I think for any team not named the Cowboys, we'd be getting a better number here. Quite frankly, this Cowboys team is overvalued as shit, and they might be the worst coached team in the NFL.
Having said that, I definitely agree with your thoughts on the situation. The pressure of going undefeated might be starting to set in for the Saints. I think everyone vividly remembers the last prime time game they played at home against a brand name opponent. But this spot is different here, and I think it's one that's increasingly difficult for the Saints to keep on covering.
