Official GDT - Cowboys vs Steelers!

Yeah, I just don't fear that Steelers offense so I'm thinking 21 is a pretty good bet for our magic number. Of course, that's still a pretty big number against a stout defense like Pittsburgh...

At a quick glance (so I might've read it wrong), they've only given up 21 points or more THREE times this year. SO it's definitely a problem getting there. With this weather, I think if you can get there...you've got a real chance.

I figure we need a TD from either our defense or special teams - 14 should be do-able for Romo and Choice...

Probably so...but if that's the case, come on Defense. I don't see a major break-out run via special teams.

Snow games usually have a couple unpredictable big plays - it just depends on which guy's cleats dig into the ground and which guy's catch ice...

Better pray to the Football Gods!

Just heard on Fox that no one knows why but Pac-Man's role has been upgraded and he's expected to take Henry's spot while Henry will play some at free safety. I don't like the fact we're relying on Pac-Man so much or the fact that we wait now to put Henry at safety but I do have faith in Wade Phillips when it concerns the defense.

The crazy thing is though, The Cowboys blog at dallasnews.com went through a stat-breakdown a few weeks ago and Pac-Man was our best corner statistically speaking. Of course, he will have some rust to shake off, but he's been practicing for a bit now so maybe he's ready for it.

Oh I agree. I saw with my own two eyes that Pac-Man was solid before he got suspended.

My complaint is that I thought Hines Ward is the type of receiver made for Henry. A big physical receiver with not great speed. And i'm sure we'll still see Henry on him but I don't like Pac-Man in that matchup. Maybe Scandrick. I don't think you can afford not having Newman on Holmes. Him and Nate are some of the fastest receivers in the league. I'm sure we'll see Scandrick on Washington some but I definately don't want to see Henry on either guy.
