NLF playoffs, Cowboys with an edge over the Packers

The chase for the top spot on the National Football Conference (NFC) have a possible winner, the Cowboys.

The Packers had a clear chance but since Brett Favre got injured in the game against Dallas, opinions are favoring Tony Romo’s team, even tho Green Bay is still in great shape for at least the second ladder.

Favre was hurt on a hit by cornerback Nate Jones, now he’s in danger of losing his run of 249 consecutive starts ( a record that’s about six seasons longer than the next-best by a quarterback ) although he has at lest one week to heal since Packers next game is on December 9^th.

“I had a similar injury last year, I lost feeling in my fingers and I still have some tingling. But I think I’ll be fine.” Favre said.

The Cowboys ended with a six-game winning streak from the Packers and they won their sixth consecutive match guaranteeing them a spot in the NFC playoffs.

This is the best start for the Cowboys in the history of their franchise, with only 4 games left, they have their most wins in a season since going 12-4 in 1995 ( their last Superbowl season)

“It’s pretty amazing to break any record with all the glory this team has had,” first-year coach Wade Phillips said.

The Dallas team is setting their hopes on Tony Romo and Terrell Owens, they know expectations are high, luckily, motivation is sky-scraping too.

“We’ve got ourselves in the driver’s seat, now we’ve got to stay there.” Owens said.
