This isn't a cupcake game by any stretch, a real talented team that was the most impressive in week 1, no matter their opponent. Saints now run a wco offense under Klint Kubiak that Carr is familiar with during his Raider days and has many footprints of a 49er scheme that our defense really has struggled with. You can expect a lot of misdirection, outside zone running to keep the Cowboys Defense off-balanced.
Offense
-Just like last week, cannot allow Cameron Jordan to wreck the game. Another difficult matchup for Tyler Guyton this week.
-Saints are another team that are difficult to run against, they have a real good MLB in Davis.
-Veteran secondary group where Dak has to be careful not to turnover the football. However, Lattimore may not play, their best corner.
-Expect to see a similar scheme as what they just faced with the Browns, heavy blitzing with man coverage which Dak usually does well against, but OL communication is the key.
-Defense
-3 headed rushing attack: Kamara will beat you with speed on the edge, Williams is their power back and expect to see Hill get some carries as well.
-Very talented receivers, Olive is that excellent route runner, where Saheed is a legitimate deep threat. Keep in mind Carson's biggest issue in camp was his lack of deep speed.
-Carr has hurt our defense in the past with his deep throws, remember that Thanksgiving game where he got many defensive pi's.
-Their line is extremely young, especially at the Tackle position, this is where the Cowboys should attack.
Special Teams
-Cowboys certainly have the advantage at the kicking position as they will for most of the yr, but Saheed is a very capable returner that the Cowboys can't allow to flip field position or even score on a return.
