One reason i like the Cowboys' chances is that the Saints are coming down the stretch in their quest for a perfect season. Plenty of great teams have lost, against worse teams than the Cowboys, attempting the same thing.

Saints LB Scott Fujita said they don't use a perfect season as motivation. ``There really isn't a lot of discussion about going undefeated,'' he said. ``Obviously, everybody has it in their mind, you know, if we get by this one we've got two games left, then we'll have one more left ...''

The Falcons lost to the Cowboys, and despite suffering key injuries since then, almost beat the Saints last week. Is it that much of a stretch to think New Orleans can't be beaten by a desperate Cowboys team with plenty of weapons?

The Saints can talk about taking it ``one game at a time,'' but it's like the golfer who realizes he's on pace to shoot 59. Most fall short because of the enormity of the situation.

He should be.. We've gotta play man on D and get after Brees. We can man up with them just fine if TNew comes to play. I hate that zone crap.

I watched a clip that had alot of the Saints being asked about going undefeated and was surprised at how many of them were thinking that way...hopefully, they are looking at that and getting ahead of themselves.

Its our LBs having to cover guys is what worries me. Bradie James better bring his A game today because he got exposed against these guys two years ago.
