The Cowboys have been game planning the Giants for a couple of weeks now. Wade Phillips does radio interviews every Friday afternoon on ESPN radio and he has mentioned really wanting to beat Tom Coughlin and the Giants for a couple of weeks in a row. I don't know if it is something personal or what, but the Cowboys are totally cognizant that the Giants are their main competition in the NFC East. They really want that first round bye week and can't get it without at least winning the division and at least tying Green Bay's record. I'd be happy with seeing them make a good showing but loose against New England in the Superbowl. At the beginning of the season, I was extremely skeptical about the 'Boys even making it to the second round of the playoffs and now it is a distinct possibility. Remember that this week we get to play Tank Johnson who was a key member of last years Bears defense that got them to the Superbowl. He will give us some penetration up the middle with the rush we already have on the outside with Greg Ellis and Ayodele. Our main competition is Green Bay, maybe Detroit(wtf?) and the Giants in the NFC. Nobody else is consistent enough to get in a slugging match with us. #2 in scoring and #2 overall in the NFL ahead of both the Packers and Colts. Hmmm.
