Upset Special? Cowboys Shutting Saints Out 13-0 at Halftime

The Dallas Cowboys have already shocked the football world in just two quarters, going to the locker room with a 13-0 halftime lead over the New Orleans Saints on Thursday Night Football.

According to the FOX broadcast, this is the first time the Saints haven’t score any first-half points in 71 games. That’s over four seasons.

The Cowboys defense has been the star of the show. Their best moment came after an Amari Cooper fumble gave the Saints great field positions. Dallas held their ground and stopped New Orleans on a 4th-and-goal play.

Dak Prescott is also showing off, completing 15/17 passes for 194 yards and a touchdown pass to Ezekiel Elliott.

Will 13 points be enough of a cushion? The Saints will get the ball to start the second half.

Time to finish the fight!
