The New Orleans Saints will host the Dallas Cowboys on ‘Sunday Night Football’ during Week 4 of the 2019 NFL regular season, penciling them in for a kickoff on September 29. Jeff Duncan of the Times-Picayune first reported the scheduling.
Dallas upset New Orleans in 2018 during a nationally-broadcast Thursday night game. It was a perfect storm: young Cowboys linebackers Jaylon Smith and Leighton Vander Esch smothered Saints running backs Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram. The Saints’ receivers weren’t able to get consistent separation, the Cowboys’ pass rushers turned up the heat, and New Orleans went home with a 13-10 loss on their hands.
