Cowboys!

Wow is this team looking good to win the division in just the next 2 weeks. They could be a game up after tonight, next week they play AZ while the NYG play GB and the following week Dallas gets the NYG at home. They can actually bury their division in these next 3 weeks and be up by 3 games with 3 to play. They will be favored in all 3 games while the NYG are or will be a TD underdog in all 3 games.

I think Giants could get beat by 20+ tonight and @ GB and still wouldn't be +7 at Dallas. I think you are getting ahead of yourself... lotta football to be played here.

Cuse, NYG are 7+ dogs tonight, they are 6.5 dogs at home to GB. Obviously a win by NYG in those 2 games or Dallas falling flat against AZ can change things, but it would be the 8-4 Cowboys at home to the 6-6 Giants. That line would be around -6 to -7. The line would be probably 6, but i said close to a TD underdog of Im not mistaken.

dallas cowboys beat some under 500 teams and boom! superbowl champions right?
Neither them nor the giants will go far in the playoffs if/when either or both gets in.

Cowboys are a smoke and mirror team. They don't play consistent enough to be thought of as contenders. I hope the line is 7+ cause the books would get pounded by the bets on the giants.

Truth is these 2 are evenly matched. Records are hard to compare the cowboys don't have to play the saints or the packers and if they did they'd have the same chances/odds as the giants. Disagree? If being objective I think not. Cowboys get Detroit (loss) and the bucs instead. Giants/cowboys probably split their series this year.

Cowboys are 2-3 outside dallas. Both in OT 27-24 week 2 an impressive win against the 9'ers and then an ugly win against the skins week 11. Don't believe they can win 1 or more road playoff games.

Sadly, they should win the division but it's nothing for anyone to be wetting their panties over.

The problem is you act like there are so many other great teams out there. There is one superior team this year and that still does mean they win the SB. You can nick pick the schedule and wins/losses of any team you place in the top 10. None of them are dominant. To be honest 2-10 are all very close and anyone of them can beat the other. On a neutral field all are within a FG of one another besides maybe Oakland and Houston now with their QB situation.

cant argue with that one! it is what it is

if they only had a defense, average 39 pts a game and go 6-6, 5 of 6 losses had 9pt or more lead at halftime (other game was down 4 to OU at half and gave up 28 straight in 3rd)... 1.8M to buy Sherman out now, if they wait till after 2012 season its 1.4M (he will fire his defensive staff and that will buy him one more year, dont know why he wants that, going to the SEC and losing all the good players on offense, lol)

Honestly, they are the worst 2nd half team I can ever remember.

ya think, take away the first 2 games and the Kansas game and 3rd qtr they got outscored 110-41, and 17 of those 41 came in the Baylor game. bad thing is problem was never fixed, got outscored in the Texas game 17-0 in 3rd to a team that couldnt score an offensive TD against down the street Concordia Lutheran!

They could all win by a FG but you start a thread about them being TD+ favs.

I'm not saying they can't win ever I'm speaking of the same thing everyone in each of these threads every week speaks of and that is of the odds based on current knowledge of this and other teams.

That was more of a reaction to both romanowskis comment and the other thread with Dallas as #4 overall. I just don't believe they are there this season.

Also I dont think Oakland has a QB situation in fact I think they are improved there with Palmer being greater than Cambell. They are a pretty good team who will get better when McFadden comes back. He's yet to play with Palmer and should be crazy with Bush pkaying well too.
