Dallas will be something of a betting enigma this weekend, a 5-0 team laying more than a field goal at home. But that's what happens when the Patriots come to town. After opening as five-point home underdogs, many are looking at the 'Boys as a tasty bet, especially since they've outscored opponents 80-42 in Dallas this year.
Impressive numbers to be sure. Tantalizing, even. But don't let 'em fool you into thinking Dallas is a good wager.
Why? Well, if you live by the Romo, you die by him too. While he's been lauded for his gunslinging ways, Romo is still rather careless with the football and his decision making leaves a lot to be desired. He's turned the ball over in all but one of Dallas' games this year and is tied for the second-most interceptions in the league with eight.
That's risky business against a Pats team that thrives on takeaways. In its 34-17 closer-than-it-looks victory over Cleveland, New England's defense had three interceptions and a fumble recovery - those takeaways created 21 points. The Pats are tied with Indianapolis for the league lead in turnover differential at plus-seven. The Patriots' defense has forced 11 turnovers (eight interceptions and three fumbles), and the offense has turned it over only four times (two interceptions, two fumbles).
Romo can ill afford to turn the ball over against New England, but his style leads me to believe he won't be able to avoid it. The Pats win games because they win the turnover battles, and this week should be no different.

the cowboys will win like they did last year when they beat indy when indy was undefeated and no one thought it could happen. tom brady is a great quarterback and even if they are down with a few minutes to go he can pull a win out. I think it will be a great game but if the dallas defense can put pressure on tom brady to where he can't make those huge plays, i think dallas can win and the offense has to keep up with the NE offense. it will be a good game though!
everyone says the cowboys are good b/c they beat bad teams, look at the teams new england beat this year!!
go cowboys

nicely, as touted as this interest is, it's going to be super to computer screen for confident. i'm a die no longer elementary Dallas fan, and function been on condition that delivery, yet after observing this night's interest against the expenses, I might desire to ask your self whether Dallas can pull it out. The Patriots are the main comprehensive group interior the league, if for no different reason than they have the main experienced group. And Tom Brady is an astonishing quarterback palms down. yet Romo can throw 5 interceptions, fumble the ball as quickly as, Buffalo can play what in all probability would be their suited interest of the season, and the 'Boys can nevertheless win it? i do no longer think of it's going to be an elementary win for the Pats...or the lads the two. yet all those Pats followers might desire to take into consideration that the lads would be enjoying in Texas Stadium, and that they've already shown that once the chips are down they might pull it out besides. merely like the lads followers might desire to bear in strategies that Tom Brady knows what it feels prefer to win a great Bowl, and what it takes to get his group there. I nevertheless might desire to bypass with the Cowboys nonetheless...and that i basically think of they're going to win it by utilising 3.

Who Cares! I don't like either team.
There are 11 other games on Sunday. Who is gonna win?
I'll tell you who. The 12 teams with the most points when last whistle blows.
You can't say who is going to win. You can only say who you hope or would like to win.
I get tired of questions like this.
