Expect a very Physical Game

[T-RO]

I expect some serious hitting Sunday night. The environment will be very much like a playoff game.

Why so physical?

-The Saints' window is soon closing for championship contention. They know they've got to stay afloat until Brees gets back. The Saints players likely believe they've got to play above themselves to compensate for pedestrian QB play. Saints know they can't win on finesse...have to win by muscling up in the trenches.

-Saints players haven't forgotten last season

-Cowboys know this is their first real test. They know Saints stand in the way.

-This game could decide playoff seeding and home field

-It's going to be insanely loud and that amps up the emotion on the field. Emotional players are hitters.

Man up! Go Cowboys!

Only way to do this damn thing.

Bring the heat. Let the weak leave the kitchen.

Best way to counter that is with a ground and pound running attack.

We need to score quick and get ahead. There will be ALOT of Cowboy fans there.

I think the Cowboys offense will be a little more conservative to start the game. Really trying to settle down and take what the defense gives you. I hope the receivers are going to be sharp on Sunday night, we cannot afford the drops we had against Miami. This is the time for the O-Line to step up as well and get Zeke and Pollard chewing up the field. Dak will also need to run so that it keeps those Saints defenders honest and back off the WR's.

Let Zeke pound those defenders like a tenderizer mallet.

I just hope we come away from the game with no major injuries... and the win, of course.

Injuries will happen. I'm looking for a Warrior performance.
Beat them down.

Games like this seperate Zeke from every other back in the league.

A very physical game where on every play 300+ pound juggernauts pound each other in a professional sports setting? Who would've known...

This game won't be 2 finesse teams going after each other.
"Extreme prejudice" will be involved.

Our players need to enter the stadium with enough energy to raise the hair on your arm/neck/etc.

Effort/ own the trenches

1st series Moore will be setting their defense up. They won't even see the knockout punch coming.

Oh boy! The myth of smashmouth football rears its misguided head
