Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants vs. Skip Bayless's Douchery.

Let's say that you wanted to put together the game to end all games in NFC so far. So here goes.

Take one dynamic Latino quarterback named Antonio Ramiro Romo, Tony to you. One team of former me-first individuals, that's Terry Glenn and T.O. Then you take a coach that's cranky enough to get them as one heart, that would be Tuna. You have the Dallas Cowboys.

Now, let's take one great white semi-hope named Elisha Nelson Manning, that's Eli to you. One former team that's now me-first individuals. That's including Shockey the Tard, Strahan the Mouthbreather, and Tiki with Yoko Ono. You have your New York Giants.

Why is this game so damned important? It's only the one game to determine which team that's not the Chicago Bears can hang with the AFC. We've seen the 'Boys take out Eli's older brother this season. We've seen the Giants take the out Cowboys when they had Bledsoe at the helm. So, how is this entire game going to be different? It's easy. The roles that both teams had are now reversed.

Dallas is going in without major controversy for once. The only T.O. complaint this past month was about the release of Mike Vanderjagt. He didn't even keep that one up for very long. A non-complaining T.O. is a very dangerous T.O. This version of T.O. lights you up for multiple scores, or he causes enough of a panic on the field for his crew to get multiple scores.

New York is going with an entire month of controversy thanks to Tiki, Jeremy, Mike, and Eli. Tiki listed that he wasn't getting enough carries. Shockey stated that they're getting outcoached... again. Mikey decided to intimidate Kelly Naqi and raise the ire of all of us media. Eli has no confidence left in himself, and his team has no confidence in him.

If you remember the first game, things were mirrored exactly the same. The 'Boys didn't trust Drew. The Defense was doing the reporter scaring. T.O. yelled at Bledsoe and Tuna all the time. Drew had no confidence in anyone, and the Cowboys didn't have their confidence in him. What a difference a new kid in town makes.

Romo is becoming what Eli was. Romo is now the new it-"rookie" in the NFL. He's only waited 4 years for his shot. Eli was one of Archie Manning's prodigcal sons with the golden arm, sort of. Both men have a lot of pressure on their laps. Eli was told to stay the course. Tony was told to get them back on course. One man has done his job. The other man isn't even given a chance by his team to do the job.

Say what you will, Tony Romo is the mirroring act of this game. For the Cowboys, he's the balance to their force. He's the one ascending to the top of the NFC right now. Poor Eli is falling to the wayside, and it's a shame. Eli could've had a cushy deal in San Diego with LT. Yet, his father's expectations cost him that shot. Now Eli is wondering what if he had that weapon.

All Eli has now is a selfish group of individuals that only want their spotlight without doing the work. The team leaders are failing. Tom Coughlin has lost control. It's only a matter of time before the Maras decide that enough is enough.

Tony Romo now has the path that Eli wants to be on. The Tuna reminds him to be humble or else. T.O. has become his biggest fan. His linemen line up as one massive group of brothers to protect their younger brother. The team leaders put aside their star power and unified as one unit. Jerry Jones is almost to pleased to tell you that he was wrong about the kid.

Say what you will, Skip Bayless. Romo is the real deal right now. The kid might go in and lose today, but it won't be because his team let him down. He told his team that he couldn't do it alone. He could get them the ball, but they had to catch it for him. When you get Terrell Owens and Terry Glenn together pledging their faith and protection to you, you're not a flash in the pan. That shows that they're going to hell and back.

I hope to see the look on Skip's moronic face if Romo completes this team role reversal. Then Romo will have other things to look at. Mainly, Miami...
