we can agree disagreee.... that is what it SHOULD be about....you state your case.....I state mind...it's all good. I just think Donavan would play better knowing every throw has NOTHING riding on it. And converesly I am not sure about Romo anymore. I defended him to everyone. I would take his interceptions because they always came with a couple of TDs. But when you are playing teams like the Ravens and Steelers. Teams that are not offensive juggernauts. Teams that CANNOT win unless you give them the ball. You cannot heave the ball up for grabs. I was stunned...actually I still am. I would be much more comfortable with bad reads....because hey, he is human. But those were NOT bad reads. He threw the ball up for grabs like this is high school football. So besides Philly playing much more loose...I am really curious to see how Romo bounces back.grp05;2517427 said:I don't know man. They also can't win it either. I think finding out that the game is meaningless for them right before kickoff (other than knocking us out) would be too depressing and make it hard to concentrate - so I hope.

The NFL utilizes "flexible scheduling" on Sundays in Weeks 11-17. Flexible scheduling ensures quality matchups in all NFL Sunday time slots in those weeks and gives teams a chance to play their way onto primetime and into the late-afternoon 4:15 PM ET time slot on CBS and FOX.
For each of the flexible scheduling weeks with the exception of Week 17, the NFL will announce the start times of games on Sundays no later than 12 days prior to that weekend. To ensure a Sunday night game and doubleheader games with playoff implications in Week 17, the flexible scheduling decision for that Sunday may be made on six days notice.
Go Cowboys!
Who does deserve to be there? Philly? Tampa? No more than we do, in my opinion.Daudr;2517363 said:I have mixed feelings about that. As a fan, I want them to win and go to the playoffs and win all the way through to Lombardy Trophy #6, but after what I saw last week, I don't think they deserve to be there.

Now that we control our own destiny and one win gets us in, this week is all about whether or not our coaches can come up with an approach to the week that is all about urgency and whether or not they can put together a game plan that leaves nothing in the stable to get the win. Who here has any confidence this current coaching staff can do that?

Overnight low in the low-mid 30s, so even if it were a later game it shouldn't be too frigid.
That being said, please be the early game.
