LOL!
I guess Romo was never suppose to have a bad day.
What the Saints did:
1. They settled the game down when we jumped out 7 to 0.
2. They jumped ahead of us.
3. They kept the ball and utilized all of their weapons and their role players.
4. Defensively, they blanketed our receivers. I was amazed at how much lack of separation TO got on many pass plays.
5. They rushed their ends up field, keeping Romo in the pocket.
6. They bull rushed up the middle not allow Romo to have time to step up in the pocket.
There is not another team in the NFC that will beat us like the Saints because ...
1. They don't have the quarterback as patient and as smart as Brees and
2. They don't have the weapons that New Orleans does.
The Cowboys were worried about Bush, which allowed Mike Karney to destroy them with three TDs.
Then when we made DeMarcus Ware a pass rusher, Reggie Bush snuck behind him, caught the ball and was off to the races. Not too many defenders are going to catch/match Reggie Bush in the open.
The key to beating New Orleans is to jump out in front of them and force them to dink and dunk down the field. The only problem with the Cowboys' strategy is we didn't capitalize on our lead by getting up by 7.
We abandoned our strategy pretty early.
It will be interesting to see how we play the Saints again, if we play them again in the playoffs.
