Tony Romo and Cowboys Try to Win First Playoff Game Since 1996 vs. Eagles



Ah, the rubber match between division rivals, Dallas and Philadelphia. OK, maybe its not a true rubber match because the Cowboys won both previous meetings. In week 9 the Cowboys beat the Eagles 20-16 in Philadelphia. Tony Romo threw for just over 300 yards and Donovan McNabb tossed two picks. In their week 17 rematch, the Cowboys completely shut down the Eagles winning 24-0. Tony Romo threw for 311 more yards and 2 scores, while Marion Barber and Felix Jones each gained 91 yards on the ground.

None of that really matters now though. It’s lose-and-go-home time. That means Tony Romo is going to totally blow it. At least that’s what the utter certainty of the past tells us. I guess there’s really no reason to watch the game. Except to see all the touchdowns McNabb is going to throw! Am I right!?
