I'm pulling for Detroit, New York, and Seattle (with an Atlanta loss).

I'd like to avoid having an NFCE playoff match up if at all possible. It would also be great to play Detroit in the Divisional Round, because I see no way they beat us without a turd of a performance from Dallas. My ideal playoff run includes: Detroit, Seattle, and anybody but New England.

What does the Board want to see this weekend? (Outside the Cowboys game)

I'm really hoping for the seeding to stay as is, 1.) Dallas, 2.) Atlanta, 3.) Seattle, 4.) Green Bay, 5.) NY Giants, 6.) Washington

It would be great if Washington missed the playoffs, but I don't see the Giants playing 4 quarters. If seeding falls this way, I can see Washington and NY losing in the wild card round, and we get a home game against GB.

I want to see the Cowboys beat anyone that the NFL has to offer, regardless of whom it involves. If there's another team out there that scares you, then your championship aspirations are likely not well founded. A Super Bowl winning contender should be capable of emerging victorious over any other team, regardless of which one happens to challenge it.

A Cowboy win. Funny. I've only focused on Cowboy victories for 40 consecutive seasons. Is that a record?

nah.

Also any win over any team is a great achievement this year. Who would have thought we would go from 4-12 to this...

I want to see us take down the Patriots for the Lombardi regardless how we get there. And in fact I would love to face the Giants again to return the favor for 2007 as well as for all the head they're talking at the moment. That's my hope.

Replace GB with Detroit, and I will be fine with this.

I can readily respect that perspective, although I truly believe that 4-12 record was largely the result of a worst-case scenario that occurred to hogtie us. Losing your ace QB early, only to replace him with a vastly inferior one, will get practically any team slaughtered over a full season.

I'm hoping Romo gets 4 TD and is 23-25 for 250 yards in two quarters. Than a team offers up multiple 1st and a 2nd for him. I will preface this by saying Romo lighting it up doesn't bring out the "Romo starts playoffs" crowd.

Lions Win, Falcons Win, and Commanders win. Lions with a Skins win knocks out the Packers and Falcons win ensures they are the 2nd seed.
