6-4 the next 10 gets us to 11-5.

To cite yesterdays opponent's slogan, which doesn't fit their billing anymore, "just win, baby."

Why does a one dimensional Cowboys team beat us when their one dimension is what we are great against?

Is the remaining stretch really that much more brutal that our first 6 games that included the Chargers, Niners, Broncos, and an early East Coast game at NYG?

Yes, the Redskins and Oakland were lesser competition, but the bulk of our first six games all had us wondering if the Cards could pull out a win.

More of the same, IMO.

They are not one dimensional. Yes, the run is key for them... However, Romo is playing very well - particularly when given time (you may have missed this but we don't pressure the QB much), and he has legit weapons to throw to.
They are far from one dimensional...

You're out of your mind & obviously haven't watched more than 2 secs of any of their games. I hate em but they are on fire now...pick your poison. Load the box & they've been killin teams with play action passes, which Romo is 1 of the best at.

Dez, Williams & Witten are gonna be a tough match up for the Cards IMO, especially given our lack of speed at LB & almost zero pass rush. Romos ability to scramble around in the pocket waiting for guys to get open has killed teams all year. I hope we win, but Bowles & his D are gonna have to play their best game of the year to win here.

Especially when you factor in the bucky/Wisconsin factor. What has happened the last 2 games we attend together? Minnesota crushed us with 28 first quarter points, and new Orleans crushed us in the second half for 2 blow outs. Oh well this time we are bringing a secret weapon, and latest addition to the family, my daughter-in-law. She is now a Cards fan converted from a Viking fan.

One game at a time, every game is winnable now that we have our QBs back. :) But the schedule is getting tougher.

Stay classy with the insult there.

Now back to actually talking football. Have we seen what Romo not have a running game this year? Have we seen him succeed at any point in his career without a running game?

Yes we are, here is where I would like to meet up on Saturday night. I also should be able to put together a tailgate of some sorts. We have a parking pass I just don't know where it is as of yet.

Man, if I would have thought it out better, I could have made the game. It just hit me. I have to have my thyroid removed and have about 7-10 days off work. I should have scheduled it a few days before the Dallas game and flew down there.

Instead it's scheduled for Nov.11. Damn, that's the game I wanted to go to most and I didn't even think of it. Getting madder by the minute, because, like I said, I just now thought of it :mad: :bang:. Nothing I can do about it now. :computer:

Yea no kidding what were you thinking. We have a pretty good track record at games together too. Playoff game in Carolina and the NFC championship. Hell we have a real good track record when we both attend, I think the only game we lost was in the Natti? And if Early didn't trip over the goal line we might have won that too.

They were just talking about the Cardinals on First Take. Specifically showing our remaining schedule and asking who would win the division. Both said they loved BA but both picked seattle.

But thats ok. If bayless doesn't like us that is almost a guaranteed win right?

Ha. For sure. Hopefully the Seahawks get the curse of the "Percy Harvin" trade and end up with a losing record! :thumbup:

OK! Big win against the Eagles! I have us dropping the one in Dallas, but I may be wrong since they have a short week and a banged up Romo.

We deserve to catch a break with the "other guys" being bit by the injury bug.

Go BIG RED!
