*Disclaimer* This is not a Troll post…..Saints fan here that comes in peace with a realistic breakdown of the Saints and Cowboys.
Offense:
QB edge: Saints, Brees is a legit MVP candidate and the best deep passer in the league. Romo is a product of a system and the talent around him and will probably come crashing down to earth this weekend.
CLOSE BUT OKAY
WR edge: Saints, Coltston is just a rookie and was the steal of the decade, Horn is a consistent veteran and Henderson is a player on the rise. TO and Glenn are average and past their prime but still dangerous.
IF TO AND GLENN ARE PAST THEIR PRIME, WHAT IS HORN? HE HAS 11 YEARS IN THE LEAGUE. IS COLSTON EVEN PLAYING THIS SUNDAY?
TE edge: Cowboys, Witten is a top 5 TE period, we still need help at the position
YOU ARE CORRECT
RB edge: Saints, Bush and Deuce…..possibly the best 1-2 punch in the league. Jones and Barber are pretty good too though.
OKAY
Oline edge: Saints, a rock solid group that has been the key to our big play offense. Dallas oline still suspect from what I’ve seen as Romo's mobility has been able to mask the problem.
OUR OFFENSIVE LINE IS INJURY FREE AND PLAYING WELL.
Fullback edge: Saints….does Dallas even have one???
OLIVER HOYT - AND ANTHONY FASONO - TWO MORE WAYS TO HURT YOU.
Now for the defense…….
DE edge: Saints, Grant and Smith are consistent with rushing the QB. Losing Greg Ellis has hurt the Cowboys pass rush.
UNFORTUNATELY YOU'RE RIGHT.
DT edge: Saints, Hollis Thomas slightly better than Ferguson despite the recent problems.
MAYBE, BUT HOLLIS AIN'T PLAYING.
LB edge: Saints, we are loaded with young talent (thanks for fujita and shanle who lead the team in tackles) and simoneau is a rock solid veteran. Ware and Carpenter have been busts for Dallas.
FUJITA AND SHANLE WERE LET GO BY DALLAS FOR A REASON...THEY'RE NOT BAD, JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO BE ON THIS TEAM....WARE HAS BEEN REALLY GOOD. LBS ARE SO DEEP WE DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT CARPENTER, BUT NOT A BUST.
S edge: Cowboys, Roy Williams is overrated but still better than what we have.
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT OVERRATED, BUT OKAY
CB edge: Cowboys, Newman is a decent player but Henry isn’t that good in coverage, still better than our secondary.
YOU UNDERRATE OUR SECONDARY - IT'S MUCH BETTER THAN YOURS
Special Teams:
Edge: Saints, you have the better punter, but we have a great kicker and return game
Coaching:
Edge: Saints, Sean Payton proving that Parcells success was a result Paytons offensive genius.
YES, WHERE WOULD PARCELL'S HAVE BEEN WITHOUT PAYTON AT THE GIANTS. PAYTON TAUGHT HIM EVERTHING HE KNOWS. THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
Prediction for this weeks game:
Saints 38 Cowboys 17
,
COWBOYS 31, SAINTS 23
Drew Brees is playing on a whole different level right now and no defense in the league is capable of stopping our offense. (BALTIMORE, CAROLINA AND CINDY DID) Romo’s metoric rise had to end sooner or later and Cowboy fans will learn why the Saints are an entirely different animal than the Bucs or Cards. (OR THE GIANTS OR THE COLTS OR THE PANTHERS). The only advantage Dallas will have in this game is exploiting or subpar secondary if Romo has time to throw the ball. Expect a lot of pressure from our LB as they know your team very well (SINCE THEY GOT LET GO), also expect Payton to expose Romo and force him into big mistakes.
Go Saints!
