I happen to think so. You can't go 2 down to possibly the entire division and having lost to one of those teams (2 down in the loss column to the Falcons). Limit the mistakes and the Saints win this game. Everything will depend on the push from the D-line of the Saints. The game within the game.
Reggie Bush hasn't practiced in 2 days because of his knee and is questionable. Is any other team as decimated as the Saints with injuries? I'm no asking 'what next?'
Well we get Colston, Patten and Shockey back this week. The only player left is Ellis. Although both Lake and Young are listed as questionable, so the DT spot is a bit thin.
Romo, Felix Jones, Sam Hurd, Terrance Newman, Roy Williams, Matt McBriar 4 out of that 6 have been to the Pro Bowl. I still think the Saints have been more depleted, but the point of my post is to say "cry me a river", because 31 other teams have guys who they'd love to have back. I do think the return of these guys will help a ton this week, though, naturally.
I knew Colston would be back. Did not know Shockey and Patton would. Of course, other teams have had their share of injuries and the Cowboys are definitely one of them. They run 2nd to the Saints for their fair share.
