It was a rout/blowout minus the score

[LittleBoyBlue]

The Saints never got within 2 scores. The Cowboys were trailing with less than 5 minutes remaining. I can't buy into not feeling threatened when we were 3rd and 20. The threat might have come from our own mistakes earlier in the game, but they were close to losing regardless.

Agree to disagree.

Never felt threatened.

They got out muscled and out hustled!!!

It's seriously came off to me as...

Seattle thinking the following - "we are defending champions, we are the bad arses
And yet the cowboys are showing us how it's done"

"Could the Dallas cowboys be returning to prominence. Could they make our run a short one?"

The fans sure looked like that to me.

If the cowboys are returning to prominence then the nfl hate meter will be louder than the 13th man in Seattle.

I believe ya, some of the haters probably aren't posting right now.

In '07 after we beat GB this team seemed to have ate the cheese after that game. I recall barely getting by Detroit and I saw us losing momentum going into the playoffs. We got real big headed and we set ourselves up for that loss vs NY.

This team is different. We blew out NO and came right back to go fight 12 rounds with Houston and then we went to Seattle and threw some serious haymakers and they couldn't respond. I'm very confident going forward that our boys will fight every play.

The combination of past failures, and overall perception from everyone will keep this team hungry and humble.
