Dallas Cowboys.com Report
IRVING, Texas – With Eli Manning winning his second Super Bowl in five years, and edging out Tom Brady both times to do it, and now Robert Griffin III joining the Redskins, there has been a lot of discussions lately about the best quarterbacks in the NFC East.Tony Romo and Michael Vick certainly make it an interesting debate that seems to have various orders depending who you ask.

By then, a lot of those rookie-QB woes should be behind him and the Cowboys will likely face a very confident player. And only one can imagine what he'll be like for the season finale on Dec. 30. He's still a rookie but the threat he poses was good enough to crack the Top 10.Next
