THURSDAY NIGHT (NOVEMBER 29,2018)

THE MATCH UP

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (10-1) AT DALLAS COWBOYS (6-5)

I’ve been reading some experts think tonight’s game is going to be a Cowboy upset. Cowboys are playing better.  Cowboys are rested from playing last Thursday on Thanksgiving. Amari Cooper is coming off a great game. Ezekiel Elliot is running the ball better. The quarterback has a pulse all of a sudden. The defense has played well. They have even won on the road. Is this the complete recipe to beat the Saints in a prime time game on Thursday night?

Let me wake up these experts that are dreaming and drinking the Cowboy kool-aid. They beat the Redskins’ back up quarterback on Thanksgiving. I was not impressed that it was a dominating performance by America’s team. Then they just edge the Falcons who suddenly are playing horrible. Then they beat their archrival, the Eagles, by a touchdown. What happened against the Titans at home on Monday night a few weeks back? Plus the Cowboys play in the worst division in football.

The Saints are well rested as they played last Thursday as well. The Saints took out the Falcons with ease. They destroyed the Eagles and beat them like they owed the Saints’ players money. They have won ten straight. Brees is a hall of fame quarterback and has a number of weapons to throw to. Many of them not even household names.  They have a head coach that is a mastermind, not like the one on the Dallas side line who gets questioned by his boss through the media. The running game, they have a two headed monster. Plus their defense has played well.

It’s a no-brainer in this contest. Have to go with WHODAT!!! I can truly say I have not been bitten by a zombie today. However I have not stayed in a Holiday Inn Express EVER. If it makes you feel better I have not arrived home in the back of a turnip truck either.  However I can say that I fainted on an altar when I was younger serving as an altar boy. No worries. I’m feeling much better. My head took most of the blunt hit against the marble.

OUR WINNER: SAINTS
