    But, in the meantime, you can amuse yourself with this.

    Wonderful news, the Bills remain in Western New York where they belong!

    One thing in Dallas' favor is the team is 5-0 on the road and three of their last four are away.

    If they had any home field advantage at all, they might be challenging for home field. Jerry World is a corporate wasteland where they sit on their hands in the lower bowl and the rest of the place is full of road fans because season ticket holders make their nut reselling their overpriced seats to them.

    Unfortunately for Dallas, they play the Eagles on the road, who're one of the five teams, all division leaders, who have yet to lose a home game. Of course, that could change for Philly this Sunday.

    Haloti Ngata suspended 4 games (the rest of the regular season) for PED use.

    Claims he took Adderall, because of course he did.

    .

    Hard to read too much into those stats, because two of their losses came with their QB out or compromised which was a bigger factor than the location.

    League average home winning percentage since 2000 (entering this season) was .572. The Cowboys home winning percentage since JerryWorld opened in 2009 is .468. It's been a problem for them since the stadium opened, not just this season.

    It's also the case that the Cowboys haven't been all that good since JerryWorld opened.

    This year their home losses were to Philadelphia, Arizona, San Francisco and Washington. Other than the Washington loss, there's nothing to suggest they were hampered by any lack of homefield advantage.

    My math was wrong. They're .531 since the new stadium opened.

    If only he were so streamlined and efficient in getting the play off.
