Saints Evacuate to Dallas to Practice at Cowboys' Stadium amid Hurricane Ida.

Report: Saints Evacuate to Dallas to Practice at Cowboys' Stadium amid Hurricane Ida.
The New Orleans Saints will head to Dallas on Saturday in advance of Hurricane Ida, which is expected to make landfall as a Category 4 hurricane on the Louisiana coast Sunday afternoon.

Per Katherine Terrell of The Athletic, the Saints will practice at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the home of the Dallas Cowboys. The plan is for the team to stay in town through Wednesday.

A Category 4 hurricane means sustained winds of 130-156 mph. All Louisiana coastal parishes are under a hurricane warning, and that also includes Orleans Parish, home of the Caesars Superdome. The same goes for Jefferson Parish, where the team's training facility is located.

Hope we don’t have to play week one there as well.

So they could have played the preseason game there sans fans?

I seriously doubt the logistics of both teams and the stadium would have allowed that. Besides, a preseason game is not that important beyond a moneymaker for the ownership.

I was just thinking, wonder what the bill's gonna look like for using Jerry's house. Jerry's Tuna Clipper needs a new wax job..

Payton will be coaching in Dallas next year anyway. Might as well familiarize himself with the place.

Silly talk.

Jerry, Stephen and Sean would not co exist in Dallas. Have you watched any of this season’s Hard Knocks episodes?

Sean has power and control in New Orleans. Why would he leave that to coach Dallas ? It ain’t happening Captain.

I agree that Dallas Ship has sailed for Coach Payton. There is no one at the end of the hall that's telling Sean what he can or cannot do. However it is the NFL and you never know really.

Not really. Just another way off prediction by the Dude. He has at least one before every season. Never come through, but there they are.
