Temperatures Saturday night in Arlington could dip into the teens. If local ticket brokers are any indication, the mood inside Cowboys Stadium might be a tad chilly as well.

With tickets and party passes still available through the Cowboys and TicketMaster and almost 10,000 seats floating around StubHub, Cowboys-Eagles just isn't a tough ticket.

Weird.

Maybe last Sunday's regular-season finale (100,621) will outdraw the playoff game.

What gives? Recession? Indifference? Saving pennies for Super Bowl parade?
