Let the chips fall where they may. Or in their home stadium.

Eating with relatives in St. Louis=later dinner (hour difference)=me likely not being able to see game :cry:

EDIT: Take it for what it's worth, but Romo's never lost a November home start.

Well, he's about due then. Time for the Cowboys to make an early start on their traditional December collapse.

Looking forward to this game. It's live on Sky over here. So were the games against the Rams and the Panthers, and I'm hoping that it's 3rd time lucky.

3rd down offence and defence will be critical. Let's hope RGIII's Texas homecoming is a happy event.

At Just 22, Griffin Has Already Built An Impressive Legacy

By Jonathan Auping


Thanksgiving with the Dallas Cowboys is an American tradition. Nearly the entire country tunes in every year to watch the team with the stars on their helmets. But this year a man will walk into Cowboys Stadium who might steal some of the nation’s attention, just like he has done in every stadium he’s played in for the past 15 months.

But when people watch Robert Griffin III, they don’t just watch with curiosity. They watch with their own expectations of greatness. Of course, that might be Griffin’s own fault, considering that’s what he has provided on a weekly basis.

For a 217-pound, 22-year-old kid, it might seem like Griffin has the weight of the world on his shoulders. He’s carrying the expectations of an entire franchise, the city of Washington, 53 teammates and the marketing future of the NFL. But Griffin didn’t get to where he is today by feeling the effects of pressure. In fact, he shrugs off the implications of pressure as if it’s something he doesn’t understand.

“I’m a confident guy,” Griffin said.

We can do this.

A little further down, talking about what we gave up for RGIII:

In fact, the Redskins packaged an incredible deal with the Cleveland Browns to acquire the No. 2 overall pick in the 2012 draft, giving up their first and second pick of that draft, as well as their next two first-round picks. In other words, Griffin could not be a bust. Griffin was relatively unfazed by the fact that the Redskins basically mortgaged their future on the hopes that he would become a superstar.

Trailing 27-14 late in the fourth quarter, RG3 kicks his game up to another gear, leading the Redskins on two straight scoring drives to pull out the miraculous 31-27 win. Give that man a turkey leg, if not the entire turducken, as he completes 15 of 20 passes for 223 yards, while adding a TD on the ground that helps pull the Redskins within six before a Tony Romo pick-six seals the game late for Washington.


:lol:

I was wrong about everything last week, even the the stadium they played in so...my prediction is a cowboys blowout - in the spirit of me making bad predictions.
Go Skins!

Eh.... Not bad.
Call me old fashioned, but I'd prefer the 48 to 13 stomping of the pukes... 350 yards passing a bill on the ground and 120 for Morris.
570 yards total offense 6 touch downs and two chip in field goals late in the fourth as we run vanilla plays and chew up the clock with a commanding lead.

RGIII is surely going to be too much of a legend to lose his first game against the cowgirls!?!?!?

Nice to see they're not going to waste any time showing us they're going to lose.
