From this point on in the playoffs, you can pretty much take it to the bank that all road teams will be the underdogs. Packers have a good chance, so does Dallas.

I'm a huge packer fan but they have to beat the cowboys to prove to me that they can do it this year. I do think they can do it with a healthier team than the last meeting but they need to step up.

How about we wait til after this weekend to find out which 2 teams from each conference are facing each other?

both teams had injuries last time they faced each other...should be a good matchup if they meet in the NFC Champiosnhip game...which I'll miss cause I'll be playing war games for 10 days....Ugh....

Go AWOL...they probably won't notice you're gone...and if they do, you have a good reason, hehe.

Romo slip up? Last time I remember, Favre got swept by the Bears including in a game where they needed to win to have home field adv. ANother slip - up . . . . Fave 0 and lifetime at Texas Stadium

Little problem is Dallas hasnt looked good at all last 3-4 weeks of reg season

Silent G.......Gotta bring a better argument than that

Vote pending

"sooner31" "favre got swept by the Bears" yeah, favre lost those games...had nothing to do with james jones fumbling two catches when the packers were in scoring position and winning considerably or the kicker getting 2 blocked punts, one for a score, fumbling another, and kicking another a whole 8 yards in the second meeting. nevermind the 50 mile an hour winds in Chicago. you're right..favre lost those games.

agreed with Favre-ulous
Favre wont slip up in the playoffs, like romo. Remember last year when he couldnt even hold the ball for the field goal

bigeleven so your argument is Romo will drop a snap? He doesn't do that anymore and his play at QB in playoffs was excellent. He was the one who drove down to take the lead. Fluke drop is irrelevant. Farve going 0-9 at Texas Stadium in his career as a starter is not.

Silent G, I didn't know a name could be so APT!!! Your silence speaks more volumes than any "argument" you might've put forth...

Basketball Jesus, boy do I hope that you are wrong for the sake of reality, but for the sake of TD purposes you actually brought it -- as opposed to your "opponent" -- and thus you have my vote...

"Favre has appeared driven and motivated throughout the season, while Romo has had multiple slipups."

Perhaps you forgot Favre's slip-up in which he threw 2 interceptions in 20 minutes before being knocked out of the game. Who was that against? Oh right... THE COWBOYS.

He DID lose the games. He may not have caused the team to lose single handedly, but he was the starting QB and he lost both times.

GB PACKERS..................>

Favre and Romo are nearly even in terms of stats, so you have to look elsewhere to decide who'd be the winner. Both Marion Barber and Ryan Grant are excellant RB's, so another probable tie. Now, let's look at receivers: Dallas has TO and Jason Whitten, two of the most dominant players at their positions. GB has a good vet in Donald Driver, and a bunch of young guys who can get it done, but Dallas has the experience and skill advantage over all. In terms of defense, GB has a great secondary with Woodson, Harris, and Bigby, but Dallas' front 7 are probably more talented overall than GB's (although AJ Hawk and KGB are both very good). Finally, the game (if it happens) would be at Texas stadium, where Farve has very little, if any, success.

Overall advantage: Dallas
