Was thinking about the Colts-Pats game and realized a very important aspect of the game for the Cowboys point of view.

Dallas may need the Pats to be playing for something in the last game of the season when they play the Giants. If the Pats already have home field wrapped up and start backups then the Giants would have a chance to win that game if they are competeing with us for the division.

So we need to Colts to win and be ahead of the Pats for home field. This would ensure that the Pats actually are plaing for something when they face the Giants

I think it's the opposite.

It's obvious now that the Pats are out to prove something this year, and they are going to want to go undefeated.

The best chance that they'll go "all out" against the Giants is for them to be 15-0 at the time of the game.

That's a good point but I think home field advantage would be more important to them than going undefeated. Remember, they're not interested in all the records as Belicheat and Brady keep saying. They just want to win the Superbowl and going to Indy for the AFC title would be very tough which would mean that they had already lost to the Colts in the regular season.

The Pats certainly look very good but their schedule up 'til now has been very weak. The only good team they have played has been the Cowboys and the 'Boys were in the game until midway through the 4th quarter.

The second half of their season gets much tougher. They play the Colts this weekend, the Steelers, the Ravens at Baltimore with a healthy McNair, the Eagles, and the Giants.

There is no way they go undefeated. I can easily see 1-2 losses before the end of the season.

I know it sounds crazy but I think that even the Bills could give them a game at Buffalo. Since the Cowboys escaped with a victory, this game would be the Bills Superbowl. And if Losman is starting, you know he'll want payback for the cheap shot Wilfork took at him. The Buffalo fans can certainly give the Bills a huge boost just like they did against the Cowboys.
