On to the Cowboys
 
Offensive is looking pretty good this year. Defense blows but so does ours. Looks like this game is going to come down to which teams defense sucks the worst. Will be a good test. If we can win against a good offense on the road that will be a good confidence builder.
Oh and on another note, I'm reeeeaaaly not looking forward to playing the Bengals.

I honestly feel like this win against Minnesota is what will right the ship for us. I believe we'll take away Dez Bryant and Demarco Murray from the Cowboys, and their defense won't be able to stop us what so ever. They won't be able to keep up in a shoot out, and we'll run away with the game. They'll make push late in the game, but never being a true threat.

This game scares me more than a game against the Cowboys normally would. That team can light up the scoreboard. Good test for our defense I suppose, but we really need the secondary to get their crap together.

We need to get the passrush back on track. Put pressure on Romo an watch him fold like a chair.

Yeah, the pass rush -- remember when we had one? It felt nice. Today, there were flourishes.

Galette sure came to play, Walker on occasion to. I still haven't seen anything out of either Jordan or Hicks. Those guys need to step it up.

Re: On to the Cowboys
 
The Cowboys seem to have the same offense every year, regardless of personnel. They have the same relative output and when we play them people predict a shootout. But that's only happened once that I can remember. We blow them out again and again, and the reason is because while they put up some yards on us, Romo is one of those guys that gets a little too comfortable in the pocket and it allows even poor pass rushing teams to get to him and that's where you have all the turnovers. And defensively, they absolutely have no answer for us.

That being said, as long as we take care of the ball the usual traits should take over in this game as well. I expected a better offensive showing today, by far, but we own the crap out of the Cowgirls. This would figure to be the game to get it going if it's ever going to happen.

Jordan had that one great play when he beat his guy to the inside for the sack. But whe need to see more production from him. Hicks too.

The only time we've beat the cowboys easily was last year

2012 matchup went to overtime where colston fumbled but luckily was recovered by Graham
2010 Malcolm Jenkins forces fumble with 2 mins left to go and the cowboys leading, we win 31-27
They beat us in a shootout in 2009 for our first loss

Believe me, it will be a close game and I hate close games

Hate to say it but we just dont look like we are playing with passion this year. I dont what the deal is. It was pretty obvious that after Brees got slammed, the team finally woke up.

The offensive line didn't even stand up for Brees after he got slammed until he got up and went after the defender

Ref was looking directly at it and threw the flag before brees was even on the ground, akiem Hicks did the same thing to Andrew luck and got called straight away.

3 of 8 possessions resulting in a score against a team that lesser offenses torched.

The defense looked like a big 10 unit - can shut down a Kent State but unable to compete with any SEC team.

For me, this game gave no indication that any ship was righted. We have played 3 teams projected to have losing records this season and about to play a 4th. Lose to the Cowgirls and it's likely over. 1-4 (Bucs are not as bad as Atlanta made them look) means that the 4th division of the Latvian soccer leagues will be more compelling.

What happened to Louisiana Football?

When have projections ever come true?
The eagles were supposed to go undefeated with their dream team - didn't happen
The broncos were projected to outscore Seattle in the Superbowl - didn't happen

Just remember that football is any given Sunday

Our offense had kind of an off day, but did enough to win the game, credit the D for not allowing a TD all game

Here's an example - 2011 we beat the colts without manning 62-7, the following week we lose to the rams 28-14
We still won the NFC south that year and had probably the best offense in NFL history

The offense has put up decent numbers for 2 weeks straight, they had kind of an off day yesterday but that's normal, it will get sorted.

I sure hope they don't think the Cowboys will be an easy win

Re: On to the Cowboys
 
Definitely a game of who has the worse defense. If we can get ANY pressure on Romo, that should be enough to turn it in our favor.

yee haw here we go.
100 pts combine score is not out of the question.
+150? maybe?
+200? :rolleyes:
lmao let the shot out begin :broccoli:

start all offensive players in this game for both teams in your fantasy football leagues.

