2018 NFL Week #13 Gameday Thread: New Orleans Saints (10-1) @ Dallas Cowboys (6-5)

The Saints have us right where they want us. We tank in the 3rd period and the Saints are right back in this. The fall is greater than the rise buddy. This one can hurt bad.

Pretty sure they'd rather be up 21-0 or something than down 13-0

But I get what you are saying. We've seen this over the years. Lets see if we can finish someone off, especially a really important game like this one.

Would have been awesome to close out that drive with 7, but shit we started on our own 2 after a great GL stand.

It was still a great drive.

It wasn't a great drive. It's a drive you didn't expect because of the QB. A great drive ends with 7.

 

[dbair1967]

Rod Smith looks like he's running in mud this year.

Yeah not the same player. He also does too much side to side and toe dancing crap, which he never used to do.

He's a big, powerful kid with some decent speed. he should be hitting the hole (whatever is there) as quick as possible.

I mean, Dak has made some good throws. But he's fucked the dog too. We should have more points.

OK

 

[Scot]

He’s trying to be like Dak and take his time to find the hole and wait for the blocks to develop

He just doesn’t have the skill to be able to do it

He needs to put his head down and barrel forward

 

[dbair1967]

If you would have told me that we would blank the Saints in the first half I would have called you a nutter.

You and me both. Really impressive half.

But its only HALF. Lets see if the team can finish a game.

We need a pure speed complement to Zeke. Someone like Dunbar (but not Dunbar). Also, Zeke leaves the field a lot, esp on 3rd down. I worry about his conditioning.

 

[Scot]

I saw that earlier too. He went out after one play and was sucking on the oxygen mask. He shouldn’t have been out of breath that early in the game

 

[Scot]

I feel a huge play coming from the Saints here real soon

 

[Scot]

Here is the worst possible scenario

We win tonight

Garrett remains the head coach next season

That's a possibility. If Dallas wins tonight a 10-6 season is very likely.

 

[Ragnar]

The Saints are blitzing and Prescott still can't find a guy?

The Cowboys are usually terrible the last two games of a given season regardless of what went on before then.

 

[Scot]

LVE is one bad motherfucker!

The hole in coverage is almost always where the blitzer came from, thats basic high school football.

 

[Dodger12]

Gregory. You dumb fucking idiot. You can't trust these guys. You just can't. And we end up paying for it.

 

[theoneandonly]

bad penalty

 

[Scot]

Gregory just cost us a TD and very likely the game

 

[theoneandonly]

Brown tripped over his own feet.
