We could be in for a really ugly game offensively vs Dallas

I'm not so sure about that. Having the big lead was nice, but many teams play with a sense of urgency lately. Seattle probably does not play the way they played late had they not been down so much. I seen the Bengals rally to almost beat the Bills last week. Washington scored 15 unanswered points and was moving the ball downfield again before turning it over on downs against Chicago.

Almost and if doesn't count pal. We won. Saints are over Seattle.

They are teeing up the Dallas game in less than 7 hours.

I think we see Deonte Harris get more involved in the offense today. End around’s, jet sweeps, screens, etc. A little trickery with the speedster to catch Dallas off guard.

Throwing it out there ... If Southlake aka Jordan H is active today, I think he makes one big play tonight.

I'm almost certain Dallas defensive game plan is to take away Kamara and MT so Jared Cook must step up tonight.

Gotta believe Sean Payton will be very creative tonight with his play calling.

I'm seeing this take a lot and I don't get why people get excited when a marginal player that just got placed on the 53 will all of a sudden make a huge play. The chance he sees the field is so minimal, which means his chance of doing anything much less a huge play is just not feasible.

I hope you're right and prove me wrong.

Better chance Harris gets involved in the offense tonight.

Neither Gleason or Harris see much of the field, very impactful plays.

So far, they have looked a bit like they've regressed from last year's unit.

They have issues with play action and stopping deep passes. That's something that could easily be exposed by the Packers, if Aaron Rodgers actually shows up next week and don't act like a baby.

I'm a glass half full kind of guy. I am not optimistic about this game but after the way the team played in all phases I'm certainly not pessimistic either. Some of ya'll need to take a Xanax or smoke a doobie.

The win last week has us in a better place than most of us anticipated. Let's remember that we are at the end of a brutal stretch of football and the schedule looks easier going forward with TB while we await Drew's return.

Tampa could be a problem within the division. Constant pressure on Goff, Vita is collapsing the pocket and creating turnovers.

Todd Bowles is calling a good game defensively.

Unfortunately for us Edelman, Thielan and Cooper Kupp's of the world are not available to us

. You have to trust and roll with the roster you have.
