Great rivalry and really the only one I’ve ever cared about since they always play each other tough no matter their records. Wish Dallas was healthier but that’s football! Can’t help but admire RGIII who oozes class unlike so many of his fans. Let’s go Big D!

We didn’t run on zone option play against Philly. It will be back against Dallas.

Skins are 17th. Dallas has Demarco back. Even with half the starters hurt, Dallas’s defense is ranked only one spot lower than Washington. Dallas has had a brutal December schedule and played well finally. Skins and their media darling get exposed.

Alas, they either can’t or won’t. For that reason I give the edge to the ‘Skins. Plus, the ‘Skins are at home and that means a lot. The difference will be a consistent pass rush ~ if Romo is pressured, he makes a lot of mistakes. If RGIII is pressured, he cuts your thoat with his running ability. Plus, Romo has no reliable backup ~ Griffin does.

Please someone send him a fat country singer again.

But the truth is RGIII is still going to be a force to reckon with. The kid is young and the world is his oyster. As hurt as he may be he will leave it all on the field.

@mr wrong 212… What haven’t packers fans learned from last year? That the Vikings can screw themselves out of a real franchise quarterback (RGIII)? What did the Vikings prove with their 3-13 record last year that we were supposed to learn from again?

Counting chickens before they hatch. Just like you did before the divisional playoff last year.

I have no confidence in them winning this game even with Romo and Bryant playing extremely well. This is exactly the type of game Romo breaks your heart in. Heres the difference between Eli Manning and Tony Romo. Compare the numbers this year and Romo has easily had the better season statistically, like he does every year. Would anyone take Romo over Eli in a game like this even with Manning playing like crap this year? Exactly.

RG3 is a matchup nightmare but im not too worried about him. This will be the usual Cowboys loss due to turnovers

But clutch is not a word to ever describe Romo or his receivers. Dex played with a broken finger and had over 200 yards, the rest have no excuses.
