You can't predict the Cowboys success against our team with the success they had against a lesser defense. If that's the case, we can look at how many points we allowed and how many points the Cowboys allowed. It's a big difference. Our defense #2, our offense #16. We gained 323 total yds. More than the Eagles, Giants and Cowboys did in total yds. Without penalties and stupid turnovers by the special teams, we win this game.

In this game, if we are going to be successful in moving the ball, Gibbs can not rely on Portis as he did last week. The short dump-offs and the screens allow Santana and David to go one on one with Newman and their other CBs. Get Sean Taylor involved early on in the game on offense. Dallas is focusing on Cooley and Portis, so throw to Mike Sellers, Rock Cartwright and Thrash. Dallas is not solid in their secondary. This is where San Diego was successful.

nfl.com says we're the #6 scoring defensse and the #26 scoring offense... points win games, not yards.

USA TODAY reported our defense as 2# behind Buffalo, and 16# in offense. Yards are accumulated in the process of producing points. To me that's important.

I'm talking about our total defense #2 and total offense #16. That's how you assess a team.

if you don't think any other stats matter maybe, but scoring matters to me, as does wins and losses.
