The title speaks for itself on what I am about to address... anyways, it seems like Sunday cannot get here fast enough...

There are two plays I am thinking of that coulda changed T.O.'s position in stats for the season:

1) in the Carolina game, he caught a pass after the CB guarding him had fallen, but due to the ball not getting there fast enough, he was forced to try and stay in bounds to the best of his ability, but just barely couldnt pull out another Dantzler sideline move for us... you could see the expression on his face because he knew that woulda been about a 80 yard TD (I cannot find a good replay to fully tell how where the play began although it is near the 20).

2) I don't want to rehash the infamous drop we've all seen... coulda been 74 yards...

The point is that would be 154 more yards added onto his total of 654 (very sketch, I know because of the fact that we don't know how that would have changed the course of the game and the other receptions he actually had)... still though, those catches would've put him in the top 3 in receiving yards and of course would be leading the league in TD's with 9.

Oh and btw, Romo's QB rating woulda probably been higher than Peyton's if these were the circumstances... and of course we would probaby been 6-3.

Football is such a crazy game that truly can be affected by a few inches on a few plays... I guess that what keeps us drawn to it perhaps...

I thinks thats a reason we will lose Sunday.

We do to many dumb things that cost you not to win games.

The Colts are a pretty smart team and if you make mistakes against them youll pay the price because Manning will cash in.

I hope we find a way to win but in every big game we committ to many penalties, and dont execute the plays that are givin to them.

Exactly.

If you give someone like the Colts 70+ extra yards they will beat you.

I think the Cowboys are going to start to really gel from here on out. The question mark is can they recover from the loss of Ellis. While Ellis wasn't an extremely dominating player, he was a very good multi-talented player. We don't have anyone on this team (that I know of) that can replace all that he brings. That means that teams will have more points of attack against our defense.

Amen, all the stats nerds need to chill. At the end of the day only one column matters. That is the W column...
