I'll take the opportunity to discuss the etymology of that particular phrase instead. "How about them [insert sports team]" seems like a standard phrase in American popular culture and daily life, but where does it come from? It's rather un-grammatical, not the most natural way of starting a conversation, so I take it someone must've started saying it, and infected enough others that it spread throughout the entire country... is it from some TV personality, or really just some random anonymous person?
How bout them.....Broncos?

Great game, but as a fan there's one thing that displeased me greatly...

It was basically the slogan of the Cowboys when they got good again under Jimmy Johnsons coaching.

Okay... I suppose you did answer the question, somewhere deep down in that whole thing.

I usually get around to it at some point; you just have to dig through the tangents.

Dallas was above .500 coming in, now 2-2 (.500 exactly). Bengals are 3-1 (.750). Both Denver wins.

To be fair, his accuracy will probably improve as the season goes on
