Post Twenty-eight: Dallas Cowboys

I am a Dallas Cowboys fan. So I thought I'd take a look at what needs to happen on Saturday/Sunday for the Cowboys to make the playoffs.

First off, Dallas needs a win against St. Louis. But they need help first. Since the Cowboys have the late Sunday game, it will be predetermined whether they even have a chance to make it. So here are the options of what needs to happen:

Option One: the Redkins need to lose. They've got Philadelphia in Philly. This might be the best chance we have, assuming Philladelphia hasn't just written off the season. I can't believe I'm going to be put in a position of rooting for the Eagles.

Option Two: the Panthers need to lose. They play Atlanta. Well, this one also relies on the Falcons not writing off their season. Gads.

Option Three: the Buccaneers AND the Giants lose. Buccaneers versus the Saints. Yeah, right. But then again, Chris Simms is the Bucs' QB, and we all know how he fares in big games. But then you have to consider the fact that the Giants have Oakland. No chance in hell that Giants lose that game. Oakland sucks (how Collins can suck so bad with Randy Moss and Jerry Porter is beyond me).
