The Saints will bring a 10-game winning streak into Dallas on Thursday night and one might think that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones would prefer a less imposing opponent as the race for the NFC East ti...

Very well put, no pressure boys!!

 

[StarBoyz83]

This is our superbowl because we cant make it to superbowls.

 

[links18]

Why not just treat every play of the year like Super Bowl plays and then maybe we can make it to an actual Super Bowl?

 

[TheDuke]

Wouldn’t one have to know what a ‘super bowl play’ is actually like to treat another one as such?

Seems like the best we could do is ‘treat it like a one and done playoff game’

 

[DeaconMoss]

I hope they go into the game loose and relaxed. Play fast on Defense. Ur not going to sack Breezy and he doesn't throw many picks, so just pressure and attempt to confuse. Trust the keys. Stop the run. Believe it or not, the Saints are a running team. On Offense just do what you do, dink, dunk, dive, scramble, pound and hit the occasional big play. Control TOP and stick with what you do. Keep Breezy on the sideline and the scoring low and they have a chance.

A greater sense of focus and urgency is needed to compete at the highest level in the NFL... who knew... maybe this is the best approach when putting together a staff and starting week one in the NFL. The things we endure for the right to be a Cowboys fan

Let's Go Big D

 

[Broges74]

We can slow their O. We have the defense that is a good matchup with them if Jones follows Thomas all over the field. Brees is not going to have all day in the pocket and Kamara is going to get personal with JSmith and the rookie wonder LVE.

Not a bad idea, actually . . . now, all they have to do is make it happen.

Even if they do, will it be enough? I suspect we're about to find out!

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

Jerrah is already acknowledging this game as the super-bowl, because thats the best Garrett can offer.

 

[CF74]

Everybody plays us like it’s a Super Bowl, now lets do it back...

 

[catiii]

Too bad this sense of urgency and prep wasn't there in pre-season or the first games. Lack of preparation then by not playing 1st teamers, vet days off, etc and losing to scrub teams is what put us in this position now. Look to your own HC lizard face.

 

[JayFord]

The day you treat regular season games like a superbowl is the day you admit your team sucks

Approach it for what it is and stop talking, everytime dallas hypes themselves up they get blown out

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

Jerrah wants this game to be the superbowl game for this team !

How low a bar can we have ?! lmao .

 

[DandyDon52]

Jerrah is already acknowledging this game as the super-bowl, because thats the best Garrett can offer.

Well that and it shows he really thinks they can win, and he really wants them to win.
Jerry and his boy are riding high ego wise, since the Amari trade looks good right now.
They think they are football guru's now lol.

If they beat the saints, JG gets a 50 year extension at 10 mil a year with 50 mil Guaranteed.
Dak gets big extension too.

So do we root for them to win or lose?? lol

 

[Stash]

How about you talk about your coaches coaching like it's the Super Bowl? Once again, it's all about the players and he gives his hand-picked coach-in-training a pass.

Coaching matters Mr. Davis Jones!

Given that we're gonna play them in a few days, something tells me that we're almost certainly going to find out.

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

Payton vs. Garret = 4 to 1 .

Hmm.. i wonder who has 4 losses and only 1 win .

Considering he's brought 3 rings to Dallas, I'd say Jerry knows what one is. I understand your frustration, though. I miss the days where teams were afraid to play us.

 

[AsylumGuido]

The Cowboys (if following instructions from Jerry) will not be the only team treating every play like the Super Bowl. Believe me, Payton remembers what happened in 2009 and what happened last year against the Vikings. This Saints team will not take the foot off the gas, or the throat, on either side of the ball each and every play. I feel it will take the Cowboys' best across the board to beat the Saints Thursday and it still may not be enough.
