Wow, I thought the odds would be a lot more even.

Actually, I like both picks. Every week I think the Farve bubble will pop and the Packers surprise me. This should be a close game. It really will come down to can the Packers secondary stop Romo and T.O. I always say I won't bet the over/under but I think this should be a high scoring game. I'll bet Packers and the over too.

I like GB and Favre vs that weak Dallas secondary here.
I've just grown to really respect what Favre has accomplished and done for The NFL over the years. Even if you're not a Packers fan, he's just fun to watch because he loves to play the game and plays it right with no attitude, no nonsense, just gives it his best win or lose.
I'm rootin for the guy all the way. I'm gonna enjoy what should turn out to be a pretty damn good Football game tomorrow night.

You and I must think a lot alike, because this must be the eighth thread I have read through were out was about to say something and you set it for me. So from now on hold off your opinions so I can actually post something :-)

Just so you guys know, from here on out, I will be including the point spread in all NFL bets. The choosing a winner will now be a bit tougher but the payouts will be better if you choose correctly.

That's good to hear...betting with the spread makes things much more interesting (Hey, I may even bet against the Patriots)...anyway, as for this game I like the Cowboys in a close one. The Packers team, really their defense is a little banged up and I don't expect them to be at full speed (if all the starters play). Favre is having the season of his career, but it can't last forever. He is pretty old and its getting late in the season, so I woudn't be surprised if he turns over the ball against a solid Cowboys D. The Dallas run game could be the difference maker. Having 2 great backs will help control the clock and keep Favre and the Packers offense off the field. Romo's idol is Favre...hopefully he wont be too star-struck for the Cowboys sake. In the end I do like the Cowboys in a close one, but I may just put a little on the Packers because the odds are great and it seems like such a close game on paper.

I was going to bet on the Cowboys but geez...the odds are really not in the favor of that bet...and I just can't let myself bet against the Cowboy's (my favorite time since forever) no matter how big of a Favre fan I am.

Ya, Patriots had a 28 point spread on the last game and barely won it by 3 points. It will make it much more interesting I think.
