Sportsman of the Week Ending 9/15/2024


The second weekend of NFL action was filled with unexpected results as experts thought who were the best teams but oh were they wrong.  The Dallas Cowboys, in perennial fashion, were media darlings after a dominant win over the favored Cleveland Browns on the road in Week 1 in a game they looked like a team their fans expected.  Enter Week 2.  As heavy favorites in their home opener, the Cowboys found themselves down early and often, specifically as Alvin Kamara tore through them via land and air.  The veteran running back (and second time Sportsman of the Week winner) scored 3 TDs in the first half and had 180 combined yards as the Saints drilled the Cowboys 44-19 in a game that wasn't as close as the score if you can believe it.  Now the Saints are suddenly the talk of the NFC while Kamara is the Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
