1. It's a home game. Clearly the Cowboys don't have a huge home-field advantage, but it sure beats playing at a team that does.
2. This team has already beaten the Eagles this year albeit with Romo as QB. Although Romo didn't exactly light up the scoreboard: 1 TD pass
3. If the Vikings can whoop this team with Matt Cassell and Matt Asiata, then I have no doubts that Orton and Murray can do the same.
4. Harris is playing which gives the return game a huge boost and can shift the momentum in a big way.
5. Fade routes the Bryant have seldom been stopped this year.
6. The team will, or at lest should rely on the running game and quick throws.
7. The offensive line has been playing stellar lately and should give Orton plenty of time,
8. Orton will be playing with a lot to prove
9. Garrett will be coaching with a lot to prove and a lot to lose
10. There is a fullback on the roster
11. Orton is not playing with a monkey on his back nor fearing the looming headlines that may follow the game
12. Witten is still on the team
13. Cole Beasley will complement the quick routes nicely
14. Morris Claiborne adds some depth to the secondary and will bring his A game
15. Miles Austin is overdue for some contributions
16. The team is playing for a playoff position; should be extra motivated
17. Players SHOULD rally around Orton and step up to the challenge
18. If they lose, I'll fall into a deep, dark depression along with everyone else here
