The Philadelphia Eagles vs. Dallas Cowboys Wild Card Game 2010 line has been posted at Bookmaker.com.  The Cowboys shocked Philadelphia at home with a 24-0 win on Sunday.  Dallas opens with a Wild Card Weekend line of -4.

Shutting out the Eagles for only the second time ever, the Cowboys clinched the NFC East and will host Philadelphia next weekend in the playoffs.

Dallas tossed back-to-back shutouts for the first time in franchise history.

With all that going their way, perhaps the Cowboys (11-5) can finally a win a playoff game for the first time since '96.

 

"This ballclub has done a good job of putting its best foot forward when it has to," Romo said. "We haven't arrived and we haven't accomplished anything. This is a step in the process to continue to get to where we want to go. It's a positive one, definitely, but we still need to keep improving. There's hopefully a lot of season left."

Over the last four games, the Cowboys faced the NFL's three highest-scoring offenses and held all of them to their fewest points of the season. These back-to-back shutouts are quite the capper. It hasn't been done in the NFL since Tennessee did it in 2000, and it's only the third time in 50 seasons that Dallas has posted two shutouts in year.

"There's no secret," linebacker Keith Brooking said. "We have a great coaching staff on our defense, we have players that really care about what they're doing. ... They believe in the system and accepted their roles. As long as we continue to do that, I really like our chances."
