BOTH TEAMS SUCK                   the spread hasn't come out yet.  nothing is posted as of now. I'm thinking take the UNDER.   it may debut at under 45.5                    dallas fan here, ashamed of my cowboys, but .......Romo...he's my qb.  and I'm gonna ride wit him till I die  (or he gets benched)

I bet its Minn -2.5

Devin thomas69, you sound like TO with... "that's my qb" sob.

Randy Moss ALWAYS gets off on the cowpies.

Dallas will lose against Minny in the dome, but will win against NYG at home.

Dallas beats themselves

Minny -1

i guess i shouldn't be surprised to see i'm the only one on here touting the cowboys, but that line is just begging people to take the vikings.  These teams are in very similar situations as vastly underperforming superbowl contenders so with the game in minnesota the vikings should be favored by 3, but they're offering it at 1.5 right now.  Vegas is scared of dallas money is what that spread tells me.  More research coming but the lean here for me is...

DAL +1.5

Battle of the 1-3 teams. If the Vikings had won Monday night i would think that Dallas would have the edge, but since they loss and need the win and are at home, the Vikings take it. Besides the fact that Dallas is not a very good team.

The reason why Dallas commits so many penalties is when a team lacks talent they have to make up for it someway, by jumping off sides, holding, block in the back etc.

Dallas is going to get a heavy dost of Randy Moss, who's going to cover him? Right now this game is Vikings-1.0. The Vikings just have to win to cover. By game time it will be -2.5 from the Cowbilly money, the true believers and victims of the hype machine.

Remember that both teams wants/need a win here, anything can go wrong. Farve might even consider sitting out a game or two and if he does, I'd pick Romo's team to finish it off. Will wait for a couple of days and see if Farve's situation is in or sit.

its a revenge win here. dallas 24 - minnesota 23

    If it isn't enough with Favre's ongoing sex scandal caper,now we have Brett with tendinitis. Both Favre and Moss are ready for the old age home! Meanwhile, Jerry has given Bum his vote of confidence, that he'll be coach for the remainder of season (again!) A real tossup. My lean:

DALLAS  + 1

Farve does not play defense. Dallas' last trip there they scored 3 points. Romo is coming off of a 6 sack, 3 ints game. Does not look good.

Revenge win? What is this Pee Wee football? Revenge would not enter into it if Dallas played up to their hype and not decided to take a playoff game off.

I may  back off this game.  I still kind of think that the cowboys win, but the fact that they should be catching 3 points here did not deter the dallas loving public from betting this game so i don't trust the spread enough.

 

Dude who is that model in your pic??? Whooaa! Do tell!

Dallas + 1.5  I think they finally turn the corner. Farve is finished. Bum arm. That game killing interception on Monday night goes down in my book as one of the worst.

THE most over rated QB of all time. Mr. interception should be on his jersey.

OK... rant over.

Kenny Britt exposed the Cowboys secondary last week and showed exactly what a big, fast receiver can do deep down the field.  Either PI call or catch...even with the prayers VY was humming up.  If Dallas assigns help over the top for Moss, Harvin will get them inside or Peterson will find room running.  Coming from a Cowboys fan, I just don't see Dallas matching up well here on defense. 

And on offense the Cowboys o-line is really leaking again.  Now Gurode the only real center is having knee issues and sitting out practices.  Bad news.  The brigh spot is the Vikings secondary is really banged up.  But with the combination of Dez maybe sitting out, the Minny defense chasing Romo around again, and the big ass interior lineman pounding away at an injured Gurode,  This does not look good for Dallas at all.

I don't think Dallas is out of it for the year, but in this spot going to play Minnesota on road, and with these matchup problems...all over Minny to win.

cowboys + 1.5

both teams that have cost me loot

dallas=

minny=I HOPE THEY TIE. THAT WOULD BE AWESOMEPLEASE GOD LET THEM TIE. THAT WOULD BE SO FUNNY

You better believe the Cowboys remember Favre and the Vikings running the score up and throwing those TD passes with only a few minutes to go in that blow out playoff game last season.

It might be better for Favre if he sets this out since he is already injuried. Ware and company will be gunning for him.

Romo coming off a 6 sack, 3 ints game with a game against the Giants coming up next week, this is a pressure game for him and he does not do good in pressure games.

Dallas wins a playoff game against a team they already beat twice and the only team they could have beaten in the playoffs and they're declared a NFC favorite to go to the SB. The Cowbillies can take that star off their helmets and put on a Lion. Watch this team fall apart when they get behind.

Don't believe the hype, Vikings are the play.

"You better believe the Cowboys remember Favre and the Vikings running the score up and throwing those TD passes with only a few minutes to go in that blow out playoff game last season."

So what, if the Cowbillies had any pride they would not have let it get of hand like it did. It's nothing worst then watching you getting your aassss handed to you and there's nothing you can do about it.

Minnesota Vikings -1

DALLAS COWBOYS   


I hate fading you W8 but Cowboys are comin' in and shutting this fucking dome crowd up quick.  Mark my words, Dallas wins this game. 

Battle of the network morons. Both teams are feeble... for now. Min shows more promise. Minn for the small

Guys - the reason why the line is only 1.5 is based on whether favre plays or not. Obviously if he plays, Vikes will go out to maybe -2.5.

"Brett Favre has played an NFL-record 289 games in a row."

You really think he won't play?
