The Giants have won their past eight consecutive road games. In the history of the NFL, teams have met three times in a single season with one team having swept the regular season against the other only 17 times, and 11 times the 2-0 team prevailed.

Have you heard these already?

They are about as useful as sitting around thinking that Jessica Simpson is somehow the doom of the Cowboys season.

You want stats? How about this one: The Cowboys have beaten the Giants twice this season. There’s no reason to think they won’t beat them a third time. No T.O.? The Giants are coming in without Jeremy Shockey. Injuries happen. And they don’t change one simple fact:

The Cowboys either show up to play, or they go home.

Jessica Simpson isn’t going to decide that one. Neither are these useless stats that are being thrown around. The only people that are going to decide that one are the ones suiting up to play this weekend.
