Dallas hinted that it would be playing all out on their first drive. The Saints are 3-4, but playing well off an 0-4 start and maybe the Superdome will have its juice back today.

Seattle (4-4) improved to an NFL-best 21-6 in games heading into the bye in its second straight win.
Seattle Seahawks’ Russell Wilson (3) breaks away from a tackle-attempt by Dallas Cowboys’ Rolando McClain (55) in the second half of an NFL football game Sunday, November 1, 2015, in Arlington, Texas. A few Seattle players appeared to go after Heath, who was assessed a penalty on the play for an illegal block. Pushing and shoving between the teams ensued, while a cart was driven onto the field and Lockette was strapped down and taken to a local hospital for a precautionary exam. He pointed his right hand towards his Seattle teammates on the sideline, after which thrust his index finger high in to the air. He was initially listed as doubtful on the team’s injury report, but head coach Pete Carroll said Okung is questionable and will be a game-time decision. “We’re grateful he’s been able to bounce back from that, and he’s pretty positive right now”.
Hauschka delivered a game-deciding 24-yard field goal with 1:06 remaining to quiet the majority of the 91,486 fans at AT&T Stadium. Later facing third-and-7, Wilson beat Barry Church to the corner and dived for the first down to allow Seattle to run more clock. But on Thursday night at San Francisco, he picked up 122 yards on 27 rushes.
The return of Bryant will be big for the Cowboys whose playoff hopes this season are dwindling because of all the setbacks they have experienced. “We lose together, and I’m going to try my best to get out on the field and see what happens”. This time the Seahawks will be going traveling to Jerry’s World and face the Tony Romo-less Cowboys.
Late in the first half of the Cowboys’ 13-12 loss to the Seahawks, Dallas safety Jeff Heath delivered a blindside shot that knocked out Ricardo Lockette. Greg Hardy, the much-maligned defensive lineman, batted and intercepted a Wilson pass before returning it to the Seattle 16.
Dallas did move the ball against Seattle’s vaunted defense, but had drives of 12 and 15 plays result in Dan Bailey field goals.
The Cowboys followed with a long, deliberate drive that ended with Bailey’s 33-yard field goal.
Cassel was 13 of 25 for 97 yards in his second start in place of Romo, who will miss at least two more games with a broken left collarbone.
If Bryant returns against the Seahawks, he will be working with current starting quarterback Matt Cassel.

“It’s a fun challenge when I’m asked to do it”, Sherman said. That’s what you’ve got to do when you’re a leader of a football team. With just enough offense and a defense that can still get it done, the Seahawks find themselves at.
