Alright guys... There's enough football to talk about without getting personal.

Cowboys just absolutely whipped the Saints for 3 quarters. I am glad the Saints at least made it competitive at the end by dominating the 4th. I just hope this loss will make the Saints pull their heads out of their asses and quit worrying about history and undefeated etc. Get their crap together and beat the Bucs and hope the Vikes lose because I do not like us in Carolina, we just have trouble winning there.
HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I said for weeks the Cowboys would be the Saints and was hoping the Saints were 13-0 when they played......it all worked out - and the best team won.
One thing I do know, and this was my worry about the saints when they had Carney, is that the Boys need to get another kicker. Folk's head is gone, and playoff games are won by FGs. He has been out and out terrible, and that miss at the end was just horrid. Why are FG kickers so bad this year? Some guys that had actually been decent (suisham and folk) have been terrible this year.
Yeh, I wouldnt think so. A high school kid makes that kick. Carney's last game with the Saints was bad (almost missed an extra point and shanked a 35 yarder). Everybody blows on kickers and doesnt want them in the hall, but this year is proving the importance of kickers. You just cant have missed like that in crucial games. I thought for sure the Saints were going to drive and tie the game after that, but DeMarcus Ware single-handedly took over the game, and Payton was too pigheaded to chip him or give Bushrod some help that he desperately needed.
As far as I'm concerned, both kicker Nick Folk and WR Roy Williams can take a bus back to Dallas. Williams dropped ANOTHER perfect pass on a key 3rd down slant in the 4th qtr. If he makes that easy catch, that drive continues and the Saints are done early.
As for Folk.....I seriously wouldn't let him anywhere near my team charter for the trip home. If you can't kick a FG that's only 5 yds further back than an extra point, then you've got no future in this league. BYE BYE!

Yeh, that frustrates me about Payton at times, and he has been much better with it this year. He can be very hardheaded with his playcalling and his matchups. Bushrod needed a TE chip/RB help, but he refused to get it to him because we "had" to get 5 WRs in the route. I just dont understand it.
