2021 Season | Week 13 | Gameday Chatter Thread | Cowboys @ Saints | 12/2/21

booze, pimp slapped by a noob.

I like it.

Not really. He is a homeristic clown.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

theyre pretty damn good against the run. Lead the league at 3.4 ypc. Number 3 in total rush yards.

Eh I thought the last few games the Saints got run all over. I stand corrected.

In fairness the Saints have a good defense and beat the Bucs.

 

[UncleMilti]

You shut up, bitch!

I know your allergies struggle with happy thoughts, but your gonna just have to suck it up. We won an ugly road game, lead the division by 3 games, have 11 days to refresh and THE FUCKING CALVARY is coming.

Snort Flonase. Buckle up.

What calvary….Hill and Gregory? They don’t play offense.

 

[data]

OVER/UNDER

• Saints score 15 points OVER
• Ezekiel Elliott rushing yards 90 UNDER
• Zeuerlein 1 missed FGs/XPs UNDER
• Cowboys attempt 2 fourth downs/2pointers UNDER
• Micah Parsons 1.5 sacks UNDER

Winner is...

Under all the way

For you guys calling for more Pollard, outside of his 58 yard run, he was 6 carries for 13 yards, which is atrocious and worse than what Zeke was giving us. That's not the answer.

I mean that run was the difference in the game, so sort of important. But neither guy is consistently doing shit on the ground. In that situation I'll take the occasional home fun over the guy with an occasional 5 yard run.

But I really don't think Zeke is healthy. He looks slow and hurt.

Saints have a damn good D and if lobster lifter was playing it would have been a toss up tonight imo

 

[Genghis Khan]

Why do you want to diminish or zero out Pollard's 58 yard run? That won the game, and no-way-in-hell Zeke makes that play.

It's a splash-play league. Pollard can give you those. Zeke can't.

Because consistent yards are waaaaaay more important than that one splash play in a game.

Important play no doubt and a fantastic run, but if you plan on getting plays like that on a regular basis, you're going to lose. A lot.

The point is, neither running back was good in this game, so if anyone thinks Zeke is the issue, it's bigger than that.

Taysom Hill missed so many throws, hell, game would've been a tossup if Archie Manning was playing

 

[UncleMilti]

Gawwddamn 2/13 on 3rd down. That’s a recipe for disaster

Yeah he hits more passes but he definitely takes way more sacks and probably also throws some picks. I mean Hill did pretty well with his legs and you lose all that with Eating a Dub in there.

Yep, it was really bad on third down which is why the offense felt so bad. Just not sure what happened to our third down plays. They look awful now.

 

[Genghis Khan]

its a damn good thing the 58 yarder counted. Zeke had 45 total.

So did Pollard's other 6 carries that he didn't do shit with.

Huge issue. In part fueled by the fact that we couldn't run for shit.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Well yeah when you're looking at 3rd and 8s or longer most of the game it's brutal. I also don't understand why we suddenly suck at those 6-8 yard type passes.

 

[T-RO]

They didn't earn the Shift.

They played shitty and shafted the spirit of the Shift?

Nah. Just win baby!

 

[Genghis Khan]

Eh I thought the last few games the Saints got run all over. I stand corrected.

No, you're actually right, they did. The eagles put up over 240 yards rushing on them, and the Bills put up 113.

So did Pollard's other 6 carries that he didn't do shit with.

no dispute, all carries matter and count. the 58 and the 13.

It was definitely important.
