DMN Blog: Bears save Cowboys from 'Saskatchewan'

The Cowboys now know they won't have to play on the road during the NFC playoffs, but that was still very much in doubt last night. They assumed they'd have to win at Washington without T.O. to earn home-field advantage.

"I'm telling you, we do not want to play in Saskatchewan," WR Patrick Crayton said. "We do not want to go up there and play at all."

Crayton, of course, was sarcastically referring to Green Bay as a Canadian outpost. And to a dude from DeSoto, there really isn't much difference between the two winter wonderlands.

Crayton and the Cowboys can breathe easy (and not see their breath when they do), thanks to the Bears.
