He's had a few glimmers of success late in the season but he is fading, I really don't think he can handle the 'boys D.

People are gonna be all over this game this week and point out how great Minnesota is and how much better they are than the Boys. Where as this was true 6 weeks ago, I remember the Vikings finishing the season losing 3 out of their last four with those losses coming to the Cardinals, Panthers and Bears. The Vikes are on a downward slump while Big D is on the rise

True enough. But if the Dallas D can take the crowd out, and get the Vikes out of their game plan (and I think they they will) early on, the boys will roll. Cowboys are hitting on all cylinders, and the Vikes are sputtering. I like this recipe for a big Cowboy win.

Favre has never beaten the Cowboys in the playoffs. I think Dallas defense plays good enough for the offense to win this one 27-17.

Brett has to retire someday, and going out as Superbowl champs is the best way. Viks roll the 'girls 35-17

Min destroyed the Giants....a team that Boys lost to twice this year.

It might be harder than most of you think to win in that Dome.

I like the Vikings at least by 1 TD in this one.

But I'd love to see the Boys make it to the Super Bowl

I think that the Cowboys pass rush will get to Favre early and often. I don't think the Vikings are any better on offense than the Eagles were, with Peterson being the exception. I would still rather game plan to stop Favre.

On offense, the Cowboys are explosive enough now that the Vikings will have a tough time trying to cover Crayton, Austin, Witten, Williams, and still try to contain Felix Jones. And Winfield has lost a step in the Viking secondary.

The Vikes beat a Giant team that had already quit on the season.

Dallas is the hottest team right now.

Cowboys 31
Vikings 17

If the Cowboys play like they have in the last 4 weeks, the Vikings are toast, no matter how well they play.

Defense wins championships and our D is playing GREAT! :clap:

It would be easier on the Viking defense and a lot less painful on Romo if he were to just vaseline himself up before the game.

hate to break this to you guys, that eventhough the Cowboys are on a roll... they have not seen a defense like what Minnesota has... Romo has always had problems with teams that can get pressure with its front four... Flozell will have a very hard time with Jared Allen...
this could be another shootout like Green Bay/ Arizona because I see Favre and Peterson turning the ball over a fair share of times...
Romo has to take his game up one more notch.. if he can Dallas will win... if he cannot... not so sure

I think it will be the other way around. The Vikings have not seen the kind of defense they will get from Dallas. Favre will be under assult all game long. The Cowboys offense seems to finally be hitting it's stride and they have played 11 games this season against defenses as tough as the Vikings. Favre has played only 4 games against defenses even close to the Cowboys. If Dallas plays like they have been playing the past 4 weeks or so then the Vikings go down big.

The Viking defense has given up 60 more points and pretty much the same yardage as the Cowboys defense has this season and the Cowboys have played a much, much tougher schedule than Minnesota has. The Vikings offense has scored 100 more points and compiled basically the same yardage as the Cowboys offense has against that same much easier schedule. But the Vikings offense was hitting on all cylinders early on and has stumbled late in the season and the Dallas offense stumbled early and is hitting on all cylinders now. Could be a great matchup and a close game but it also could be a blow out............ can't wait!

Defense wins championships and right now Dallas defense is playing lights out.

The difference in this game is going to be Peterson.

Dallas was able to basically double the WRs for the Eagles cause they knew their front 7 could handle the Eagle running game.

This is basically the same offense, except with a running game. If Dallas can control the LOS without adding an 8th player to the box this allows them so many options in pass defense.

If they have to bring up help to stop the ground game this forces more one on one and allows the play action to be a part of the Vikes offense.

I'll put this as simply as I can---the 'Vikes ain't the Eagles. The Cowboys are going to have to continue to execute well and make few mistakes to win this one. Favre is a wily old vet who knows how to exploit weaknesses on a defense and he has some pretty good offensive weapons to get the job done. If the Cowboys can get to Farve and not let Peterson slip by them on the blitzes---Cowboys win.

Go Cowboys!

The Viking offense is averaging 120 yards per game rushing with Peterson. This is only 15 yards per game more than the Eagles have averaged this season and is ranked #13 in the NFL. Philly averaged 27 points per game this season and Minnesota has averaged 29. McNabb struggled against the Cowboys defense and I think Favre has never beaten the Cowboys in the post season.

Farve last played Dallas in the play-offs in 95..that stat is meaningless

Again..If Dallas can control Peterson with just the front 7 Dallas will win and honestly might win easily.

If Dallas has to start bringing 8 into the box then Farve will have some great one on one match ups

no... that's not a beat for marching, that's where Favre throws INTs in big games......

dunno why they couldn't have made it "left... left... left, right, middle, left... woulda been perfect...

That's scary. In recent times past when the Cowboys were favored they let us down.
