Do we really want Dallas?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Philly is ranked number 30th overall in pass defense. That would be a great game to rack up a 50 burger and go into the next round with the swagger we would have after torching 2 teams back to back. ...

Do we really want Dallas?

Philly is ranked number 30th overall in pass defense. That would be a great game to rack up a 50 burger and go into the next round with the swagger we would have after torching 2 teams back to back. McCoy is scarey and I would definitely like to have Vaccarro for that game but our run defense has been pretty damn good.

I know we already beat Dallas and their defense sucks too but something about backup QBs and this team scares me. Either way I see us coming out with a win next week and then who knows what could happen. The only team that scares me in the playoffs is Seattle. I know we are a better team than Carolina and if we go there the climate is usually very similar to what we have here but I really think they will be one and done no matter who they play.
Im also kind of glad that Arizona didnt make it. They really got screwed and I think they are one of the better teams in the NFC.

Re: Do we really want Dallas?

I'm pretty sure we aren't allowed to pick who we "want" anymore -- I think it is whoever wins the game, is the one that we travel to and play against....Although Payton does sorta have Dallas' number. There is a lot of personal history and personal pride there. But honestly most of the people that Payton originally beat silly in Dallas by outcoaching them, "what would Joe Blow do in this situation?" "I know they run the such-and-such defense against this formation, and stuff like that -- not too many of those people are still there anymore, that was a looooong time ago now, so I don't think it's anything much for him, other than an emotional/personal advantage...

IF it's just Payton and the emotional edge, I'd take Payton versus Dallas every single time. But the real world may be different.

Neither team scares me. Playing in five degrees, high winds and snow scares me

Re: Do we really want Dallas?

If they get the Saints, Dallas will retract that roof off the stadium all week long, tell their high rollers to wear fur coats, and they'll hang out a "WELCOME SAINTS, GAME TIME TEMPERATURE IN DALLAS 38 DEGREES" banner and say come on in, be our guest! It's not a dome, it's a retractable roof. The Eagles, I'd say keep it closed, but only a fool would leave it closed when the Saints come to town.
