Well, the CBoys made that look pretty easy... but maybe a little too easy...
sometimes the big plays aren’t always a blessing when you have to give the ball right back to an explosive offense…
"So tell me what happened."
"Well, the last thing I remember is seeing this flash of Blue and Orange and the #22... then everything just went black..."
The saints have really settled for short stuff for their first few plays, though.
It’s just a matter of time.
If Taylor Swift were to try and tackle me, I'd let her.

This start...
to be expected a bit – Cowboys HAVE to win, Saints WANT to win. Big difference early….Talent will eventually take over.

They better get it in gear in the next few drives. This game could be out of reach by the time the Saints get it going with the way the 'Boys offense is moving.

I see one of two things happening right now...
New Orleans is either making Tony Romo look really really good, or they are just bending their plan to see what Dallas is going to be bringing. I don’t know what is happening quite yet.
John Clayton is the head Dean at Fail University (known as F.U. in short)
Formerly known as Calijoefornia
Or their runningbacks.
The cowboys have great balance, right now. I don’t think the saints have really played an opponent with such balance. Not that I can remember, anyways.

The Cowboys have a better offense that most people realize...
They had the most yards after 12 games than any other Cowboys team… they just aren’t scoring at the same rate. Kind of like last years broncos team…
"So tell me what happened."
"Well, the last thing I remember is seeing this flash of Blue and Orange and the #22... then everything just went black..."
And suddenly the SuperDome is very quiet...

I never could understand why they didn’t try and come up with something original instead of spinning off the Who Dey chant from the bengals.

Another punt for the saints. Golly.
I bet their punter is gased already. He’s not used to this much work with the saints offense.

That is the difference in this game.

Now, I'm no cowboys fan by any stretch
but I really hate the MSM bashing him for Dallas’ crap playing in December. He’s been one of the few bright spots on the Cowboys roster this month. Their defense, up until now, has been the bigger problem. In my opinion, of course.

regarding Tony Romo of course. haha

haha, I figured.
I think the “choker” tag was slapped on him when he dropped the ball in Seattle as the holder. Ever since then, whenever he loses a december game, the MSM adds on, saying that he chokes in the big games late in the season.
Really, the only way for him to get rid of that perception is to win some games late in the season and win some playoff games.

I agree. However, if you are a CB in the NFL, you have to know that you can't breathe on an "Americas Team" reciever.
You will be called for a penalty and it will kill your team.

The saints came out with two straight three and outs and the cowboys scored on their first two drives using great balance.
The cowboys offense has, since, allowed 3 sacks and really struggled for the most part against the saints defense. The Saints offense on the other hand, had a nice drive on their last time out but settled for a field goal.

The cowboys really impressed me, just now.
1st and 19 turns into 2nd and 2, then 3rd and 1. Then Barber pounds it up the middle for a first down. I wish we could do that more often.

It's hard to root against the Saints (or for the Cowboys), but I'm glad this undefeated talk is over.
I remember Brees saying that they would “definitely” go for undefeated, and it really rubbed me the wrong way. Your goal is the Super Bowl, not some superfluous streak. Now they can focus on the right thing.
