Minnesota Vikings{12-4} was able to pull out a win and beat convincingly the Giants, but before that they lost 3 out of there last 5 games of the year, and that was two week’s ago, and since Then Dallas Cowboys{11-5} has beaten, The Philadelphia Eagles twice, once the last week of the season, and then last week, they also beat there opponent convincingly 34 -14, The Cowboys won their first playoff game since Dec. 28, 1996, ending a 4,760-day drought, easily the longest in the club’s proud history, Now they go to Minnesota to see which one goes for the N.F.C. Championship with Romo taking on childhood hero Brett Favre.
Five straight scoring drives in second quarter Boosted the Cowboys past the Eagles, The Cowboys have dominated their last four games, scoring early and never trailing in any of them, Philadelphia got Michael Vick back from an injury and used him in place of McNabb for a few plays. He threw a 76-yard touchdown pass to Jeremy Maclin on his first snap, tying it at 7 early in the second quarter, but also messed up a hand-off deep in his own territory, setting the Cowboys up for the touchdown that made it 24-7, The Cowboys limited the Eagles to 18 snaps in the decisive first half. Philadelphia gained only 140 yards in that span — or, 64 on all plays other than Vick’s TD, McNabb wound up 19 of 37 for 230 yards, with a touchdown and an interception, while Romo finished 23 of 35 for 244 yards with two touchdowns and no turnovers, The defense has been there strength, with the offense coming through with plenty of points and few turnovers, Dallas was able to stretched the lead to 27-7 by halftime, Philadelphia was not able to generate anything for much of the second half , DeSean Jackson, who was kept without any huge gains for the third time by Dallas, although he had a 4-yard touchdown catch early in the fourth quarter.
A strong finish for Brett Favre and the rest of his teammates, did everything right that went wrong in December, Favre finished with 25 of 31 passes for 316 yards and four touchdowns in less than three quarters without a turnover, Controlling the game from the very first drive against the Giants, They tried 35 passes and ran only 22 times during the first three quarters, even keeping the offense on the field for fourth-and-goal at the 1 on Favre’s final possession, “I do think we tried,” coach Tom Coughlin said, adding: “I’m not going to say it was a great performance, but they all came to the stadium wanting to play.”While the Giants gained only 73 yards in the first three quarters, the Vikings sailed up and down the field and posted their highest score of the season 7- 44.
Out of the four game’s this Weekend, this look’s to be the closest game of them all, the line is Vikings -2 1/2 and it hasn’t moved more than 1/2 either way, and it should be a dog fight to the end, if there is an upset this game could and probably will be the game, Dallas wins, to finish any hope for another Super Bowl for Brett Favre.
