It is SO HARD to beat a team 3 straight...

[IceBoxMN]

Why have I read this over a dozen times in the last week? Why is it "so hard"???

FACT: Since 1970, there have been 18 instances where a team had a chance to beat a team 3 straight in the same season. Those teams are 11-7.

With that being said, the Cowboys haven't won a playoff game since Tony Romo was 16 years old and the Spice Girls released their first number 1 hit. Andy Reid is 7-0 in the first playoff game of the season, and 18-5 against NFC East. And your gonna GIVE ME POINTS?

Easy pick! Maybe not an easy win, as nothing is a lock, but certainly an easy pick!

Good luck to all of you this weekend! Let's make some money

such an easy pick yet u cant even give any reason based on actual game play !

[dhunter]

chargers have beat the raiders 11 games in a row. so i agree it's not that hard.

[IceBoxMN]

Did somebody ask me to give reasons "based on actual game play"? Do I need to cap the game right here in the forum? Are we all here to help eachother? For what it's worth, I posted FACTS above that lean towards both teams. If I posted the weather forecast for the game, would you question why I didn't post the injury report?

I am offering FACTS. Take my "trending" FACTS, combine them with "situational" FACTS, and "game play" FACTS from other cappers, and draw up your own conclusions.

Tony Romo and the Cowboys are choke artists. This is not opinion, this is FACT. There are numbers to prove it. One year, they WILL turn that around. Will it be this year? I don't know that yet, and neither do you.

For all those I have offended by posting cold hard FACTS, I am truly sorry. I understand how hard it may be to swallow if you are a Cowboys fan like cuse_man, but my intent was only to help.

Although I agree with you that the boys have been pretty stagnant in the playoffs in this century, I think they are clicking on all cylinders and I'd be hesitant to bet against them in this position. Romo has been $ in December and Reed and the Eagles can't stay perfect in the first round of the playoffs forever. The boys are -4 when they were -3 last week and totally blew out the Eagles. It's my opinion that vegas is playing in to all of your above trends and the boys take care of business this week and roll em again. jmo but goodluck if you take Philly!

Eagles are done.

Just don't see them miraculously turning it on after last week's dismal performance.

[Slammer]

Cowboys are playing well, if they were still choke artists, it would have already happened vs NO or Wash or Philly and they wouldn't be in the spot that they are now.

Dallas is owning in the trenches

eagles are donezo

I don't think 4 is enough for the Iggles.

Me either.. think dallas covers, but not sure if I will lay the 4. I was gonna pass on this game just because of the situation and the futures I got, but right now im debating it. 4 is tough because even if dallas is up 10 i can see philly backdoor TD easily.

[dhunter]

90%

[cuse_man]

Yea too bad I didn't track it separately on here.. im sure if we got some good $ down we could take the time to go back though.

[dhunter]

not saying you didn't cuse. I don't track your plays so I have no idea. but 90% over 3 years is pretty unbelievable. If that was the case why bother with betting on anything else. stick with what you are confident in and make bank
