Dallas-New England

I think the Patriots will win in a somewhat lopsided victory. Not a total blowout, but I suspect they'll be in control for most of the game. Just a feeling. They are just so good.

Go Packers! (had to get that in, this being a football thread and all)

Go New England.

I only root for the Cowboys if it is in the best interest of the Packers.  At this point of the season, it's not.  So I won't.

the only reason it will be close is New England doesn't want to show all of their stuff just in case they meet for the super bowl.  

the score may be close, like  7-12 points, but the game will never be in doubt,, the dallas fan's and that includes me will be thinking "IF we can just make a play here... or here.. or IF this happens then ....."  but it won't.  New England will say the same stuff,, "yea they played hard and we are glad to have gotten this win on the road.."  but we should  come out of it thinking that new england is just really that good instead of thinking about all of the "IF we just did,.,,,,,"  stuff... but that's what new england does [until this run this year] they never blow people out and it always seems close score wise, but the game is never really in doubt for them, they allow the other team to make mistakes and lose

New England has more recievers in their four and five reciever set then Dallas has people to cover them, which will have a huge impact on them playing man-man to allow the different blitz packages so Brady will get all the time he needs and even if the 'Boys secondary was healthy their big weakness is giving up the pass anyway.

Don't even get me started on what seems to happen to quarterbacks the first time they go up again Bill Billichick or randy Moss still feeling slighted this the cowboys didn't draft him over his weed incident so he really kills us..... auugh.....

And yet I'll be glued to the set, hoping for a win for the cowboys...  just not putting any money on this game

well talent wise the patroits have had a tougher schedule... who would have thought that the chargers and bengals would be this bad record wise. people pretty much knew that the bills' dolphins and ram's just wouldn't have a great year..

But there is still hope for the cowboys

Yes, there's always the hope that none of their players will leave the field on a stretcher and that they'll retain some dignity by losing by less than 14 points.

Other than that, they don't have much hope.

It's going to be a Red Sox/Patriots championship year. I can feel it.

ouch... "they" are right... the truth does indeed hurt.  

I love living in MA...about 5 miles from Gillette...we have Pats football players in the nice neighborhood I do my 4 mile runs into.

Sox and Pats...awesome! 

 This is from Bill Simmons of ESPN....

Tony Romo has started 16 games in the NFL. He looked great in five of them, good in three of them, mediocre in four of them, lousy in three of them and abysmal in two of them. Should I trust Romo in a gigantic game ... or should I trust Tom Brady, who has a 127.2 QB rating and three Super Bowl rings? You tell me.

So in a couple of weeks your pats could still be undefeated playing the still undefeated colts [booo!!] and around that time the Red sox could be winning a world series, and you have the start of the NBA now the celtics have kevin garrnet and with a weak eastern conference a great chance to go to the finals.. life is looking good for you Boston area sports fans

I just want some scoring. Lots and lots of scoring.

Fantasy team has Brady, Welker, and TO.

The Celtics are coming back...dare we dream?

There were few sights as a kid more amazing than looking up into the rafters of the Boston Garden and seeing all those white and green Championship banners hanging down.

x2

although I have Brady, Moss combo  

They would be a combined 12-12 had those 5 teams not played the Pats.

"Cause we've got Celtics pride, we're feeling it real down deep inside, Celtics pride, we're gonna get it back one more time..."

Tell me someone else remembers that song.

That going to really suck when the Rockies win the WS then huh...  

The Celtics are coming back...dare we dream?

OMG - I just got chills remembering that ... and I think I have tickets here in Miami ... .

Bradword?  pfffft ... .  Normally, I like you.  Today?  Not so much! 

And if anyone needs me a week from tomorrow?  If the phone don't ring, that's me calling. 

But, that will be one awesome game.  Or games. 

Shoot, now if the Sox would only come back for Interleague against the Marlins ... .
