwagon Patriots fans? There are a lot of Pats bandwagoners but so many Surrey people claim them as their team. It's quite pathetic.

Giants at my Cowboys kind of scares me, but the injuries they sustained vs the Pats in that last game will hurt them more vs the 'boys than it did against the Bucs. Even though Madison (?) was burned a few times by TO in the two regular season games. Cowboys just have a few simple things to do,

Offense

-Offensive line has to be as dominant as they have been all season. I believe the bye week helps them more than anyone else.

-If TO plays, and Glenn can start, it will instantly draw three secondary players to them (double team on TO), freeing up Witten and Crayton against single coverage. This will also free up draw plays to Barber/JJ, which should be money.

-Barber has to have a big day (Julius Jones will do squat, trust me). Romo will get his part done, but forcing him to throw on 3rd and long every possession will be asking for too much. If they can close it to within 3-4 yards on third down, the draw play, or Barber's power running should get them a first down much easier, something they haven't done in the past three games. Romo needs to start running too, which was one of his biggest strengths early this year and last. He seems to move away from that later in the seasons, which takes away a big weapon of his (element of surprise).

Defense

-Get pressure on Eli. Hit him early and often. DeMarcus Ware and Gregg Ellis have to have monster games. With the NYG O-line depleted, this should be a bit easier than previous games.

-Brady James has to shadow B Jacobs. The short passes to him killed the Bucs today. We can contain him on simple running plays though, since our NT's and DE's have been great vs the run this year.

-With Shockey out, Roy Williams won't be such a liability. Hopefully he can help out in isolating Burress/Toomer. With out two top CB's finally healthy at the same time, teams won't target Jaques Reeves for the crappy Cornerback he is.

Special Teams

-Nick Folk keep doing what your doing.

Let's go Cowboys!

The Browns would have put up a better fight that the Tit-ans on Sunday...curse those tiebreakers...

Edwards, Winslow, Anderson, and Lewis would have forced Philip Rivers to make a lot more plays.

Jags are on fire but I just cant see them beating the Pats, and SD will lose to the Colts.

Favre is playing injured so I heard and I can see this game going to OT with either team taking it.

Giants will take the lead early in the ballgame but the Cowboys will march back winning by a TD.

Who the hell are you? Why dont you elaborate on that? And please stop brown nosing EC while you are at it. Stop posting false assumptions and please get that turd out of your avatar. Actually on second thought keep it, that turd suits you. The Browns wait I mean Turds stink and wont do crap next year. They should really think about changing the team name to "Turds" since it suits them and their fans a lot better.

I'm actually surprised to see so many Cowboy fans worried about Sunday's game. In my opinion they have the easiest match-up there is. I mean the Giants beat a Buc's team that did not show up to play. In fact I picked Tampa to win that game, and feel that they could have easily won that game
