Saints v. Cowboys: Saints up 29-27, Dallas trailed by 17 #saints #cowboys

Thanksgiving NFL football has seldom been better. After down by as much as 17 to 0, the Dallas Cowboys under Interim Head Coach Jason Garrett, have scored 27 points to be up 27 to 23 over the New Orleans Saints. Then, with just under 2 minutes to go, the Saints just scored a touchdown to go up by three points.

The Dallas Cowboys have to go to within field goal range to tie, touchdown to win over the World Champion Saints.

The game, if Dallas should come back to win, should be enough to take the "Interim" tag off Jason Garrett's title. Regardless of the outcome, the Dallas Cowboys has showed a great combination of fight and disciplined play under pressure. Something they've not done all year.

What Dallas is extensively using is a good, well executed short passing game. Perhaps former Head Coach Wade Phillips didn't want such a passing attack. That has to be the reason, because this group's not afraid to use the latest short passing concepts as part of it's attack.
