my reasoning is: as if it matters:
Cowboys have a potent running game. Best in the league, while that means jack squat in this day and age of pass-happy prolific offenses, they are well-balanced with a potent passing attack of their own. Of all the contenders left, at least in their own conference:
New Orleans Saints: running game has potential but inconsistent, Pierre Thomas hurt, they have bigger problems overall with 2 game skid they are on
Philadelphia Eagles: most dangerous passing team, has an average if not below average running game (I believe)
Arizona Cardinals: fumbling problems/confidence problems in BOTH backs
Minnesota Vikings: Peterson is the best back in the country, yet Vikes leaned on Favre, and now his teeth are deep into their balls, and he won't let go, they are struggling like Saints, but if they find that balance again, watch out.
Green Bay Packers: Ryan Grant has been stepping up of late, but he doesn't compare to three-headed monster Dallas has.
- Cowboy's D peaking at right time to help carry momentum, and as long as Romo keeps mistakes at a minimum, they have a puncher's chance, especially at +1200 this late in the game with a playoff spot already secured.
- I just think while in a league of passing, fundamentals like running the ball, and defense will still win out when you need it most: playoffs. Just as New England is starting to find their running game, I feel like such teams will be dangerous come mid-to-late January.
- As I've effectively killed their chances with my jinx, I still stand by that partial half-ass attempt at objective analysis of why I choose to throw away another unit on fruitless causes. lol
