I didn't expect the Taylor highlights toward the end. When he died i was too shocked to feel anything... now I end up shedding tears every time I see him.

Thanks for the vid Buster.

Btw @ the dallas fan: thanks for the classy showing! Almost makes me feel bad our men have to go put a hurtin' on your boys this weekend. Almost

Not a problem LOL There are no guarantees and no easy games in the NFC East, I love this division. For me...depends on what Dallas team shows up. They can be one of the best teams out there or they can play sloppy. I was reading an article this morning in the Dallas News ....saying people were praising Phillips for having the Dallas team ready for the short week with the Eagles and all I could think is............isn't that his job? I think we have the talent, but we're also not always prepared and penalties are still killing us. That eagles game was a nail biter and i think this one will be too

[skinsfan69]

Dallas is just too explosive on offense right now and I think their o-line handles our d-line.

Dallas 27
Wash 17

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

Redskins 34
Cowboys 20

2 4th qtr Tds (including a Carlos Rogers 65 yarder with 1:37 seconds left) to win the game

[sandtrapjack]

Well the Vegas line has the Cowboys favored by 11.5 at home this weekend.
But Vegas does not know how much emotion goes into a Redskins-Cowboys game.

I do not think Dallas covers that 11.5 point spread.

I feel confident that the Cowboys will assuredly win this game, but not a blow out by any stretch of the means.

[MTK]

Everyone is swinging on the Cowboys' nuts right now, so I guess the spread has to be that high in order to keep the money even. I'd be surprised if they cover.

[RobH4413]

Skins 38
Cowboys 35 OT... another fourth quarter comeback win to take down the boys.

One thing is for certain. With this team... unless its a huge blowout, I'm going to be glued to the game screaming at the top of my lungs. This team plays with the most fire I've seen in a long time. They won't give up, they'll force turnovers, and they'll score points.

If we're down early... it matters not.

[BleedBurgundy]

I still say that if we win, romo will be the reason. Dude is too sloppy not to have it eventually bite him in the ass.

[dblanch66]

Pressure on Romo is definitely the key and Jason Taylor's absence really hurts there. These are the games we signed him for. However, if the rest of the D can put pressure on Homo, hit him, knock him down, sack him, he turns into a whiny, pouty, erratic little bitch and WILL make mistakes. That's how we beat them. If their running game is the emphasis and they gash us like the Cards did, this game could get ugly quick.
So:
Pressure on Homo turning him into the girl that he is: 30-21 Skins
Skins D gets gashed by Barber and Jones: 35-10 Turds.

Dallas Sucks.

[redskinjim]

I agree romo makes mistakes we need to jump on them early and make plays on defense.If we win it will put us on the map. ANYTHING can happen thats the nfl baby

[SUNRA]

I live for this Sunday and every Sunday that we get a chance to beat the hell out of this team. It is sad to read some of the predictions of my fellow Redskin fans who obviously to do not understand that no record, no match-up on paper or home field advantage really means anything when we play them. The Redskins are the only team in the NFC East, that will sweep this overated, no-secondary having, circus with all of it's clowns and buffons headed by a Pillsbury Dough-Boy who cheers on the side-lines like a moron while Jason Garrett coaches his team. Jason Campbell knows what this game means, Jim Zorn knows what this game means, and yes the spirit of Sean Taylor will be with us as we completely dismantle Dallas in Irving, Texas, prime-time with the whole world watching. Redskins 35, Dallas14

HELL YES!!! I am STOKED! Lead and I will follow you SUNRA, into that dismal pit in Irvin Texas. Where self promotion and arrogance are the rule of the day. And we will show them that King Zorn has arrived and they will be cast out from first place, for now......and for YEARS TO COME!!!! The Redskins are coming baby, and you CANNOT HIDE!!! .....Sorry. I get a little carried away during Cowgirls week. I'm with you all the way man.

[TheMalcolmConnection]

I think both offenses are going to score their points...

I think in a fairly high-scoring game, I'm going with my homer prediction. Redskins 30, Cowboys 27.

[Sheriff Gonna Getcha]

The keys to the game are as follows:

(1) The O-Line. We'll be facing a good pass rush and good run stuffers. Our O-Line needs to step up and pass protect and finally start opening running lanes.

(2) The Secondary. We can't let Owens get off the line clean and run wild like he did last year.

(3) The Playcalling. I liked the playcalling in weeks 2 and 3, and hated it in week 1. I want to see us continue to use those bubble and flanker screens to Moss and ARE. Those plays are especially critical this week, given that Dallas has a good pass rush. I also really want to see Jason try to go deep at least 4 times this game. Don't let the Cowboys stack 8-9 gusy in the box.
