Well, the Cowboy fan would be right in that they have a shot. Dallas is a damn good football team - they're different from when the Pats last played them.
Why is it so out there to suggest that the Pats could be at a significant disadvantage in these conditions due to their lack of a consistent run game and run defense? Now, that run defense looks a bit better, they gave up some yardage on the ground last week against the Steelers but didn't s*** the bed. (Steelers are #1 in the league in rushing, no?)
I'm a Pats fan, and I don't think it's assinine to think that they could be in trouble in these conditions...
I don't recall anyone in this thread "not recognizing excellence" or making statements, such as the one you quoted, out of jealousy. They're legitimate points, no?
