Baby Eli? I venture that Eli Manning has more experience running an offense than Tony Romo does.

eh, im a business management major...i tend to look at things closely....the point score for the games was 6 vs 10...again, not much difference.

i was mainly pointing out how the cowboys defense has vastly improved over the season...look at what washington put up on the board last time:

Jason Campbell: 231 Yards Passing
Cowboys allowed: 160 yards rushing
26 points allowed


just saying...they've improved a TON

You're not looking at things too closely then. Against the Cowboys, the Redskins linemen made mistakes all night, the receivers dropped several good passes, and they had several key players injured...you can't rely on a RB with a busted knee. The Skins beat themselves in that game, plain and simple.

Against the Steelers, the Skins were just shutdown. They were lucky to get their 2 field goals...and those were off of mistakes that the Steelers made. BIG difference from what happened against the Cowboys.

The Cowboys didn't win because they improved, they won because the Redskins have gotten worse...much worse.

I agree, Jason Campbell has started looking confused and unsure of himself and their running game is not getting the job done. The Redskins, the Jaguars and the Vikings have not lived up to the "expert's" expectations this year while the Titans have vastly exceeded expectations, so it has been an interesting year so far. Without Adrian Peterson the Vikes might have won two games.

By the way, (Baby?)Eli Manning has a Super Bowl ring on his finger, not a cast.

Baby Eli is a Super Bowl Champion and MVP, and is the leader of a team that is currently 9-1 with the best record in the NFC. Can you say the same about Rhomo?

in addition to that rival/divisional games are very hard to forcast.

You're missing my point...Romo's 1st game back was against a team that played terrible and is a long-time rival. You can't make a claim that "the 'Boys are back" based solely off of that win. Get a couple of good solid wins under your belt and I'll give the 'Boys some credit. Of course, one of those wins needs to be in the playoffs.

[Braceyaself]

lol, Most of your wins were against teams that werent even close to be at your level..Romo makes that team, a team. Remeber you guys had plenty of close games with the few teams we beat...assuming your a gmen fan. Well get it back im just hopen for a shot at the play offs

That's because there's no teams playing at the Giants' level.

Exactly...let's get real. The Cowboys winning one game is meaningless.

As a Giant fan, I'm not assuming anything. There is still a lot of football left to play, and as shown last year, anything can happen in the playoffs. I'm feeling optimistic but thats it. The only thing I can trash talk about is last year. No proclaimations or predictions about this year's Super Bowl. Just feeling good at 9-1. I think Cowboy fans need to take it down a notch. It seems like they're planning their Super Bowl parade because they won a game this week.

We see this weekend how Gaints fair vs the Cards, this sunday, but tonight it the Steelers on muddy wet night will win.

[Braceyaself]
