After a dismal 6-10 season last year and 1-4 to start 2027, the Hound Dogs have won 3 straight and find themselves in a big game tonight against Rapid City (5-3) for a share of 1st place in the NFC South. The Shadow Dancers are on a winning streak themselves so something will have to give.

Eddy Orcutt will have to repeat his 22/29 334 yard, 5 TD, 1 pick (minus the pick) performance of last week vs. Minnesota for the Hound Dogs to have a chance.

It's been a while since the Dogs have played a big game with any meaning and it gives this beat reporter something to talk about.

Let's go Hound Dogs!!!!!!!!!
