What's better for the Skins tonight -- A Cowboys or Giants win?

skinsguy · 10-25-2010, 09:24 PM

The Giants need to lose to force a three way tie. A Giants win makes them 5-2 in the conference (one of the best records in the conference), sole possession of the NFC East at this point, and the Redskins looking at a tough schedule after the bye week. The Giants' schedule in the coming weeks isn't nearly as bad as ours. Dallas is not going to sniff the NFC East title this year, so them winning tonight is not going to hurt us at all.

As much as I hate to say it, you have to pull for the Cowboys tonight. It is the best thing for the Redskins while our team is struggling.

Schefter is saying broken collarbone, which normally means out 8-10 weeks. Other reports are saying broken clavicle, which could mean 4-6 weeks. Which is it?

Btw how bad are the Cowboys that they had a 20-7 lead and when it went into halftime it's 24-20 Giants? Bad enough that I doubt they win this game. Giants gonna be 5-2, Cowboys gonna be 1-5 and Romo will be out for at least a month. Ouch.

Broken clavicle was the very early initial report. I'll bet Schefter did a little more digging and he probably got it right.

I will say that Hakeem Nicks is one of the few that I've seen in college and gotten right as far as knowing he was going to be huge as a pro.

Giants are on their way to a rout.... so we better bring our A game to Detroit next week

BleedBurgundy · 10-25-2010, 11:03 PM

Cowboys are a defeated team. They have no heart.

pg86 · 10-25-2010, 11:04 PM

I would say a cowboys win *washes mouth out with soap* but romo won't be the same

pg86 · 10-25-2010, 11:07 PM

Wait I forgot to add my traditional dramatics....Romo got semi'd he's gonna want the licence on that

pg86 · 10-25-2010, 11:14 PM

IT wouldn't surprise me at all if we beat the Giants twice this year

It would surprise me. I just hope we could beat them once. With the way we've been barely getting by, that won't work against them.

who knew we would play the colts tight, beat the packers, cowboys, and philly. Should have beat Houston. I can't believe some would count of us out of a game at all this year. We are dangerous. Just ask anyteam we play.

Jim Cladwell even said as much last week after the game. He didnt say we had a good team. He said we are a very very very good football team. This is much different then just normal coach speak.

DO NOT EVER COUNT THIS TEAM OUT!

This kills Dallas, and with Romo down, maybe for more than this season also. They have to replace that old ass line, Witten isn't getting any younger, and Bryant hasn't shown me squat yet. Their RBs suck also, especially behind that line. Romo isn't going to get the job done for them, so they need to draft a QB. By the time they get it straight Romo will be past his prime, if he even had a prime. Guy should have worked on improving his skills and not banging Jessica Simpson.

Romo's got a new girlfriend. He and Jessica broke up a long time ago.

Well..........I cannot fault him for that choice.....

Why? They've shown they turn the ball over plenty and they nearly gave a Romo-less Cowboys team a second life.
