6. How many times have the Dallas Cowboys played the Saints in the playoffs?

This will be the 30th regular-season meeting between the two franchises. The Cowboys hold a five-game edge over the Saints, a 17-12 regular-season record. But the two-storied franchises have never met in the postseason.

7. The Dallas Cowboys are hot at 3-0. They can’t lose in New Orleans, right?

I have a silly feeling about this one. No, my opinion won’t make me popular with Cowboys fans. But, let’s be honest: The Superdome is no joke. It’s far from paradise.

I’m worried about the Cowboys committing too many fouls in the loud arena. Ultimately, I think the Cowboys will have their eyes all over the field and end up shooting themselves in the foot. Besides, Teddy Bridgewater is starting for his home team. For all he’s been through, the football universe loves him and he will deliver.

Dallas Cowboys 27, New Orleans Saints 34.

8. Can’t sack Dak Prescott?

The Dallas Cowboys front line has returned to the throne. With a boost from Travis Frederick at the center position, the offensive line hasn’t been superior. In 2018 alone, quarterback Prescott took home 56 sacks. In 2019, he’s been sacked only two times in three games.
