Romo and Cowboys get Giants for 3rd Time This Year
After a sluggish ending to an illustrious season, Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys now know they will be playing the New York Giants for a a 3rd time this year. The Cowboys have beaten the Giants twice in the regular season, but now will be playing them for all of the marbles in a NFC divisional playoff game.
This will be no easy tasks, as the Giants have proven to be a tough competitor, and they have improved late in the season. Dallas has outscored New York to a tune of 76-55, which to me is not a real comfortable margin. As you can see, these two games have been anything but a defensive struggle.
Tony Romo comes into this game with with a very impressive resume against the Giants this season in their two outings. He has completed 66% of his passes, for a whopping 638 yards, with 8 touchdown passes, and only 2 interceptions!
Needless to say, it looks like Romo has the Giants’ number thus far this season, but being a pessimist, I think it is safe to say that anything is possible, and that both teams are coming into this game with a 0-0 record and a 0-0 starting score. The past is the past, and I hope Tony and the Cowboys don’t let the 2 wins have their guards down.
Eli manning is a hot and cold quarterback, and if he comes in hot, this will be a very tough game, but I still think Romo has the edge as a quarterback, and should be able to help take the Dallas Cowboys to the NFC Title game.
Game starts at 4:30 pm EST on Sunday January 14th on FOX.
GO COWBOYS!
