Does Dallas return last year's Philly beatdown?

Does Dallas return last year's Philly beatdown? Both teams have clinched a playoff spot, winner gets the division and loser is a Wildcard. Last year Philly -2' opened up a can of 44-6 whoop ass. I'm seeing Dallas -3 as the early line, can the Boys return the favor this year?

Not an official pick yet - just talking for now: I am LEANING on the Cowboys here because the Beagles' D can't stop anyone. Just last week they had the anaconda wrap on the Chump Broncos 27 - 10 late in 3rd Quarter. Of course I had PHI -5 on 3 of my Parlays. Then PHI goes 3-and-out, and I went to my truck to get my charging cell phone. Shot some BS breeze with the hottie neighbor down the street - upon return to my TV room I see the game tied 27-27 w/ DEN with the ball!!! It was not PHI D that stopped the DEN O - it was Orton reverting to form -missing wide open receivers. The PHI D lost Coach J, an dother key players from last year. The PHI D is stoppin gme from pegging PHI as a true Super Bowl contender... IMSM

The starting center for the Eagles, the one who had delievered EVERY snap from scrimmage this season, is out for the year.

Dallas beat a slumping NOR team and beat a WAS team that has given up. Yay for them but a big step up in class this week with Philly. I think Philly is playing some good ball right now.

I wouldn't exactly call NO's 13-0 record "slumping" (before the Dallas game). But I know what you basically mean: they had recently squeaked out so many games at the end vs. mediocre competition--and they were in for a real challenge by a "do or die" Cowboy team on the brink of elimination. I really like Dallas in this game, as it is a more important measuring stick for them than it is for Philly, IMO. Dallas has yet to prove they can beat a tough NFC East opponent in a big game over the last few years. The question is can they handle the pressure that comes along with it. [I]The f'n Giants sure couldn't the week before against Carolina![/I] (Insert hobbling M&M "peanut man" icon on crutches with black eye and bandage on his ass here. Icon courtesy of Covers.com LOL) By the way, Rumpelstiltskin, thanks for linking the You Tube Nu Shooz' "I can't Wait" video. I hadn't seen it in a while and it brought back all the nice bar scene memories of the mid 80s. :) Unfortunately the results were "I can forget" instead regarding the G-men/Tom Coughlin implosion. (Always love the coach's stare from the sidelines though when his team is melting down.) GL

Dallas has yet to prove they can beat a tough NFC East opponent in a big game over the last few years. -- Well, they did win @ Philly earlier this year.

I thought they lost that game. Yikes. Never count on memory when you're over 45-years-old and you [I]think[/I] you know what the previous outcome was. Nonetheless it should be a great game--but the 20-16 Philly loss on Nov 8th gives them (the Eagles) a little added incentive in Big D.
