1. Green Bay Packers: If they beat the Cowboys next week, will people stop sending emails questioning my sanity (and sobriety) for ranking them No. 1?

Shocker.

With all due respect to the Packers, I can't imagine anyone actually having them ahead of the Cowboys. The Cowboys are loaded with talent that is proven.

The Packers may have talent, but it is not as proven, and I'd argue not as deep. The Cowboys are a scary team, if one of their players go down, they've got a back-up who'd be a starter on most other teams.

Actually, the only position I think the Packers clearly edge out Dallas is at WR. Even then, I'd question having the Pack as #1.

If the Packers play up to their potential (and get in a rhythm early and often) this will be one heck of a game.

Actually, Packers ARE proven. This is the same exact team that made the NFC championship game. W/O Brett Favre and right now, his replacement is not too far behind.

If they are #1 right now and the team has not hit its peak yet, it is scary what they will be like when they do...

I disagree a lot. I don't think the Cowboys are that deep, and we are hands down better than them at WR. They have a good Oline which is a huge factor. But that Philly game was smoke and mirrors i think. The big play can be contained and if so what are they gonna do then.

I also think we are more experienced than the Cowboys. We stayed in the post season longer last year and made very few changes.

and never forget the potential meltdown to come when all those ridiculous headline grabbing superstars can't handle their first loss.

I don't think we contained the big play last time we played against them. I don't recall specifically.

we also weren't getting the pressure last time, that I've seen from the Packers so far. Its all about pressure. we pressure, we win.

I am not saying its a cake walk. I just happen to think we are a good football team and until Dallas wins a playoff game... we are better.

romo does not do well under pressure he showed that against the eagles the only reason eagles lost is that badpass to westbrook if mcnabb would have just handed the ball like he usally does they could have had that game,but the fumble came and the cowboys took advantage of it,and i feel our d-line will be able to put lots of pressure on romo i know he can scramble but it is more backward than forward get them in long situstions can make a mess of a game plus if our o-line stays on the field longer and wear down their d-line can be a factor that was going for the eagles to

    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
