I've gone back and forth how this game is gonna go.

On one hand it's Sunday night and that almost always means Payton shows out on offense in front of a national audience. Plus the revenge factor from last year's debacle on offense.

Add in the fact the Cowboys have not been tested and in a close game late.

All of that points to a Saints win.

But ultimately I think the Cowboys limit Kamara and MT and there isn't sufficient support outside of those 2 for Bridgewater to have enough success to help us win this game.
You dont pay any attention to the present season? Their starting defense is 5 players different than when we played them last year.

Saquon Barkley (Rookie) - 120 yards rushing against Dallas
Giants 405 passing yards against Dallas
Redskins 3 Receiving TDs against Dallas


Saints 24 / Dallas 16

You just quoted garbage time stats.

Not sure if you realized that.

Anyway, I got us holding them to a more than respectable 20 points. You have them scoring 16. So not sure what your gripe is about that part of the prediction. I'm simply saying we don't have enough weapons outside Thomas and Kamara to get the job done tonight.

Did you watch Dallas last week against the tanking Dolphins? They struggled all through the first half and only late in the 3rd quarter did they finally manage to stop screwing around and throttle a horrible tanking team. They were at home too, making that worse.

We held them to 10 points tonight and it was possible cause they didn't look all that great against one of the worst teams in the league last week.

You do not know what 'garbage time' is do you? 'Garbage time' doesn't happen with a 7 point differential, it doesn't happen for an entire 4th quarter.

Your mental capacity is limited and you're not making any sense.

Agreed. We do not function on similar intellectual planes. Given that, humor me please; shift gears away from ad hominem and towards football.

Garbage time assumes one team is padding stats for the sake of stats in no hope of changing the outcome of the game.

That doesn't happen with a single digit differential which is where the majority of the Dallas Redskins game was.

New York had 321 yards of offense in the first three quarters. Did they give up before the first quarter? No.. not garbage time. If you read the gamebooks you will see that only 13 of Barkley's 120 yards, and 80 of Manning's 306 passing yards came in the 4th Qtr.

So... none of the stats I stated were garbage stats.
