NY Post plants fake Jessica (It worked, Romo stunk)

IRVING, Texas - Jess win, baby!

Even a fake Jessica Simpson was good enough to throw off the Dallas Cowboys yesterday, as Big Blue took a Giant step toward the Super Bowl.

The Giants, who notched a stunning 21-17 victory over Dallas in the NFC Divisional Playoffs, had a good-luck charm in the stands - in the form of Simpson lookalike Lynsey Nordstrom.

The real Simpson was the subject of great hand-wringing in Big D all week because of her budding romance with Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo and his habit of falling short on the field when gal pals are in attendance.

Simpson - nicknamed "Yoko Romo" by some superstitious Cowboys fans - didn't show up yesterday, but The Post brought Nordstrom, a beautiful, 21-year-old nanny from Bothell, Wash., to Texas Stadium.

We sat her in the third row at the 50-yard line behind Dallas' bench. The stunner's Simpson-esque vibes must have made the difference - Romo's final drive was stopped short of the end zone.

You're welcome, New York!

"I knew we were going to win when I saw her [Nordstrom]. I'm dead serious!" said Giant die-hard Anthony Triglia, 21, of Staten Island who cheered Big Blue in the heart of enemy territory.

A fake Jessica? Isn’t the real one mostly fake too?

So what was Peyton Manning’s excuse yesterday?

Fox had a LISA Simpson look-alike in the stands.

Don’t worry about it! I got my own problems with ‘em. How do you go 13-0 and then just disappear. I don’t see it as a Tony Romo thing, he’s in his second year for crying out loud. But the rest of that team are seasoned pros and still making rookie mistakes.

This just changed my mind about picking on Romo...

:(

I know I know...bring on the "Clinton cried" jokes. I admit I'm a sucker, but I think TO really means it, and feels horrible for his team and for Cowboys fans.

I don't think anybody thinks this Jessica Simpson has "mystical powers" over Tony Romo. I think the beef they have with Tony Romo is that he should have focused on the upcoming game this past weekend and saved the playboy hijinks for the off-season.

Spending the weekend before a big game with some bimbo at a Mexican resort is guaranteed not to give you good copy in the press - especially if your team ends up losing the big game.

I guarantee that Tom Brady, Brett Favre and Phillip Rivers will be keeping their pants on this coming week. As for Eli, well we all know he's still a virgin.

True, but Shockey did get to sleep with Vida Guerra.

These things sure didn't happen when Jimmy Johnson was coaching the Boys. It's because a player knew that JJ wasn't afraid to cut his a$$ in the middle of the season if he screwed up.

Both the Chargers and the Giants tried as hard as they could to give the games away.

If I’m ahead of either Dallas or Indy with 5 minutes to go, I don’t run up the middle three times in a row. Three and out isn’t a good strategy. When I see 9 guys at the line of scrimmage, it’s time for a play action pass, a screen pass or a quick dump-off to the tight end over the middle.

Fire the offensive coordinators for both teams before they can do that again.

That's called playing not to lose, and I'm not impressed with the strategy either. It sure is popular, though.

Yeah, like playing prevent defense in the last minute of a half.

I hear some very unconfirmed rumors that the younger Manning leans the other way, if you catch my drift.....I hear that rumor mostly from SD Chargers fans, methinks they have a grudge....
