High. Scoring. Matchups.
When the Cowboys and the Saints collide, that's the norm, not the exception. Since 2004 the two teams have met five times, with an average total points of 52, including last year's 34-31 overtime New Orleans victory. The Saints got the win, but Dallas' Dez Bryant was the star of the game, grabbing nine catches for 224 yards and two touchdowns; both of which were over 50 yards (if your league awards bonus points).
More of the same tonight? Things should definitely be interesting.
Dez Bryant has been suffering from a tight back, and although the team hasn't admitted to it, there is fear of a disc problem. Bryant was hampered by a back problem after the "fingertip" game against the Giants last year and left the season finale in a wheelchair. This is definitely a concern, but he appears to be ready to go for this matchup. He's too explosive not to start, but with a trade deadline coming... maybe you should think about selling high if he makes it through the game.
CBS Sports ranks him a consensus 4th of all skill players this week.
DeMarco Murray did not appear fully healthy last week and Dallas didn't seem interested in making holes before giving up on the running game. Still, he led a potent offense in touches. He's Yahoo!'s 13th ranked RB.
Darren Sproles has practiced all week after a concussion and appears fine. However Marques Colston's knee limited him in practice all week and he's questionable. TE Jimmy Graham is going to be questionable but playing more often than not, so keep him in your lineup unless you don't really have any interest in winning your league.
