Speculation: Cowboys at Colts WEEK 1 2010....

[dallascowboyfanboy]

Great.. so if that were to happen then we start the season out 0-1.

Next season too far away to predict. We could beat Colts if Bob Sanders and their starting CBs are not playing via a trade or what not. Too much can happen in the off season.

That's not how they look at this. In this spot they really want the best match up possible.

I'm guessing Dallas or SD.

no, that is the way they look at it.

If we start on the road, it will be against Houston...book it!

Probably a Sunday night or Monday night game.

You're welcome to be a homer but I'll be a realist.

We're not going to beat them opening night, at their home, week 1.

It would be nice if we did, but I don't see it happening.

Why not? Didn't the Bears beat them when they opened their stadium on SNF a couple years ago?
