Big Game Tonight

After a disappointingly futile performance against the Steelers followed by the doldrums that annually mark the bye week of my favorite team, I'm pumped for the Redskins to play the Cowboys tonight. 

And I really don't have much else to look forward to today. Regrettably, I overslept and never got around to setting my fantasy roster. I can safely say that I have less than a 2% chance of victory this weekend. Whatever, my team sucked anyway--blew my first round pick on Tom Brady so that I could finally benefit from his awesomeness in some way. That sure paid off. Go Skins!

I'm actually worried about the game tonight. I don't know if I'm entirely convinced that Tony Romo can effectively play quarterback with a still-injured pinkie, but I feel the same way about Portis' knee. 

Those factors aside, I'm thinking the Cowboys will play with a desperation that the Redskins can't possibly match. That's what worries me the most. Not only that, but also the fact that the Skins offensive line has been completely unable to pass-block lately. DeMarcus Ware and the rest of the Cowboys defense should be able to sack Jason Campbell at least five times tonight. 

I try to have faith, but I'm just not feeling it tonight. 

Prediction: Cowboys win, 14-10
