Too lazy to look up stats, but I have to think it's hard to beat a team three times in one season. The game had meaning, since Philly was playing for a bye. I really hope Garrett's plan today of running the ball down their throat wasn't a week 17 aberration. That's how this Dallas team should be winning. Too many good RBs not to do that.
On the flip side, seeing Romo get hit and then get up awkwardly was scary enough, considering he shouldn't have even been in the game at that point. But seeing him come BACK in? I was livid.
Reid's decision to keep McNabb is was a stupid one as well.

Starting fresh with my New Years NFL playoff picks. I know, how can I top last years Bills winning their first Super Bowl blockbuster pick, but just wait.
Packers over Cards
Cowboys over Eagles.
Pats over Ravens
Bengals over Jets.

This is the tough one....I'll say Bengals over Jets It's weird. This is actually the game I'm most confident about - the other way round. They're basically the same team, except the Jets are better than the Bengals at everything they do. It's gonna be freaking cold. My money's on the team with the better running offense/defense. I understand the whole rookie QB on the road thing, but if that's the only reasoning then I'll happily go against conventional wisdom. |

I just don't think the Bengals will lay an egg like that two weeks in a row. There really wasn't anything to play for last week. I can't see it happening again.
Unlike the Eagles who had a bye on the line and still crapped the bed.

I should say that "most" confident isn't saying much. I think all of these games could go either way.
I am kind of amazed that few are giving Baltimore a chance. Again, I'll take the team with the great running game in the cold, home team or not.

Cards, Cowboys, Ravens and Bengals.
I agree with Krall about running the ball in cold weather. Also the fact Welker is out.
