Philly in Philly was the toughest game left on our schedule.

And yeah I know we're playing the saints.

We just beat our kryptonite. Philly's pass rush, Philly's big play ability, IN philly...

The Saints might have a little bit more fire power on offense, but they're garbage on defense, as they have shown the last couple weeks.

Green Bay I am not at all afraid of.

New York and Washington?

Oakland?

Philly at home?

I'm forgetting somebody, but they can't be all that great.

New Orleans will be interesting...

That one scares me to death. They are so damn explosive.

Are you serious? I doubt New Orleans leaves that hole in their defense wide open for the rest of the year.

New Orleans scares me, greatly. EVERY NFC East opponent scares me, Washington included.

In this league you still gotta play week to week.

Especially if your Dallas.

New orleans is the best team in football. Outside of that game, though, we are playing better than everyone else on our schedule

New Olreans has struggled two weeks in a row.

The hole in their defense comes from their lack of ability. No one runs on them because they're forced to pass from behind, and turn the ball over.

Our very concept of play will be New Orlean's krpytonite if we can get our running game flourishing.

By the time we play NO we may already have a playoff berth. By no means do I think it's an excuse to let off at the end of the season, I'm just saying that by the time we play them it might not be a big of game as you think.

On a side note, NO has issues with their RUN D so I expect alot of rushes from all three backs in that game.

The saints are like the old patriots. The way to beat them is to apply pressure with your front 5-6 lineman. Thats the only way to stop that offense.
Exactly what the giants did to patriots.

I'm much more concerned playing a great offense (N.O.) than I am playing a good defense.

also it's very likely that by the time december 18th rolls around, there's a chance that New Orleans could still be undefeated which would apply serious amount of pressure off of our backs and onto theirs before the first play is even snapped.

That New Orleans game has been circled on my calender since July, and as we get closer to it, the circle is still there, but it's looking more and more reasonable for the Cowboys to be within that game.

The game that scares me more so than that one, is the San Diego game. For some reason, I keep getting flashbacks of the Ravens game from last year. I really hope we play well during that game.

The Chargers lack explosivity an all aspects of the game. Vincent Jackson won't control this game just as DeSean Jackson didn't.

Yeah but we played the best big play Offense in football tonight @ their house and shut that mess down.

NO is not as scary as they were 2 weeks ago but I do not think it will be easy at all. Winning this game tonight means that if we take care of business against teams we should beat, that one lonely NO game will not mean a thing. What it will be is a good measurement of the team against a likely playoff oppenent should they make it that far.

As some have already mentioned, New Orleans is the best team in the NFL right now. However, they have already peaked. Their team as a whole will not be getting any better.

Their offense cannot get any better. Gregg Williams has pulled every ounce of talent out of that defense. Their special teams are good, but not outstanding.

Newsflash: Dallas is STILL improving in all areas. The Cowboys have not hit their ceiling yet. It's downright scary when you sit down and think about what this team could be capable of doing should it reach it's true potential.

Green Bay scares me next week. Let's not have a letdown....get to Rodgers early and often and wear them out.

You mean, do just like every other team has done against them already, right?

You don't have to be scared of anyone, but there are a lot of tough games left on the schedule. In Green Bay at Lambeau against a desperate Packers team is where I would start focusing.

we are well on our way, but i'm not ready to call us world beaters. we've seen this movie before, have we not? just keep playing solid football, and everything will work itself out.

new orleans should scare you, btw. not to mention divisional road games in december like at new york giants.

i'm glad we're stock piling wins right now. we may need them.
