The Cowboys dont lose on the road, where the Bengals and Colts arent slouches, either.The Patriots, Broncos, Packers and Cardinals dont lose at home.For most of the other playoff contenders, well, its who knows?Some teams really could use staying at home beyond the holidays — and deep into January.Certainly Green Bay showed on Sunday in its defeat at Buffalo just how much different it performs on the road as opposed to the comfortable confines of Lambeau Field.Dallas, on the other hand, is 7-0 away from Jerrys Place. Come the post-season, the Cowboys might prefer to be anywhere but at home.Maybe even come this week: Dallas is just 3-4 as a host, and the Colts are 4-2 on the road.Dallas coach Jason Garrett believes finding ways to prosper away from home is a learned trait.Weve played these guys before, he said after Sundays 38-27 victory at Philadelphia put the Cowboys in position to win the NFC East. We played a really good game against them up here last year. We played a really close game at the end of the season last year and you try to learn from all those experiences, and you just move forward. I thought our guys did a good job responding.The Cowboys have responded well on the road in two tough locales: at Philly and, most notably, at Seattle. They arent likely to fear heading anywhere in January.I think sometimes you find out a lot about your team and your guys just in situations like that. You know, Seattle — they came back, theyre on the road. They get in a position that its hooting and hollering, the place is going crazy, Tony Romo said of his Dallas teammates. You just put your head down and you go execute. Youve got to make some plays. Obviously a couple guys have to set up and do some things that allow you to do that.You just dont let the whole environment and the whole thing and the way its going affect you. You treat it as if its a tie game and you go out and play.Some teams while at home do more than play. They intimidate. That sure comes in handy in the playoffs, especially against opponents that have not been through such a wringer.New England might be the prime example. The Patriots (7-0 at Foxborough this season) are 18-7 in the post-season since 2001, with three NFL championships and two losing trips to the Super Bowl. At home, they are 12-3, with two of the defeats to Baltimore — a team led by Ray Lewis and accustomed to doing the intimidating.With the exception of 2010, when the Jets somehow won at Gillette Stadium, the Patriots have handled less-experienced opposition with relative ease.That bodes well for them this winter, particularly because the other three AFC division leaders all have fallen to New England, the Bengals and Broncos getting routed at Foxborough.But also bear in mind that after winning their first eight post-season home games with Tom Brady at quarterback, the Patriots are 4-3.One of the teams the Patriots fell to on the road, the Packers, have looked fragile away from Lambeau, particularly lately in ugly losses at New Orleans and Buffalo, and a tight victory at Minnesota.The flop against the Bills could be especially costly because now Green Bay isnt even in first place in the NFC North; Detroit has the tiebreaker by virtue of — what else — a home win over the Packers.Perhaps that makes Green Bays need to win at Tampa next week, then against the visiting Lions even more critical for its post-season chances of success.Aaron Rodgers recognizes that.This is an important time for us to see what kind of chemistry we have on our team, he said. If adversity like this tears us apart or if we can stick together.If we can stick together, we have a great list of guys, and the opportunity to do something special. But if we let this tear us apart its going to be something that sticks with us for too long.One fact that might comfort teams that cant grab home-field advantage for the post-season: only three times since 1993 have both top seeds made it to the Super Bowl.But one foreboding fact to add: it happened last year.___AP Sports Writer John Wawrow in Buffalo, New York, contributed.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Custom Arizona Diamondbacks Jerseys .

Eller scored the midway through the third period after Dallas scored twice to tie it, leading Canadiens to a 6-4 win over the Stars on Thursday night. "It was just one of those crazy games," said Eller, who scored by putting a shot over Dallas goalie Kari Lehtonens left shoulder to the short side. "Usually we dont score a lot of goals, but the last two games it seems like the puck is going in more." Max Pacioretty added an empty-netter in the closing minutes as the Canadiens finished their longest road trip of the season at 3-2-1. On Tuesday night at Carolina, the Canadiens led 3-0 going into the third-period but lost 5-4 in overtime. "Its a big win, but Ive got to look at the road trip," Montreal coach Michel Therrien said. "We had a chance to make a good road trip, and this is exactly what we did. "This (Dallas) is a good hockey team, and they were playing well lately," he added, "so it was a good challenge for us." Pacioretty had two goals, giving him a team-high of 19, and two assists. P.K. Subban had a goal and three assists. Brendan Gallagher and David Desharnais also scored for Montreal (24-14-4). Valeri Nichushkin converted a penalty shot for Dallas. Jamie Benn, Tyler Seguin and Brenden Dillon also tallied for the Stars (20-13-7). Dallas lost in regulation for the first time in eight games, ending its longest streak of games with a point this season at 5-0-2. "I was concerned after going through the stretch we went through with a couple real emotional wins that we might get loose, and we were loose," Stars coach Lindy Ruff said. "Parts of this game, I thought we gambled on the offensive side and gave up some real good chances that we normally dont give up." Seguin, whose goal and assist gave him club highs with 21 goals and 41 points, said the Stars didnt deserve to win. "I think we got aa little complacent after having a soft few games in a row," he said.dddddddddddd "We gave em a lot, gave em a lot of opportunities. Our goalie made some unbelievable saves. (We) kind of left him hangin out to dry, including myself." Seguin scored at 7:42 of the third period on the power play and Dillon followed 47 seconds later to tie the score at 4. Subban called them lucky goals. "Dont get me wrong; they worked hard and they created opportunities for themselves," Subban said. "But two knuckle pucks, "and theyre very deceiving or fortunate." Then Eller netted his 10th of the season at10:39 to put Montreal ahead for good. Nichushkin, taken down by Canadiens defenceman Josh Gorges near the crease, beat goalie Carey Price to his glove side on the penalty shot to tie the score at 2-2 early in the second period. Subban scored at 6:30 to put Montreal ahead. Price got his second assist of the season on the goal. Subban earlier made a backhand pass while wheeling through the left circle to set up Desharnais in the slot for a shot that beat Lehtonen, who was screened and falling in the crease, to give Montreal a 2-1 lead. Benn opened the scoring with his 14th goal of the season at 6:12 of the first period. He struck a one-timer near the right point following a cross-ice pass out of the left corner from Seguin. That extended Benns streak of consecutive games with a point to five, including goals in four. The Canadiens tied the score at the 11-minute mark of the period. Pacioretty took an outlet pass at the red line from Subban, raced in alone on the Dallas net and scored to Lehtonens glove side. NOTES: Montreal wing George Parros, sidelined since Dec. 14 with his second concussion of the season, left the team on Thursday morning and went to the University of Michigan to seek an opinion of a concussion specialist. ...
