    Tony Romo got an article written about him on this site I go to. I'm glad he's starting to get some props from some non-Cowboys fans. The guy is just good and can make all the throws. Im looking forward to many full seasons of Romo to come.http://www.protrade.com/content/DisplayArt...3b-8d6f968a61b6

    As much as I hate the Cowboys (obviously), I actually think he's really good. Overrated? Wow, definitely. But he's still good and might be a top 15 QB this year, and maybe top 10 next year.

    Hes played really well so far, but the question is if he can keep playing well. I think theres a chance he could be the Quarterback that Dallas is looking for though.

Not only his quick discussion making and what seems to be pretty good accuracy but also, his swagger. It seems the team is responding to him pretty well. I think what put Dallas behind the curve a little bit was Parcell's loyalty to Bledsoe. And that's understandable. I'm not sure if he's overrated or not. If you look back throughout his college career, he's shown that he could be a pretty good QB. Now what scares me a little is that he takes a lot of chances, which is good when you have Owens and Witten being as big as they are, but I think for at least one or twho games it's going to catch up with him. But he's exactly what Dallas needs...at least for right now!

Actually the last 4 or 5 games. And how about Newman? I think is having a Pro Bowl year...and to think that Dallas was going to miss Ellis. Don't get me wrong we needed him, and I'm hoping that we don't get burned later in the year because he's not there.I would go so far as to say that Dallas is probably better than Chicago. Of course, this could all change next week.

    Dallas isn't better then Chicago. They might be the Second Best team in a very mediocre NFC though. :whistling:

    The Cowboys are a great team but I have to agree with Venom... the NFC isnt all that great.

I'm not sure if I did that on purpose or not...ha-ha.But here is why I say (in my opinion, of course) that they are. A few points for you:1. If you look at the teams that Chicago has beaten: Green Bay, Detroit, Minnesota, Seattle, Buffalo, Arizona, San Fran, Miami, Giants and the Jets; the one team that beat them was a team that was ranked in Top 5 in defense. All the rest either has a mediocre to bad defense. Not to mention offense as well. Now you can make a good case for the Giants but remember their defense is completely depleted.Looking at Dallas's opponents, they are better. And the teams that they lost to, with the exception of the Giants, Dallas could have very well won. But we all remember that in each one of those loses; Mr. Bledsoe threw interceptions on the on-a-head scoring drive. Not to make ANY excuses that just the way the games go.2. Respectfully Chicago and Dallas defense are in the top 10, with Chicago and 1 and Dallas 6, soon to be 5 or 4, after this week. So it would be a very defensive game. But here is the difference: Dallas has more play makers than Chicago. As you can tell recently, Dallas spreads the ball around. Again, Chicago's opponents, where they've scored a lot points are very mediocre at best on defense. Not to take anything away from Chicago because they are a very very good team, they are only playing the teams that they are given. So you can't blame them at all. But the one thing that sticks out is they got blasted by the one team that was any good on defense. Although, we know this could change at any week, especially with Dallas. But if this is the real Dallas Cowboys, than I think they are better than Chicago. Maybe on defensively but if you combine the offense and defense they are better. But again, you can't dismiss a 9-1 start. Now of course, this could just be the coach in me that's talking like this. And if it is then we can just chalk this up to be just as ideal blabber or that I'm just a homer. But I do believe that Dallas is just as good as Chicago. At any rate, both teams are very darn good.

Due to a lot of injuries, I would agree that the NFC is mediocre. I'm not going to say very mediocre. But the AFC, after the game Broncos and Chiefs game, their a lot of pretenders over on that side as well.

But, at the same time there isnt another Defense in the NFL that's compareable to the Chicago Bears Defense right now. They have yet to allow 300 yards of Offense to a team this season and they allow an average of 28 yards less per game then Dallas does right now. While Dallas does have a good defense, they are not on the same par with the Bears.In terms of Chicago's offense though, I do agree that they are a bit overrated offensively. But they have shown an ability to be able to do just enough Offensively to win football games for the past 2 Years now. They have a good Running Attack in Jones and Benson and as long as Rex Grossman makes good decisions with the football they have a good chance to win every week. Dallas would give them a good fight, but right now the Bears have proven themselves as they class of the NFC and that won't change until they play against each other. Saying things like "I would go so far as to say that Dallas is probably better than Chicago." is very premature, especially when the Bears are 2.5 games better then anybody else in the NFC right now.

I'm simply comparing who Chicago played. And if you look at those teams offensive and defensive, you'll see they are not that good. I'm not taking anything away from Chicago but you have to admit their division is not good at all. It's probably the weakest in the NFC. And as far as them not giving up 300 yards, again look at who they've played. Those teams, with the exception of the Giants, can't even put together a 300 yard game. While Dallas has played at least 4 or 5 teams that are very capable of putting up 300 yard games. Again this is not to take away from Chicago at all. They could very well be Superbowl champs but I'm only looking at who they have played. Because Dallas has and will face tougher teams than Chicago. But tomorrow will be a tell all for Chicago. They are going to face another decent defense. New England is a little beat up but we'll see how that goes. And if they lose, it shows that they have problems with teams that has a good defense.
