New Orleans is winnable; it can be a statement game

[jobberone]

Let's hope the 0-3 Saints ain't got no game Sunday.

I don't want to be staring at the tube if the Saints win. This ain't (funny how that word is so useful) no gimme.

dang we would but we is running low on torchlights, searchlights and jack boots for the masses. Instead we is planning a mini putch tonight and Saturday at the local beer hall where we will rough up the Rotarians and assume control of the nearby telegraph office. That is if the mens are not too drunk to carry out das instructions.

What time does the drinking start ?

If Brees is playing, we lose

Matty Ice had 35 consecutive drop backs without getting hit and we are fielding pretty much the same defense Sunday night

Couple that with check down charlie on our side and it doesn't look good

Yeah. It stinks but we are still depleted.

And New Orleans doesn't have anywhere near as dynamic and balanced an offense as the Falcons. Funny that people keep ignoring this. Fans like you are a joke. Conceding defeat to an 0-3 football team.

Dude I usually don't say stuff like this, but y'all are rubbing me the wrong way. Take your pathetic Eagle type fandom and go cheer for the Giants this week. Your scared of Drew Bree's? 36 year old, beaten down, tired Drew Bree's. The same Drew Bree's who threw 50 times against the Cards for 7 yards a pass, and loss. The same one who threw 40 times for 8 yards each and lost to the Bucs. Let me say that again , lost to the Bucs. Now he's coming back from a hurt ego and you expect to lose if he plays. . You type of fake fans crack me up!!!! I've been labeled the biggest realist in this place. And I, as a realistare sick of you trolling fake fans who couldn't take a Step over adversity if you had Ten free do overs. Grow up bra.!!we win this game by 14 -23 points easy. With or without Drewes old ***!!!

We better hope we make a much better showing on defense because if they lay an egg again and we lose this game? We're staring down the barrel of this season turning into a complete disaster that Romo won't be able to salvage when he gets back.

Thank you dude. So tired of seeing those loser mentality from our so called fans.

I don't see it as loser mentality. There were some pretty concerning things that popped up against the Falcons that we have to correct and very very quickly. We're about to be neck-high in games that were going to be challenging even with Romo back there. We have to win these games against lesser teams. Being concerned is not loser mentality.

Did you read the dude's post? The guy is ALREADY conceding defeat to an 0-3 team. That is the definition of a loser mentality. Yeah we have things we have to improve, but people act like we can't do that. Why can't we? It was a bad game. When you have a bad game you have to respond and there's no reason Dallas can't do that.

 

[Asklesko]

don't think there are statement games when all your players are out

 

[cowboyuptx]

If I was playing, my attitude would certainly be different because in my mind, I would be the difference maker, but since I'm just an observer, I have to be realistic and go with what my eyes tell me and what makes sense.

Exactly.

And New Orleans doesn't have anywhere near as dynamic and balanced an offense as the Falcons. Funny that people keep ignoring this. Fans like you are a joke. Conceding defeat to an 0-3 football team.

They don't have a Julio Jones, that's for sure, but who was expecting Atlanta to be able to run the ball like they did... Coming into the Dallas game, Freeman was only averaging 1.9 ypc, and Coleman only 3.8, and we let Freeman go for 30 carries, 141 yards, 4.7 ypc, 3 TD's, and another 52 yards receiving on 5 catches! Atlanta wasn't looking all that "dynamic" until they played Dallas! If the Cowboys cant stop the run a lot better than they did against the Falcons, then they're probably not going to win...

 

[TheFinisher]

they better win this game... 2-2 with NE, SEA, NYG on the horizon would not be a favorable position

 

[ShiningStar]

just because you want to slobber all over Brees does not make him the QB he was three years ago. How is that for truth?

yea, i dont want to throw this at you, but respecting anotehr QB isnt slobbering. but good luck with that.

 

[Cowboys606]

Pretty much the same Defense that held the Saints to 17 points. I know Romo was playing and we had Murray, but the boys still have a good chance at winning. Williams Torched them for two TDS.

 

[Idgit]

Of course this game against an 0-3 team that's lost it's last 6 games at home whose most important player is playing injured and who's two best linemen may be out is 'winnable.' What blows my mind is that the Saints opened up a 7 point favorite in this one early on. That's crazy to me.

I have a feeling this is the first game the rest of our team puts it all together for a full four quarters. The biggest concern I have is at QB, for all the obvious reasons.

 

[CrownCowboy]

I don't think the Saints are world beaters. They are 0-3 and have a ton of issues.

With that being said, I can't remember a time when we have been without so many starters across the board. With what we will be trotting out there, I don't expect to win. I really don't think it will be close to be honest with you.

I hope I'm wrong.

 

[dallasdave]

Statement game as in "We might be injured but we half reloaded."
As frusterating as it is to see Weedon check down all day, maybe it is best to stick with his underneath game. Leave the heroics to when Tony come back.

If that journeymans Randle can give us 80-plus yards, boy howdy, I am happy. Happier than a farmer with TWO subsidy checks. happier than a police department with a new supply of billy clubs. Happier than Jerra after he got his face lift. But I digress.

If Jerra can pull it all together, a solid, midrange passing game, 80-plus yards rushing with hep from the other journeymens and get our special teams to be consistent and get the defense to depend on its corners and blitz most of the day, I think we can emerge as 3-1.

Please endorse this post because I am feelink insecure.

I endorse this post because Dallas will beat the Saints . Time to paint Farmers Branch Cowboys colors and get party down !!!

 

[Rogerthat12]

We need to win this game, the Saints are probably the worst team we will face for awhile, you gotta beat these type of teams.

Brees makes it more difficult but we gotta find a way.
