Anybody but Seattle. That team is dangerous.
1. Brandon Magee will beat out Ernie Sims for the backup WILL/MO roster spot.

2. Ron Leary will start at right guard over Bernadeau.

3. Joseph Randle, Terrance Williams and Gavin Escobar will have more combined TD's than DeMarco Murray, Miles Austin and Jason Witten.

4. Bruce Carter makes the Pro Bowl.

5. The starting OL will be Smith-Livings-Frederick-Leary-Free

May not be impossible, but probably unlikely. If the skins did get in as a WC, it would be the 6th seed and we would play the 5th seed.

Oh, we'd be the fourth seed as a division winner and they'd be the #6. DURRRR

Seattle does not play as well on the road. Probably prefer them over the 49ers. Both have good defenses, so it will be a hard game to win.

Not many teams play better on the road as opposed to home. Seattle is playing like the best team in football right now...home and away.

The 49ers would probably be the easier victory based on matchups, but I want to get revenge on Seattle for the victory earlier this year and the playoff loss years ago.

...if Romo and his special ed oline can score more than 40 on the defense you saw tear UP the whiners last night, you'll get your wish.

Forget revenge -- sometimes a matchup is just bad.

In 1995, I was so happy the Packers knocked the 49ers out of the playoffs. It cleared the path for the Cowboys 3rd Superbowl -- the Cowboys owned the Packers.

Conversely in 1996, my Packer family members were ecstatic that the Panthers knocked the Cowboys out of the playoffs -- no Packer fan wanted anything to do with the Cowboys. That cleared the path for a Packer superbowl victory.

There is no shame is recognizing a particular team represents a bad playoff matchup.

Agreed, nice post. I don't want any part of Seattle. They do all the things that will make it very difficult to win - run the ball, play defense, don't commit turnovers. And the way their corners play will really slow up our offense.

I don't trust the 9ers to do that.

I want the seachickens and I want to punch them in the mouth, especially their trashy coach.
"... in the scouting/front office communities, Cowboyszone is considered to be the best fan site in the NFL by a pretty wide margin, and is considered to be right up there with the best fan sites in all of sports. You'd be floored by some of the people who have accounts here, and regularly check this site. You might be careful spouting off too many crazy opinions, you could have real NFL GMs with multiple Super Bowl rings laughing at you."

it is no longer possible to play them twice in a row, that was conditioned on Seattle losing two in a row.

Both of their corners could possibly be suspended. Browner is already suspended and Sherman could be joining him soon.

I have MN @ GB and Sea @ Dal WC weekend. MN will upset GB and knock the Skins out of the playoffs. If MN loses to GB this week then Was is at GB.
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

If it means anything to anybody, the Cowboys are 2-10 on Week 17 since 2000 (half of which in the Romo era). I'm looking forward to this game, I intend to be slightly drunk in a mixed room of Skins and Cowboys fans at a house party.

31-28 Skins
