I live in Saints Country. This week's game has been thrown at me ever since the schedule was released practically every day. And every Saints fan has told me for weeks how much their team sucks and how Dallas will railroad them.
Me? During the past month, I have told each and every one of them that it would not surprise me at all if New Orleans won. Before November, I trusted the team about 85% to improve and compete for the playoffs and beyond. That level of trust has evaporated to about 20% right now.
Solid teams can stumble but they can get themselves back on track. Dallas must prove to me that they are a solid team by bouncing back from a dreadful November that had one bright spot (and incidentally NO Greg Zeurlein).
