So us at +3 means it's really even cause the home team always gets 3 points!

Covering the spread doesn't mean anything to us if we lose the game just because it's a road game.

That said, MIN-3 is a bad bet this week. We're going to beat them pretty handily, I think.

That's even all the way. Good line.

Some of you guys here are scarting me with you total disrespect for the Vikings, however.

Compared tot he Eagles the are beterr in almost very single phase of the game:
better qb
better passing offense
better rushing offense
better O-line
better D-line
better secondary
better run and pass defense
better special teams...maybe

plus they have not lost a single game at home all season.

They at the very least deserve some respect.

Let us know how many thousands you put down on this one with your 100% confidence. Maybe even take out a loan for the gauranteed cash earnings?:rolleyes:
Sorry, I think we can pull it off, but winning at Minny is no layup.

Passing offense (ijust pulled favre and McNabb passing numbers, so not exact total)
Minn = 4156 yards 37 td 7 picks
Philly = 3553 yards 22 TDs 10 picks
I think the edge went clearly to the Viking this year.

You may have a point regarding the secondary...but of course, If Philly is better it is only slightly...not 10X like you said.
Minny = A Winfield, Ced Griffin, Mad Williams, Tyrell Johnson
Philly = A Samuel, Sean Jones, Q Mikel, S Brown

Special Teams had a question mark. Both have great return guys with (Harvin/Reynaud rate higher than Jackson/Hobbs combined), and both have great kickers with Akers and Longwell (though I think Longwell is slightly better...jmo)

Anyway, what's your point? I'm just taking the high road and giving some respect where it is due. They have had a good season and are tough at home. And what's with saying debatable topics are out-ight "lies"?

No need to attack, and as it turns out, you may have wrong on most of your attacks anyway.

Conventional wisdom (whatever that means!) suggests they will....and I think that will work in the Cowboys' favor. :wink3:

Rice and Harvin are better receivers and their passing offense is just as dangerous or more so than the Eagles.

The Eagles secondary has been a weak spot for them all year.

The Vikings are a better ball club than the Eagles. Favre is a more dangerous QB.

I still like our chances but they are undefeated at home. This one deserves our A game. Hopefully some of the mistakes will be tightened up.

This....

Good to see someone with enough nads around here to just give credit to another team. There's no rule that says you can't compliment the opponent your favorite team is getting ready to defeat!
