for us. Not only do we get to play the Giants for our division, essentially. We get to play New Orleans heads up for a first round bye. and at least one home playoff game... Winning them both would be HUGE!!!!:starspin

I can't even think about the Saints game. This Sunday already seems light years away.

This is such an important thread, I don't know how it slid to page 3. AmericasTeam31 is right on the money and I'll take it furhter; if we run the table, we can possibly end up with home field advantage throughout the playoffs.

One team at a time but you are correct in asserting that they must both be Cowboy victories. Playoff status is dependent upon it.

I'm just glad the Cowboys are not getting over confident about the Giants like the Fans are.

Bill PArcells knows better than that and I'm almost certain Romo keeps his mind focused on our main goal.

yes i agree these next two games are very important for us in making a playoff run but the giants game scares me it's not that i don't have confidence in our guys but it's the way the giants are playing right now they are falling apart and lord knows i hope they continue but it just worries me our team has to go into their place and play them like this is the nfc championship game we can not let up any our defense has to keep playing the way they have and not let up and also romo has to keep finding his receivers like he has here's to running the table and heading to the superbowl

Frankly, I don't care about bye weeks right now. We need to win these next two games to demonstrate we can beat teams with winning records. I am still concerned this team does not react well to being hit in the mouth.

Not just for the players, but the fans. If you're going on Sunday, only be worried about that 60 minutes and get as loud as you can in a hostile area.

If the Bears lose 2 of these, and the Cowboys finish 12-4, the Bears still win the conference. If they lose 3....

The mental toughness required to win those down and dirty, smashmouth, fist in the face, in the trenches types of game is still somewhat suspect.

We have not gone on the road and defeated a divisional rival in quite some time. The last such W was against Philly.... Roy INT at the end of the game last season.

Threads like this lose their luster when there is one created every week. Every game is big from here on out.

There is no question that every game is huge, but speaking from a major playoff implincation stand point. These are two that we must have .....

You know the Giants believe, deep down, they have our number. Shockey said as much. We should beat them...but we should have beaten the Commanders as well.

I say we win both games, Giants are totally off track and the saints Defense is suspect. We should win both games, but we know how this team and success is.

As bad as the Giants are playing its not too unrealistic that we could lose this game and still win the division or at least make the playoffs. Obviously we would all rather see them put a butt whippin on them, but there is a lot of football left. On the other hand for the Giants they pretty much have to win this game or they are going to be in a world of hurt just trying to make the playoffs.

We should win both games.......Everything is there for the taking and WE have the team that can do it..It's time to kick down that door and do it.


Welcome to the board....enjoy your stay.:)

Why do you say that? They are 7-4 and have a good offense. They are playing well. We should beat them but the Giants game is more important.
