Dallas-Skins

I really am mpressed with the Skins QB, I think they found them a keeper.
Snyder would be nuts to make a coaching change at the end of the season, but no one ever said he had any football sense.
Who would have thought that with Wade Phillips as coach that our D would be so god awful bad? Our offense can keep up with any team in the AFC that we might face if we are lucky enough to make it to the SB, but our D is our achilles heel. Roy Williams is an absolute liabilty and I cannot figure out why he is still on the field.

With all due respect, Robert...but only a Dallas fan would be bitching with a 9-1 record in week 11 of the season.

There's only one team with a better record in all of pro football.

Dude...ride the wave.

That isn't true Jason. Only last week he was thanking Eli Manning for the Dallas win.

Dallas is the NFL team I follow. Used to live in Arlington and mom sang for the Dallas chapter of the Sweet Adelines. They had a concession stand at Texas Stadium and I was able to go to many of the home games. This was back when Landry was coaching and Dorsett/Staubach were still there.

Those were the days the Skins/Boys game was a true rivalry.

Great memories.

You make my point. Our D could not stop a thing.
And Jason, I am enjoying the ride and going to the GB game a week from Thursday and can't wait. It should determine home field advantage. If we can get by GB in the playoffs I fully expect us to be in the SB. I just hope that our D improves considerably to give us a chance.

Those games were out and out warfare between them. A slugfest for sure.

No - I was showing you a contradiction to your point. You said "our offense can keep up with any team in the AFC" but they couldn't keep up with the Patriots - in fact they didn't even come close to keeping up with them.

It will be interesting to see how the GB game shakes out.
