Remove all of the convenient excuses beforehand and all that's left is the job to get done.

Playing these games three days in a row, it was never going to be a level playing field when it came to the amount of rest each team got. Since the Cowboys play the last Sunday game, there is no difference between this and the regular season MNF schedule when teams play on that night. They played 3 games in 12 days during the regular season so it's not anything unusual for them.

I haven't heard any players comment but seeing that this MNF game was THE playoff game of the weekend regarding ratings, I think they're just fine with it. And this game will be the top rated one of this weekend, even higher than BUF-CIN.

For fans that were around for the early 90's games between these two teams, this is going to be a special game and I am excited to see those uniforms lined up on that field again.

Oh I think in the past couple of weeks they've done more installations than they've let on

and my comment was "I would not consider it much of a short week" You made the claim of it unexpected, I know what scheduling is do you? You want to make it an issue go for it I expect this team to be up and ready to play.

Yes. Your comment is wrong. It is a short week. The same as any other for a team playing on Monday night.

You said it's not really a short week because they knew about it. Go back and check. You did.
