You didn't ask me, but...

...Here are a few thoughts on Monday night's fantastic Eagles-Cowboys game:

I can't quite figure out whether Tony Romo's calm demeanor in the pocket and post-game interviews is for real or all schtick to mask some kind of crazy Tiger Woods-esque competitive intensity. This guy is incredible. One minute the Cowboys' QB's hands are made of margarine. The next minute he's Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Clint Eastwood all put together. ... You've got to love Donovan McNabb. He's the consummate professional. You get the sense that he plays football like he's punching his timecard at the local widget factory. He's all business and no smiles. We're manufacturing touchdowns today? Got it. ... I don't think I heard Flozell Adams get flagged for his usual false start penalty, but maybe I missed it. ... Did you happen to notice the choking traffic that surrounded Texas Stadium well into the second quarter? It was apparent on television.
