I was watching NFL Live this morning and there was Trey Wingo, Eric Allen, and Sean Salisbury the question came up by Wingo "Can the Cowboys compete with the Bears?" in the NFC Championship Game if that happens and Allen said something to the degree that the only thing bothers him about the Cowboys, is the secondary did he not see the Colts game Sunday to make such a claim and yes they gave up some big pass plays to opposing teams but which secondary hasn't and there is no way that the Bears, have better WRs than the Colts, yeah Muhammad is a good recievers but outside of him that's it and while Bradley, and Berrian can provide a few plays in their passing game their offense wouldn't scare me.

Do most of you believe the Cowboys with Romo, can compete with the Bears, in the playoffs?

Good Lord, let them make the playoffs first. I'm worried about Tampa and New York.

I do cause if u rattle Grossman there offense goes from being good to being way below average. Their running game has been non-existant for the most part, the only thing scary about the Bears is obviously their D.

i think if we make it to the playoff, we can definitely compete and beat the bears. At this stage, it is the will and heart of the players not their skills.

I agree 100% with you on that but what Eric Allen, said about the secondary against the Bears, needs to be struck in the face not to say that the Bears, if that happens not to say that they wouldn't catch the Cowboys off guard because anything can happen but I found that suprising when we did a good job against one of the best passing offense in the league days ago.

I'm worried about Tampa, New York, New Orleans, Atlanta. Those games will decide whether we deserve to be in hte playoffs.

if they play their A game and we play our A game we win.

It was premature for the NFL Live Crew to ask that question but agree with the rest .

We need to see how TR plays under heavy pressure and being rattled yet. Can he handle it or not. We have no idea.

The Cowboys can compete with any team in the NFL.

I don't think the Cowboys are clearly better than teams like the Bears, Ravens, Patriots, and yes, even the Colts, despite the outcome Sunday.

So yeah, they can compete with them, but the game could go either way.

Of course, the next few games are likely to change my mind one way or the other.

I don't think the Bears could run the ball on our defensive front 7. So it would probably be a low scoring game where the game would hinge on who came up with the big play or turnover.
