Defense is the key

[jr40usa]

Our offense for the most part has carried our defense this year. That has to change for us to reach the SB. I look for the defense to be more aggressive starting this Sunday. What do you think?

I think Tony's the key. If he plays well, game over. If not, we're in for a fight.

Good point.

I just have a feeling our defense is going to dominate this game. We're healthier on D than we've been all year. For whatever reason, I just think our D is going to play lights out.

3 big keys in my opinion...

1. Yes, the defense is biggest.
2. How well Romo plays.
3. The big bad OL.

I think Tony's the key. If he plays well, game over. If not, we're in for a fight.

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner. For everyone who doesn't think Tony boy is the key this weekend, checkout the CNNSI article from Reuben Frank.

In 28 starts, Romo has had a QB rating over 85 in 21 of them, a rating between 60 & 85 in one of them and less than 60 in 6 of them.

If he can come out hot and stay so for the entire game, the Giants won't be able to keep up with us. If he comes out and puts up a stinker, it won't matter how stingy our D is. See Philadelphia this year.
