I do think the boys will muster at least 9 wins. Let's just hope non of them are curtsy of the Redskins. Lord knows we have been very generous to them.

That's the same assessment I have of Bledsoe. Let's not forget, that Bledsoe nearly took the Bills to the playoffs last year after having a miserable start.
As to Parcells and the Cowboys O-line, Parcells has said that he is going to offer Bledsoe max-protection and that is one of his top priorities for the year. Parcells is no dummy and realizes that Bledsoe has no feet - he's going to make sure Bledsoe has good protection. That's one of the main reasons they picked up Rivera, who did a fantastic job protecting Favre.
