Randall Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Nice try, but fell a little short(about 2 inches on that field goal). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowboysDiehard Posted January 16, 2017 Author Share Posted January 16, 2017 Yep. We suck. We've stunk it up for the last 20 years and it isn't going to change for a while. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolverines Fan Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 (edited) Yep. We suck. We've stunk it up for the last 20 years and it isn't going to change for a while. Oh well. Seriously? You guys have the Dak and EE show to look forward to for the next decade. They're going to be awesome. https://twitter.com/ESPNStatsInfo/status/820789202635943941 Edited January 16, 2017 by Wolverines Fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowboyz1 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 (edited) I'm here alright. I just didn't want to jinx the game. Now that it's over I guess I can give you my thoughts. I am broken about the game. I thought the team came out flat and gave GB too many opportunities to get ahead and reduce the ability to use Zeke to wear them down. The refs suck. I don't think I have ever seen a UC call for 15 yards called on a guy that runs out on the field and runs back off. It's not like he was bent over in the huddle. That call seemed very suspicious to me. Then the call on Free for man handling the DB on the Zeke sweep was another crazy call. Then they go and close their eyes when Irving gets held badly on the last play. Just looking at the game, GB was didn't get called for anything, yet the Cowboys seemed to get flagged for the same things GB was doing. They did let them play for the most part and kept the flag in their pocket on a few calls that could have been made but there was some GB fans in the officials crew for sure. Now as far as the Cowboys going toe to toe with the best QB in the game, I gotta hand it too Dak and the rest of the offense for really stepping up today. Dak was legendary and had he of pulled this game out he would have gone down in Cowboys lore. The defense however, was not ready for prime time. Yes, they made some pretty amazing plays when they had too but they gave up way too many plays that could have been stopped. The last play of the game before Cosby sticks the knife in our hearts was a perfect example. For one, why are you playing prevent on 3rd and 20 with 18 seconds left. Why not put pressure and force the quick throw? Ok so they played coverage. Then cover damn it. What the hell was Jones doing letting Cooks run behind him totally free towards the sideline. He had no one else to cover but space. He has to know Rodgers can put the ball anywhere so why leave the guy wide open? I have to say this was perhaps the greatest divisional playoff game I have ever watched despite coming out on the losing end. The teams played their guts out and made some awesome plays. Heath should have tomahawk chopped Rodgers arm on that sack though. That ball has to come out there period. The Cowboys let a golden opportunity slip by but we have a great foundation to work with. Getting some defensive help and we end up back in the mix next year. Sucks to be me today but that was one hell of a great effort from my boys. Well here's to next year.
