The dreaded Saturday Eagles pick

I hope the Eagles packed their six-shooters for their annual trip to Dallas. This one is going to be a shootout.


The Birds make another visit to prime time, and the folks at NBC get an early Christmas present in the dream matchup of The Comeback Kid, Michael Vick, vs. America's Team. Look for this game to set records for ratings in the fairly new Sunday night showcase.


Look for Vick to sparkle in the limelight once again.


Both of these defenses will struggle to contain the other team's high-powered offense, but the Birds prevail. Even without Asanta Samuel, who looks questionable again with an aching knee, I don't see Jon Kitna beating the Eagles.


On the other side of the ball, Vick will throw and run all over the Cowboys.


The Eagles just have too many weapons for the Cowboys.


Make it Eagles 34, Cowboys 26.


Last Week: I was on the money as Vick rallied the Birds to a come-from-behind win over the Texans on Thursday night. Said it before and I will say it again. The Eagles don't win that game with Donovan McNabb at quarterback.


Season Record:  I am at 8-4, neck and neck with the Eagles as they face a crucial game in trying to stay ahead of the New York Giants, who loom on the scheule next  Sunday.