Mardigras9 09-22-2014 10:54 AM
Re: On to the Cowboys
 
Yes the lack of dominance by the offense at home did not go un-noticed. Let's just hope it was an off game. They came out on fire and then just stalled.

Me either. I keep seeing people say that our defense improved, but we were playing against a rookie QB AT HOME so yea we had better looked better. I think if Cassel had stayed in we would be 0-3 right now. How many plays did you see where a receiver dropped the ball when our guys had blown coverage. Thank god the guy couldn't throw because if he could at least two of those incomplete passes would be TDs.

Hopefully it doesn't take Drew getting suplexed again for the team to WAKE UP. We're good in primetime and we seem to always show up to play at Dallas.

Re: On to the Cowboys
 
2-2 sounds alot better to me than 1-3. I would like to see us beat them but if not I 'm not freakin' just yet. Games 5-6 will matter, if they dig a hole, well they will have to dig out of it, if not theres big problems that will need to be adressed.I'm riding this ship out, the sea's may get a little scary!!

Re: On to the Cowboys
 
The Vikings had a respectable defense and they made good adjustments to our early attacks. The Cowboys will be a good test for us.

TODAYS DEFENSES ISNT DESIGN TO WIN GAMES! if you dont believe me ask the denver fans. yesterday seattle (no. 1defense) held denver at bay for pretty much the entire game however it came down to a 59sec drive and a two score situation for denver to go into ot. now what does that has to do with anything you asked?, well let me tell you if denver scores prior till that situation they wouldnt have to pull out a miracle to even go into ot. their defense played too good for them to have to score with 59 sec. left. now the flip side to my arguement is this. if you have an opportunity to win the game on offense please do so what i mean by that well let's go back to the seattly and denver game. in ot seattle got the ball first with the understanding if we score a t.d. game over period there's no need to put our no.1 defense back out on the field (at home) to have them stop peyton manning and the crew lets end it now and what do seattle do, exactly what i always say win the freaking game on offense move the ball score game over period. now no one is talking about the near miracle peyton almost came up with they're only saying seattle won in ot.
Offense was not stagnant for first 2 weeks of the season, we struggled yesterday slightly but it happens from time to time

Seriously though, most people don't read your posts if you keep putting caps lock and going on rants, just saying...

Our recievers has had 2 many drops, our run game is good, Brees has been a little spotty at times, overall if they clean a few things up and keep a balanced attack, its all good, although at times our O-line's playlooks a little shaky at key moments, fatigued looking to me.

Losing Goodwin didn't help. Its obvious Lelito is not ready to start. Not a good sign when on his first play he botches a snap.

Yea a little punctuation would be nice every not and again i cantstand it when people do this it just aggraivts me to know end and I want to grab the computer and tell them something but sometime i way to nice and did you see the way drew threw that ball and it was caught butshold have been inbounds the whole time so he make fail big there its not like its real big guys pressuring but the seem to get to ball a lot sometimes and brees has to run around worried about sac I didn't see that much last year instead I think line use some work what you thing?

That looked every bit as much Drew's fault as Lelito's fault.

It hit Drew right in his hands.

I don't think Lelito did that bad.

And that fumble was on Drew. It wasn't right into his gut but it was easily catchable.

Drew took sole responsibility for it after the game, he said the snap was a little high but it still went straight through his hands and he should have caught it

Lelito obviously had some jitters coming into the game, they will sort it out

That's what I thought. Granted I was streaming the game and the quality was terrible...but sure looked like it was a snap he should have handled...

Those are "ghost posts". Lol

Offensively we just need to get moving quick and sustain our drives. The defense needs more pass rush and to create turnovers. I'm baffled by our 1 turnover this year. 1?! 1 freakin turnover?!!!!

It's so ridiculous that I started laughing when I thought about it.
