I live for this Sunday!!!!! May the best team win. As our members know I live in Texas but my heart (or what's left of it) is in New Orleans.


GO SAINTS!!!!!!

The way I see it....the Saints can and will win this game if three major things occur. One, eliminate their the running game. Two, pressure Romo into bad passes. And three, NO TURNOVERS. I know that sounds like a tough task but its not impossible. These are the keys to victory. WE CAN DO IT!!! GO SAINTS!!!

Where is the Dallas forum? I would love to read what they are writing :)

Re: RE: Cowboy Fans Trashing Us
 

Couple of good points here which I'll rebut.

If the team with the momentum of an emotional win, which you suggest comes into play, then every team in the league should be W-L, W-L, etc. Success breeds momentum and confidence.
The Cowboys are on a 5-1 roll right now, and 6-0 if you consider Vanderjagt's gaff against Washington. Luckily he only cost us one game during that stretch.

I understand your receiving corp is banged up right now. No one likes to see that as we would all prefer to play with everyone's best players healthy. Peyton is smart enough to know what he needs to do to compensate for this. We've been fortunate this season to only lose one key player - Greg Ellis.

I'm looking forward to a serious chess match between student and teacher. May the best team on the day win and no one has further injuries. These are two team that have the potential for a serious stretch run. The Bears scare no one.

Drop by and take a look. It's got to be easier on the eyes than this! How the heck do you make the font size bigger when you post?

The one thing I think that will work in our favor this week, is the national spot light is all over the Cowboys right now, and we seem to be an after thought. Alot of people might see that as a bad thing. I see it as an advantage. Its seems like everytime the media has doubted our abilities this season, the team has showed up to prove them wrong. Dallas seems to be a lightning rod of positive, and negative attention every week.

As far as play goes, I think the match up begins in the trenches. Line against line. Whoever's side wins that battle, wins the game. At least that's my take.

i am in dallas as well and have been for 14 yrs.......
the true dallas fans are afraid of the saints, not the idiots that shoot their mouths off for the sake of being heard.......when you can trash talk and still respect the other team/fan, you are a true fan, period........we have enough to talk about without worrying who shoots their mouth off.......get in the stadium and start betting beers on who scores first and who gets the first sack and who whatever.............at the end of the game win or lose, you'll both be sheet faced. have a good time because simply put, now is the time to have a good time....smitty

To me this is a bigger rivalry game than the Falcons, i have relatives who are die hard Cowboy fans and i hear all this crap about Romo, T.O., Parcells, Julius Jones, and it all makes me sick, i cant stand the cow"girls" and never will. The Saints have the same record (not after this game we'll be 9-4 and they'll be 8-5 :P ) the Saints are lighting up the score board and i rarely see anything about the Saints everything is always Cowboy this Cowboy that, Reggie scores 4 amazing TD's and i tune to ESPN and have see Gramaticas field goal over and over??? I just hope the Saints crush this team so that the ESPN guys can have fun all week talking about how Our Saints crushed the Cowgirls

Jeebs,

Excellent analysis! #1 just got tougher with Thomas heading off the field for the next 4 games.

More specifically for #2 we need to keep Romo in the pocket. He's most dangerous when he scrambles out of the pocket and get an open look downfield. We'll need to play him like we played the Vicks the first game. Contain the pocket, then squeeze it up the middle.

#3 is the Saints key. The team is 5-0 when they don't turn the ball over. It isn't rocket science
in theory. But it all comes down to execution.

Agreed on all points!

I've been listening to the NFL channel on Sirius Satelite Radio all day and all the pundits and prognosticators are giving us our props and the boys theirs. They think this will be a serious test for both teams. The winner will be in the drivers seat for the 2nd seed. On top of that we are the one team, left on their schedule, that has the cowboy fans worried the most. I do believe we can win this game as long as we don't turn the ball over and continue to make plays on both sides of the ball. IMHO the boys are overrated and I think they will have a hard time putting up 20 points against us, while I think we should score in the high 20's at the very least. I look for Bree's and company to have a big day in Big "D" and for the cowboy fans to be crying in their beer late Sunday nite. :crowd:
