IRVING, Texas -- A new tactic for Terrell Owens: Instead of talking, he wrote a note.

Even Owens apparently knows the Dallas Cowboys' game Sunday against New England, a pair of 5-0 teams and multiple Super Bowl winners, doesn't need any extra hype.

Nor does Tom Brady vs. Tony Romo, and more interestingly, Owens vs. Randy Moss in a matchup of the league's highest-scoring offenses.

In place of the usually talkative receiver, reporters found at Owens' locker Wednesday a nearly poster-sized, typewritten note:

"Dear Reporters,

"Due to the magnitude of this week's game and high volume of questions for the Original 81 about the other 81. I will be taking all questions immediately following Sunday's game.

"Sincerely, (followed by Owens' signature)

"p.s. Getcha Popcorn Ready."

The "other 81" was an obvious reference to Moss, the controversial five-time Pro Bowl receiver who after two difficult years in Oakland is flourishing in his first season with the Patriots.

Owens' postscript referred to his "get your popcorn ready" comment made when he signed with the Cowboys in the summer of 2006 - before he caught an NFL-high 13 TDs in his Dallas debut. Owens has 21 catches for 387 yards and three TDs this season............................

I am taking the Cowboys.
I am putting the faith in Romo getting back on track.
I am also putting faith in TO getting his hands on the
football before it hits the ground.

I am hoping this will be a high flying and high scoring game.

I think the Pats will win this one in a close game. I don't think the Pats are going undefeated though, they will lose to the Colts probably. I actually think the Colts might have a better team. The Colts have played good teams and the Pats have played nobody that is a contender.

I hope they tie.

did anyone see Romo last monday night? exactly. the patriots are number one on all of the power rankings for a reason. with the short week, the cowboys have one less day to get ready for the best team in football. good luck with that.
even though i hate brady, he will take this team to victory. Moss on primetime means touchdowns.

Anyone that has watched the Cowboys and the Patriots play this season will probably argree that the Pats win this one no problem. The Patriots are more loaded then any team has been in a long time and they are playing up to hype.

Patriots win. They are more consistent overall. Less chance of a break down in any single facet of their game.
Cowboys have a chance to win (any given Sunday..) and I would really enjoy seeing the Patriots lose, but I gotta give the nod to NE.

I can remember Moss having huge games against the Cowboys.
I expect another huge game out of him Sunday.
I see the Patriots putting this one away early.

The Putzies are NOT number one in all of the power rankings:

Just remember...when you speak in absolutes, it only takes one contrary fact to make you look stupid.


Consider yourself stupid!
LOL
:P

I think the Patriots will win, but I hope the Cowboys end up with the W.
