Well, as we used to say in the schoolyard: "You started it!" when you brought up past performances in openers...LOL! The one intangible I feel that will work against the 'Boys is that they will be pressing and a bit tight, while the Giants, home and defending champs, will be relaxed.

And Eli fears no one...he respects Ware as player. But let me ask: would you rather have one Ware, or one each of JPP, Tuck and Osi? Romo will be running a lot of play action to slow the pass rush (and perhaps a screen or two), but eventually he will be looking deep downfield for Dez and he'll get sacked. You guys can't double-team everyone every play.

And finally, on offense, look for the ex-Cowpoke tight end, Martellus Bennett to have a BIG game.

Haha Mar-tell-us Bennett, yes, I hear there's much excitement in NY about that stiff. You will be sorely disappointed in him. He's more concerned with his budding career as a jester than playing football. Hands of stone he has. Now, he can block well and that's how he should be regarded- as a lineman. And a rapper/comedian.

Note that Ware may be finally getting some help from rookie Ty Crawford and some pretty stout LBs as pass rushers Victor Butler, Sean Lee... hello?...Hatcher is coming on strong too as a pressure player; we saw that in the PS. DC Ryan has some pass rushing stunts he's never shown in Dallas, due to the shortened 2011 offseason, to get pressure on opposing QBs; whereas, Dallas has seen the Giants' best schemes.

Romo has the advantage of experience and will negate the rush as best as can be hoped for... he'll take four-five sacks by games' end but only after finding Murray for short passes and turning them upfield for big gains throughout. And look out for the little smurf, Cole Beasely, in the slot on quit-hitters across the middle. Will Hill or A Rolle cannot contain the little jitterbug. Think Wes Welker with not quite the explosion and powerful frame. I think Dez will match up with Michael Coe, and that's just unfair. Bryant will own him.

Plainly NY will have its hands full Wed night. Your humble poster cannot wait.
