well laugh if u want but i think a competetive game here could start a rivalry in the next few years..lets take a look at the ingredients.
1st and foremost Bill Parcells vs. Sean Payton. This one has gotten a lot of media coverage.
2nd- The two best quarterbacks in the nfc (assuming they both continue to play as theyve been playing.)
3rd- Lots of excowboys play for the saints.
4th- Geography. Yes thats right. Our hometowns are close enough that loads of our fans can make the trip for away games, and same goes for you guys obviously.
I hear what you are saying there Reg. However, for the rivalry to become intense, I think there would have to be several great regular and post-season games played for several years.
The Cowboys and Saints haven't had a history of hooking up when both teams are "post-season" good.
All of this can change though.
I have always wondered why these two teams are not in the same division. If they were, then that would guarantee Dallas one less chance at a cold game on the road (like New York last week).
Then again, myself included, many Cowboy fans love the divisional rivalries they currently have.
