Did you happen to see the point spread? The Skins win was a shocking upset.
It was shocking in regard to the spread I guess, but the spread is just something in place to keep the betting money even on both sides.
Were you really shocked about the outcome?

On TV, ESPN has talked both about the things the Cowboys did wrong-not giving the ball to Barber, forcing it to TO; and what the Redskins did right-aggressive playcalling, smart decisions by Campbell, Thrash selling the play on his TD, aggressive running by Portis.

Anyone else hear the story of how our locker room was over 90 degrees (the AC wasn't working, despite it being nice and cool in Dallas' locker room)? Or how one of our sideline cool blowers was "malfunctioning?" Bull shit. Nice try Dallas.
Throw on Doc Walker. The national media has a pathetic love affair with their Dallas Darlings. I'm tired of it. Jaws gives us props though.
Yes I heard the same thing. I wonder if Tank will be upset about that?

I haven't watched anything today, but after the highlights last night on SC all the talk seemed to be focused on the Cowboys.

what do you expect from a man(jerry jones)who bought off one of his players after michael irvin stabbed him in the locker room?jerry jones is an arrogant piece of shit on his best days,and he's lower than snake piss his other days.i think the league should investigate this shit.

The Cowboys are media darlings because of all the attention they bring to themselves. Add that to the fact that they were pretty much crowned the best team in football after three weeks, and easily deemed Super Bowl favorites. Prior to beating them you would have thought the NFC East only had three teams, because that's what everyone was talking about. We will continue to get no respect from the media until we win a Super Bowl, sign Chris Henry, or Clinton Portis and Santana Moss go to jail.

Epic win! Hope JZ can keep it up. We need to beat Philly. Any word on this Westbrook injury?

Honestly....people are afraid to call us a #1. Look at boxing. There are several people in the same weight class and all ranked. If a 15th placed boxer fights a #1 Champion holding the title belt and wins guess what.....#15 is now #1. I believe some one on here wrote that Howie Long said that or something similar after the game. Everyone had Dallas as the #1 in our division, #1 team in the NFC...the team to beat. Dallas was the team expected to go to the SB. Hell go back and look at the magazines prior to season start. Skins were to be last in the division and not make the play offs. LOL. It was supposed to be Dallas, Giants and Eagles.

Right. Did you also notice that all of the highlights were the Cowboys' touchdowns with maybe one Redskins' one thrown in?

The only person that i heard give us props was none other then Troy Aikmen. He is by far the most neutral commentator out there.
But he does have a hard-on for Clinton Ports
