Merry Christmas to you as well. Hope your chick doesn't murder you!

As far as the cowboys wins at home versus on the road. I'd hazard to guess that the team's they travelled to had worse rushing defense on the whole which given the cowboys game plan catered to them. This of course excepts Seattle. I could be wrong, just going on what teams I saw on the lists.

I dont think road or home made a difference on their losses. Two were Weeden games. First game against SF Romo clearly wasnt with it yet and played like shit.

The win over Seattle was when they were playing OK defensively but not nearly as good as they have looked these past few weeks

This is why the Seahawks defense has looked so dominant the past five games:

1.) A Palmer-less AZ team twice - one of which was against a third string QB. This is a terrible offense.
2.) A Sanchez-led Eagles team. They've been way worse offensively since he took over.
3.) An offensively inept 49ers team twice. The team has also been playing for a coach the players know will be gone next season.

Their past five games have been against bottom third offenses.

While all of that is definitely true, the Seahawks also had some key guys who were out with injury that are all healthy now.

Assuming Fisher doesn't troll them, the Seahawks are pretty much a lock for the SB. Their stadium is the most overwhelming home-field advantage in football. Hell, probablyallof sports, really.

The loss to the 49ers everyone could tell Romo clearly wasn't ready for the season, it's clear to see when looking back on it and how he preformed vs the rest of the season. The loss in the Redskin game Romo got knocked out of it and then didn't play against the Cardinals followed by the home loss to Philly on Thanksgiving following a short week where Romo once again wasn't ready. That shit right there is why I laugh when they say Murray is the MVP, when Romo was hurt and couldn't go Murray wasn't taking the team on his back and lighting people the fuck up. In fact Murray finally lost his 100 yards a game streak against Arizona a game Romo missed entirely, then this last game against the Colts with Murray hurt Romo is 18/20 4TD its obvious to any fan that if there is an MVP on Dallas it sure the fuck isn't Murray it is Romo.

Hell if people with a vote wanted to really award the mvp to the proper person it should be a Co-MVP and it should go to Smith/Leary/Frederick/Martin/Free but they aren't ever going to do something like that.

Any speculation on who is out on Black Monday?

I'd guess Rex Ryan, Marc Trestman, Jim Harbaugh, maybe Mike Smith if Carolina wins, whoever is interim coach in Oakland...

Here is hoping for a Texans win/Chargers loss/Baltimore loss Christmas miracle!

I won't discount how the Seahawks are playing, but it's just as valid a point that Dallas played subpar teams on the road (minus Seattle) as it is to say Seattle has been playing subpar teams these last few weeks. You know what though? With the Seahawks playing like they are, Dallas is kind of an afterthought to many people. You get the occasional pundit who says Dallas is dangerous, but it's almost grudgingly.

Edit: Mike Smith will get canned even if they get that playoff game. 1-9 against every other team and backing your way into the playoffs because of a weak division isn't really worthy of keeping him around.

I really don't see what Seattle has done to make anyone think they're a lock to go to the Super Bowl. They humiliated the 49ers twice, but that team's been a train wreck this year. The last real good team they beat was back in week 3

I don't think Seattle is a lock their offense has been a bit week but the last 5 or so games their defense is out of this world.

Dallas has a much better offense but Seattle has a much better defense. Guess we will see how that plays out. Nothing is lock.

Bet runs through regular season. Whoever has the best quarterback rating at the end of the season wins. Losers wear a Cutler avatar till next season starts.
Since it's statistically impossible for Cutler to catch up to Romo, here is your new avatar:

Let me know if you need it resized to fit, not sure if the forums auto-adjust.

Merry Christmas, you jolly band of malcontents. I really wish there were games tomorrow, I just can't get into pro basketball.
