This is really weird. No one clinches with just a win. They all need something to happen besides winning.

Yup, you are right. I was ignoring the jest, who would eliminate the Fins since they'd have a better Division record. But they could get in with a tie!

But seriously, if the Fins can't beat the jest then they don't deserve to be in the Playoffs.

Go Chargers & Bengals!

The Dallas-Philadelphia line opened with Dallas favored by 1. Philly is now favored by 7.5.

How in the world were we favoured? They have the much better defense, starting with their relentless pass rush and their offense is far more explosive than ours, especially with leadfoot Orton at the reins.

Lol were going to finish with the same record. It's going to be so good to squish the fish

The Cowboys were favored by some online sportsbooks before last night's Eagles game. The Las Vegas sportsbooks, which didn't put a line out until after the Eagles game, opened with the Eagles favored by 2.5.

Yeah he may be the most polarizing QB in the league and make about 2-3 bone-headed throws a game but somehow I doubt Orton will be quite as capable at keeping up with Shady McCoy and Nick Foles. Not having a complete linebacker corp, defensive line or secondary means our defense might give up 50+ points themselves.

Does it really matter ?

The cowboys werent winning the super bowl anyways with that defense.

We lose we get higher draft pix.

Yeah but I absolutely hate the Iggles and the thought of them waltzing to a division title at the Cowboys' expense as we miss the play-offs for the 4th season in a row ticks me off. Not to mention a Romo injury might be just the excuse Jerry decides to use to keep Jason awhile longer.

When it comes to Week 17 and the Dallas Cowboys, I'm always prepared for the worst.

I think people not being sure how Foles handles pressure had something to do with it.

He sure looked awful against the Cowboys the first time.

He could totally choke under pressure and this is his first crack at a pressure game.

That report is all over the place. It says he will miss it for sure but then says Garrett hasn't ruled him out of the game. I suspect Romo will at least start the game next week.

He has a herniated disc and needs surgery. He won't be playing regardless of what Garrett says.
