Dan, how can you pick the Bills over Dallas? It doesn't matter that Buffalo is at home or that Dallas is giving up 10 points. The Bills have the worst defense in the NFL (not to mention the second worst offense) and the Cowboys have the best offense (statisically). Dallas will win by at least two touchdowns. You should have learned your lesson last week when the Boys were -13 against the Rams and covered easily.

By the way, Pats fans get to enjoy one more week of being unbeaten.

Even if I jump, Romo will save me. He's that good.

Posted by: Ralph on October 5, 2007 01:46 PM

I like him too. But I stop short of being a Romosexual.

Let's hope Jones pays the lad. He'd better!

The Boys are 4-0 against the spread, so perhaps I should go with them until they fail to cover. But giving 10 points on the road is a lot to give up. It's not that the Cowboys are the Pats or the Colts.

Boys won't be able to get it done against the Pats. Stellar offense, yes but Dallas has given up 72 points scored against them. New England has only given up 48 points, and their defense is about to get better with the return of Rodney Harrison. New England outscores its opponents by 25 points on average, for a reason. League's best offense AND defense.

P.S: Oh yea and Dallas can't stop the pass. Moss will have a field day.

Ha, if you guys want to know who is really going to win the NFL championship this season, all you have to do is watch this!

Even coming from New England, I've got to admit I'm a Romo fan and like the Boyz. But, the Pats are in a league of their own this season and have few flaws. Especially when a big game is on the line and Dallas hasn't see anything like them...yet.

With regard to the Bills/Boyz showdown tomorrow night, home dogs usually rule. Howevaugh, I've seen the Bills up close and personal this season and I don't think they beat the spread. I like this Edwards guy a lot and their running back is the real deal. But, their D won't stand up to the Dallas attack.

Therefor, the points look good.

That team is supposed to beat the Pats Ralph? You were barely able to pull out the win against Buffalo!

Posted by: Ben-T on October 9, 2007 12:31 AM

Hats off to Daniel San. That's why they play the games, I guess.
