Well, this was an exciting game indeed. Brett Favre came out like the old Favre and went to slinging, and it hurt the Pack early. I would like to have seen the Cowboys defense hold them better because they are going to need to play better defense to make it through the playoffs, but a win is a win...just ask the Patriots. Romo still had some improve, but he has held in check for only 2 carries of just -1 yard each, but he was able to beat them with his arm. I swear it seemed like Barber just wasn't getting the ball enough, but he ended the night with nearly twice as many carries as Julius (17 to 9). However, it has to stick out in people's minds that Julius was in the game and was used on a 4th and 1 that didn't make it.
Owens has a signature game of late and Crayton had some clutch catches with 2 TDs. I was just impressed with another big win in another big game. As the Patriots continue to win, it looks more and more like they are beatable. How sweet it would be for the '72 dolphins to see the Patriots go undefeated in the regular season and then lose in the playoffs...possible in the Super Bowl to the Cowboys.
Stat of the week: I hear it costs as much as $16,000 just to buy the right to purchase season tickets for the new stadium!!! And, I have to say I believe the Cowboy fans are loyal and biggest in number, but I'm not sure home field advantage will mean as much to us as it would to teams like Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Green Bay, and other crazy fan cities.
