Neither NO nor GB are likely to be easy, although GB appears to have a better balance of offense and defense this year. Will New Orleans' offense still be elite with Bridgewater at the helm? That remains to be seen, although, I seriously doubt it will compare to what it was with Drew Brees. Personally, I'm inclined to be more concerned with playing GB than NO, although they both present a challenge.

In your opinion which game will give us the most trouble, the Saints in New Orleans or the Packers in Dallas? I'm thinking the Saints game will be the tougher match up even without Brees...........

Packers. I dont see the Saints game as that tough. Doesnt mean we cant lose.

Packers. Because the saints don't have Brees. If they have Brees then the Saints by a mile

For me this is a real test of how good are we. I'm more concerned that our Defense isn't that good. We win both of these games, I'll feel a lot better about our chances this year. The first 3 games only proved that we did what was expected against bad teams.

Not me. Bridgewater isn't Aaron Rogers.

Packers fan here and I can tell you most are putting the Dallas game down as a L. The defense is legit but they cant find their way on offense. And while Rodgers has his moments, I do believe the Barr hit from a couple of years ago has affected him. He just isnt the same consistently. He skips passes, overthrows some, and just does not consistenly have the accuracy of a few years ago. The 1st half against the Vikings he was vintage Rodgers. But as soon as something goes wrong, ie, a penalty, a dropped 3rd down pass, fumble etc, it seems they cant pull themselve out of the funk. It is still early in the season and most dont think the offense will be clicking until later in the season. Dallas will win this one by 6 or 7 pts. Packers have also had the benefit of playing three staight home games in a row and even with that they are struggling offensively. Playing at Dallas after 3 straight home games will be tough for any team especially the Packers who are struggling on offense. ( I do have the right to change my mind tho after Thursdays game against the Eagles)

The saints are a better team. The only way GB beats us is with Rodgers making some crazy plays. And if you’ve been paying attention he looks like he’s slowed down.

Not with Bridgewater throwing less than 200 yards a game.

both will be equally as tough. Wont be any in between. We either win both games, or we drop 2 in a row..THEN the mockingbird pundits and fans will chime in. If we are not mentally ready, we wont win either. Can't start sluggish,must start fast like fast break basketball.

Aaron Rogers is a known Cowboys killer.

Both will be tough games, Bridgewater had a warm up game, and did pretty good.
Kamara was very good and they beat Seattle in Seattle!

GB has a better defense this year, so Rodgers does not have to outscore teams.

They will be equally difficult. The Saints have a distinct advantage playing in their own dome on a night game. On the other hand, Aaron Rodgers loves to play at AT&T stadium. That's where he won his Super Bowl and where he last beat us in the playoffs. I'll be happy if the Cowboys split these games.
