It's official. The Cowboys-Saints game Dec. 10 has been moved to 7:15 p.m. as part of the league's new "flex" schedule. It's hard to believe that Sean Payton and Bill Parcells will be squaring off in a game that could decide home-field advantage in the playoffs. And by the way, Drew Brees is the only quarterback in the NFC who is keeping pace with Tony Romo right now.

Get your priorities straight... we're talking Cowboys football! Not to mention a shot for a deep run into the playoffs!!! Call in sick or risk being tired for a day.

This really screws up my plans! My brother and his wife are flying in from DC to see the "noon" game. They were to fly out at 5:45PM! Matt, who do I complain to??

Vick ya bonehead....

Yeah, thanks a lot NFL. For those of us who don't live in Dallas and would have had to watch Minnesota at Detroit, we really do thank you.

Well you can wait for the Replay on the NFL network or you can TIVO ROTO. Damn it is going to be a GOOOOOOD Game!

This is awesome! The flex schedule has already allowed me to see a few more Cowboys games than I normally would have. Being stuck in Jacksonville, all I get is Jags, Bucs, Dolphins, Falcons, and Panthers. I can't wait to move back to Dallas.
This move keeps me from having to watch it at a bar, dropping $20-$30, with no audio, and being ragged on by all the Cowboys haters of the world. Thank you flex schedule!

Yet another thumbs up for flex scheduling from out of market. My cable system even has NFL Network, so I should get to see the rest of the run, except maybe for the Detroit game.

This game will be worth staying up late for, and then heading to work like a zombie at 2:30am. I like the sound of the Cowboys having home field advantage.

Even if Dallas wins out to finish at 12-4 they wouldn't be guaranteed of a 1st round bye. Seattle could win out to and they would win a tie breaker based on record vs common opponents. Dallas needs to win out and have Seattle lose once, that would assure them the #2 seed because I don't see Chicago losing 3 of their next 5.

sufficiently buried in this thread is good enuff to be bold while everyone else is lookin' someplace else:-)
tho jients are the closest obstacle and certainly warrant concern, i'm just as anxious about following week with saints as their coach payton has the horses to pull off a stunner...in addition to intimate knowledge on what makes the romonator tick...
could be a deadly combination...'r-at least highly irritating.
