Cowboys win the NFC

[tebowlives]

Someone really should have changed this thread title long ago.

No it should most certainly not. The specific year was luckily purposely left out so that the citizens can be reminded which team is the gem of the NFC. The citizens knowingly and willfully support this great franchise because of the proud tradition and Super Bowl Trophies on the mantle above the fireplace*.

(*granted there aren't many fireplaces in Dallas but we haven't won anything in ~25 years so it's a wash)

Vikings get inside the 30 and are moving the ball nicely. So they try a gimmick play that looses 5 yards? Desperation. I can smell it.
2nd and 15 and they have to settle for a FG which was made by a former Dallas Cowboy.

Dalvin Cook and the run game is what the Saints need to stop. Trick play coming? or did the Viking coach smarten up?

Thielen , when he is not fumbling or dropping passes is open , TE's are open but I say just keep giving it to Cook and Mattison.

saints pulling out all the stops to stop play on this Viking drive

 

[tebowlives]

Mattison is the tougher inside runner. Cooks no slouch

It was a smart move for the Saints management to drop that camera and slow the momentum. The ex Cowboy kicker comes through. 21 straight they said. He comes from good stock.

Two passes in a row into 2 deep coverage. Ouch

Vikings in with 106 yards rushing in first half in New Orleans . We need another half of it .

The officials like you. On that interception, the receiver was held. If he hadn't been, he could have broken it up.

But I have bad news for you. The team leading at the half has yet to win a game this postseason.

The Saints got screwed in the playoffs two seasons in a row. Wonder how the Saints are going to get screwed this time around.

Texans like their fires outside- barbecues/ grills.

Saints have only had two drives of more than four plays in the entire game so far. (eight plays, 26 yards which netted a field goal and one for six plays 15 yards and a punt- their TD drive was four plays- the rest have been three or less). Four minutes left in the third quarter and trailing 20-10.

Next possession? Three plays, two net yards, punt.

Diggs !

Vikings are just going to beat them.

Last time the Saints gave up a 100 yards to a back was the Redkins. Cook needs maybe 13 more

I would like to think we have more talent on the D line than those others .

Drew Brees has passed for 79 yards in the game at this point (end of third quarter)- 50 of that was on one play. Subtract that one out and he is 12 of 18 for 29 yards. Sorry, Brees did not throw the 50 yard pass. That was Taysom Hill so Brees is 13 of 19 for 79 yards- still a small total. They also have just 46 yards rushing.

They basically had one drive and the Viking fumble and the Vikings giving up the long kick return which resulted in a missed FG . The Vikings D line has had some success but Saints are still in it .

Hill threw the long one, not Brees

Thanks. Just tracking the game in the internet. Post corrected.
