That sounds about right and I need all offensive plays design to go to Roy Williams since I just picked him up on fantasy team. I want the passs plays to be about 90% of game. I need to win this game and I need Williams to have a big game so I going to partition Garret to throw the ball and abandon the run.:laugh2:

This game could set the NFL record for interceptions in a single contest.

Yeah I just am never willing to think that the other team is actually better, so emotion plays a hand where it should never be played.

Just safer to stay away from the Cowboys, not to mention the inconsistencies.

Actually, the ones getting emotional are the media and "experts" who drop Dallas down to middle-of-the-road status in their precious power rankings.

Vegas knows better, the lines do not lie. Funny how the general public gets incredibly rational when money is involved.

Reality is, there are maybe one or two teams in the entire league that would generate a bigger line against Carolina than that. New Orleans might, but who else?

The lines lie all the time.

The line lied last Sunday night.

Wow, that's a huge line in the NFL.

Understatement.

That there is huger than Sarah Jessica Parker's nose.
Huger than Jerra's ego.
Huger than a Heugounot after a bountiful harvest.

I would say, um, 6.

What say you, good men of the forest?

Well, 8.5 now that this discussion has taken place.

that's laughable.we are not better than carolina.

What's laughable is what you just said...

We're 1-1, the Panthers are 0-2... we've scored 65 points this season, the Panthers have scored 30... we've given up 54 points, the Panthers have given up 66... they even have a worse turnover ratio than we do, and we're -4... they've turned the ball over 9 times already this year...

The Panthers have played like hammered crap so far this year, Delhomme has sucked, big time... his quarterback rating stands at a laughable 45.3 this season, and he's averaging 190 yards per game throwing the ball...

Most telling of all, their run defense stands 27th in the league so far, giving up 168 yards per game and 4.9 yards per carry, and they're going up against the league's best rushing offense... and they seem to have problems handling good pass-catching TEs-- in two games, opposing TEs have caught 13 passes for 108 yards and 2 TDs...

With the Cowboys pissed after their bitter loss to the Giants, I look for them to take their frustrations out on a struggling Carolina team... the Panthers' weaknesses play directly into the Cowboys' strengths... look for the running game and the TEs to play big roles in this one...

I hope you know I was kidding, Mike. :)

Just wanted to see what it felt like to join the herd of reactionary ADD fans. It wasn't good.

You had me goin' there for a minute, CL... my damned sarcasm meter must need new batteries...
