Its interesting. People were saying Bucs on 5 game winning streak and will be tough to beat for Cowboys.

Cowboys beat Bucs. Now. Bucs lost to NO.

People always saying other teams get healthy playing Cowboys. Not any more.

well they did get close to beating us. sure, one long touchdown was complete luck, but it was close with that.

If we released Romo right now, he could probably sign with the Raiders as a free agent. Of course, the Cowboys would be totally screwed.

But hey.

Wouldn't teams with worse records get dibs on him first?

I think they would need both Green Bay and Washington to lose and win next week. Then I'm not sure who wins the tiebreaker them vs Green Bay, so yes a thread.

See if you can figure this out

The tiebreaker with Tampa Bay is where it would get complicated. The teams did not play one another, so there’s no head-to-head. If both finish 9-7, they would have identical conference records at 8-4. The next tiebreaker would be common games (minimum of four), and both have gone 3-2 against Atlanta, Chicago, Seattle and Dallas.

That gets it to strength of victory for a tiebreaker (which, incidentally, is how the Packers got into the playoffs in 2010, for those keeping track). Strength of victory is the collective winning percentage of a team’s defeated opponents.

In other words, the more losses accumulated by teams the Bucs have beaten, and the more victories piled up by teams the Packers have beaten, will improve Green Bay’s chances in this tiebreaker.

Meanwhile San Fran just went for 2 to try and win the game with 31 seconds left and got it

Post did not say that. Just said Bucs were on 5 game winning streak and would be tough to beat for Cowboys.

But Cowboys beat them. Please go back and read.

you said it's interesting that people said the bucs would be tough to beat. why? that is not interesting at all. they were all correct.
 
The 49ers win has Cleveland back on top with the first overall pick with no QB worthy of the pick but they may have to pick one anyway.

You were the one who said you weren't comfortable with a 19 point lead, which is a huge lead by any team in the 4th quarter. That''d be amongst the great combebacks of all time to come back from that much. It's like a 98-99% sure victory, there is nothing to worry about. Pulling Carr would not make your defense play terrible suddenly. But if somehow they got close you put him back in, what's the big deal? We just see it differently.

There have been teams that have come back from 19 points in the 4th quarter
At any rate, your opinion is noted. No need to beat a dead horse. :)
