1. Well, if you can't pick a winner on the field..
Pick one in the luxury box.

2. Yes, but one has to look at the numbers...
The Cowboys have the potential to be great this year. Think about it. They barely lost, in spite of the multiple mistakes of ONE player. It would be rude to name names, but suffice it to say it was the Quarterback. THREE (that's right, three) interceptions. 75% of the team's turnovers. The turnovers cost the 'boys 24 points. That's right, 24! On top of that, only 13 for 29 on completions.

In spite of the saboteur, they almost overcame.

Once the team's management figures out the one, single, solitary cause of the Cowboys' woes, the sky is the limit!

3. The only numbers that count 33-31
The chokeboys come through again.

4. I look at the number that says when the Giants get over their red zone problems
that game will not even be close. Plus the other number to look at was the IR list. The Giants were missing many critical players (including All Pro Justin Tuck, thanks to a bush league move by the Cowboy's Adams).

6. But that's been their problem all along
and will continue to be their problem until they bench Romo.

9. That's exactly it!
What the Cowboys need is a quarterback!

12. I'd even be happy if they get a young talented quarterback or develop what they already have
Romo just never has had his head screwed on straight from the day he got the job. He needs to go play for a shitty team and learn what it's like to drive a Buick instead of a Ferrari and find out what it's like when movie stars no longer give him the time of day.

Eli Manning showed him how a great quarterback should be acting. He may not be the best, but he's got more talent and a better attitude than Romo ever thought about.

14. Agreed.
For the time being, I really think Kitna could at least get the job done adequately for them.

I knew the Giants game would be a long shot for the 'Boys. I watched them last week, and they are formidable. I think they have a better team than they did their Super Bowl season. Manning has only gotten better, and he's got some great targets to work with.

Even against the Giants, the Cowboys were very competitive in spite of their severe quarterback problem. If only the management/staff would recognize that.

8. WOOHOO!
:woohoo:

I can't say I'm completely happy with the Giants' performance last night, but any win over the Cowboys is a good win. To win the first game played in the Cowboys' new stadium is especially sweet.

What a way to open up Jonestown--by Big Blue handing the Cowchips their asses on a silver platter!
