I would not get too worked up over this. For one, you know FOX is throwing that out there to get attention. Read the notations on the Power Ranking. Everybody and their dog has Dallas #1 but Fox. If Fox introduces their ratings and Dallas is #1, then you read it. You say" Ahhhh..... Cool!" and you go on with your life. You pour your second cup of coffee and you never think about it again. However, if you say the Gmen are #1, you make mention of the fact that the Cowboy Fan base has their collective blood boiling over the fact that they are not #1 and you just let ride, you have a great deal of attention. Plus, you get all the East Coast NYrs clicking in to check it out as well. You start feeding the animal that is media hype. Fox is building towards a mega rating game. We have Washingtion, Cincy, Az, Rams, Bucs and then NY in game 9. Giants have Hawks, Brownies, 9rs, Steelers and then us. We could easily be 9-0 come week nine. NY has a pathetically easy schedule this year. The only team they should have to really worry about in that stretch are the Steelers. Even so, 8-1 is still a pretty good match up. Not as good as two 9-0 teams but still pretty good.
Don't be lead by the nose so easily. Every body knows we are the best team in Football right now.
