RANK 5


10-4 COWBOYS


No, apparently these are not the "same ol' Cowboys." Every time this franchise has been in position to win the NFC East in recent years, it has faltered in games like this. And after Dallas blew a 21-0 lead, that looked to be the case yet again. But not this time -- not this team. While Sunday night's triumph didn't win the division, it certainly put Dallas in the driver's seat. Improving to 7-0 on the road certainly says something about the Cowboys -- and makes 25-year-old Mel Gibson proud. Tony Romo could use a 25-year-old body, though. He still looks a wee bit healthier than Gollum to me.

I can live with being number 5.

Sounds about right.... with our defense still giving up big points i think were well placed

I've never liked the Cowboys high up those rankings (I remember being 'proud' of being 1st a few times in 2007), seems to get in the players heads. They need to act like a team that has all the doubters in the world, not singing their praises
