Even after this week it will still be to hard to tell what will happen.
The NFC south plays the weak ass AFC west this season. Thats 4 free wins per team.

I am not saying that the NFC South is better; other than Carolina - I don't think they are, but in the end all that matters is the W/L and I think the South will have Carolina and one other going better then 10-6.

Time to put the Steelers game in the rear view and move on to more important things. It's Dallas week! What's your prediction for the game?
I want to believe that Zorn is smart and will make sure we throw a lot of deep balls against a very poor secondary. If not, then we are in trouble with Portis being hurt. I fear saying too much that isn't considered "glass full" around here.

Im sitting here listening to Dexter Manley talk about playing the Cowgirls back in the day. He's telling a story about when Tony Peters told Randy White during a game that he had slept with his wife. Dexter was a rookie and on the sideline when White came over to the sideline and started fighting with Peters.....ahhh.........those were the days.

Redskins are currently at a 78% win probability in this one. Pending the Portis story, of course.

That looks good. I have 2 questions:
1 - does this take into account the Cowboys injuries returning
2 - are they pretty solid every week.
I know that the "accu-score" model on espn's site gives the Cowboys an edge.

This game scares me. Coming off a blowout loss to the Steelers at home (yes a blowout, considering the only points the Skins scored came off 2 early mistakes within the first 5 minutes of the game), with a sputtering offense...and quite possibly no Portis, it just doesn't look good.
Don't get me wrong, the Cowboys are struggling too, 2-4 in the last 6. But they get Romo and Newman back, which could be the spark they need.
The Redskins will have to dig deep and really put pressure on the Cowboys to perform. If the Skins can get up early and force the Cowboys to abandon the run, we could see a repeat of the 1st game. When Romo is pressured, he makes mistakes. However, if Alexander/Betts/Cartwright cannot run the ball, it's going to be a long day for Campbell and the Skins offense.
And because this is a rivalry game, you can throw out all the records, injuries, trivial things because these games get ugly.
No prediction here...just hope that those Skins that can, step up, and they are able to contain the Cowboys.

It depends on which Newsman we get back. Newman was back from injuries for the first time the Boys played the Redskins, and Moss made him look average. If he's really healthy, that will be huge.
Honestly, I'm a little disappointed that Portis might not play. If the Cowboys somehow win this thing (which I just don't see happening, even after putting on those lovely rose colored glasses), the talk will be not of the win, but of the fact that the Redskins were down their best player.
It's always better to see two great teams play at full strength.
