They are showing bits and pieces of it on ESPN this morning. Not sure if it's still running.

nfl.com has clips from the Emo Dallas press conference. Strangely enough T.O. is the one that sounds most professional, of course that could be because he could care less about the loss.

Dallas had no business in the playoffs anyway.

Same goes for KC

Geez, same goes for the Seahawks and the Giants and maybe even the Eagles, you know? As gutsy and as clutch as the Eagles played down the stretch, it was as much a case of the Giants and the Cowboys losing the division as it was of the Eagles winning it, and, hey, I'm a diehard Eagles fan!

I agree with the above. No disespect to the teams that made it but the NFC was pretty horrible this year.

They should have won, there was no way there was enough evidence to support it to overturn the 1st down. Game was won by Dallas I am sorry but it was.


And, while I hate him right now, I hope that ref has a good day because I know he has to deal with sh*t all the time, and it really is not his fault, Dallas should have just scored right then and there. Although I wouldn't have liked to take my chances with their defense.

Whaaaa...tons of games are lost by bad officiating, (which in this case was GOOD officiating) The video clearly showed Seattle stopped forward momentum before he got to the 1 yard line...No first down.

When a team backs into the NFL playoffs, they usually back out quicker.

Classic case of it. Dallas played much like the Seahawks: outside chance wannabes at the end of a crappy regular season. The slightly-less-mediocre team won.

I can't believe that happened last night. My wife and I both felt bad for Romo.

Condolences to the Cowboys fans...

No, Waggy is right. How about the fact that the Seahawks didn't convert on the GAME WINNING TOUCHDOWN on the previous drive? How about the fact that there was still well over a minute and plenty of time for Seattle to drive and kick a GAME WINNING field goal (ahem, that they've done 4 times this year)?

Please don't ever post in a sports thread again.

It can't be a "game winning touchdown" if you're already up by one. Freaking retards in here, I swear. They were WINNING. It can't be a game winner if you're already winning!!!!

That would be called EXTENDING YOUR LEAD. L-E-A-D is the key word here.

What Seattle did/does has nothing to do with the fact that Romo fumbled the ball.

Did you happen to watch the press conference? Romo "I cost my team the game".

He even admits he lost the game for the team.

You and Waggy go make out in a corner and try to educate yourself on some football.

Ok deep breath. now exhale. ok you feeling better? no? ok again deep breath and exhale.

now try to understand that people have diffrent ideas. such as i feel that you can not blame the lose to romo on the botch kick. Also if it was made you could not give romo all the credit.

he is doing what a good leader does. take the blame (wich in a win he gets all the credit also).

sheehs.

the call could have gone either way. but after watching it like 10 times i have to say i don't think he made the 1st down.

While I didn't bother rooting for either team, I'd have to say this was more a case of Dallas losing the game, than Seattle winning it. Dallas had chance after chance to put the game away, and blew it. Now they've got the off season to think about it!

To me, here's what Dallas has to do, if they want to see another Superbowl in the forseeable future:
1. Get rid of T.O. I don't care what they've been paying him, he wasn't worth it. Shoot, they probably could've done better using that money to put a couple above average receivers on the team, who likely would've caught more passes and scored more than T.O. did! Better yet, use the money to get a place kick holder!
2. Trade Romo. His on-again/off-again skill just doesn't cut it. I doubt I've ever seen a QB that can be so good a player one moment, and so terrible the next! He's inconsistant, and not worth the money. Trade him now, while he's still got some value, and bring in someone with consistant talent. I'd rather see someone who can give above average performance week after week, than someone who gives brilliant performance one play, and moronic the next!
3. Like I said at the beginning of the 1st point, get a dang place kick holder!!!

1) i fully agree. get rid of him. between the fact he was not worth the money on the field all the BS off the field is enough to get rid of him

2) Romo lacks experiance. i think its his 4nd year in but he didn't play much until this year. but he does need to get consistant. but wont see that until he plays much more. but if they can trade him (then they are screwed for QB really bad) they darn well better get something good.

3) i think a big part of kicking problems is Tuna. he has a bad reputation with them. Not many want to play for him.

 

[Deeko]

Romo is so overrated.

Also, has anyone noticed for the past couple of weeks on how Romo is throwing the ball. It appears his release is different and now lately he's been having a huge problem with holding onto the ball. Even with slight pressure and being hit causes him to be fumble happy. Add to this , his wonderful holding of that field goal attempt last night leads me to believe he is injured and is witholding this info from the coaching staff.

Well first off, as far as QBing goes, Romo played a good game. Not spectacular, but he had no turnovers. Yes he lost it on the hold, but that has nothing to do with how he did as the QB. However, on your fumble comment - that's actually something that could be true, the announcers in the Detroit game said they might want to look at his hand because it might be injured. Eh, no excuses, but it might be something to look into.

1. Get rid of T.O. I don't care what they've been paying him, he wasn't worth it.

3. Like I said at the beginning of the 1st point, get a dang place kick holder!!!

1) why get rid of TO?? While he's been his usual mouth-offish self, he hasn't been a "problem" or a "cancer", he led the league in touchdowns, and not only that, when he's NOT being thrown to, he usually attracts double coverage which takes heat off the other receivers. Keep TO. Its not like they have anyone to replace him with.
2) Huh? You're nuts. Why would they trade Romo? Its his first year starting, he's still inexperienced. Not worth the money? They're paying him like $1 mil. That's nothing for a starting quarterback, let alone one with potential to be very good. And like the first point - who do they replace him with?? The 36 year old pick-waiting-to-happen Drew Bledsoe? Please.

On the note of the challenged play that got reversed at the end - it was not a first down. I didn't think it was a first down when he caught it, I said "wow that's an amazing spot, run to the line and run a play before they can review it". It was CLEARLY well before the line.

My justification? The football gods were giving the Seahawks their due Last year the Seahawks outplayed the Steelers in the Superobowl, and lost. Last night, the Seahawks got completely outplayed, and won. The universe has righted itself.

 

[Slugbait]

Last night, the Seahawks got completely outplayed, and won

I certainly wouldn't agree with that statement. The Cowboys' best receiver got a measly 41 yards. Hell, T.O. only got 26 yards. And this was against guys who were starring in Capitol One commercials last week.

As far as that reversed call, I saw one angle that wasn't conclusive to overturn...I saw two angles that were conclusive. I agreed with the reversed call.

But that doesn't matter...if Romo hadn't muffed it, Dallas still left too much time on the clock for Seattle to get within FG range.

 

[GuitarDaddy]

What a pitiful excuse for a playoff game

As a cowboys fan I'm kind of glad it ended that way, even though Dallas outplayed Seattle in this game, they showed nothing to indicate they could advance. Seattle will get killed in the next round, unless they seriously up their level of play. There were several questionable calls that went against the Boys but you have to expect that on the road.

Once again the play calling by Dallas was terrible, and the level of intensity was not there. With the level of talent that they have, to lose 3 out of the last 4 regular season games in the fashion that they did, then lose a playoff game to a pitifully depleted and slumping team is just unacceptable. IMO it's time for the Tuna to go

 

[evilsaint]

Seahawks fans, ready for you second smackdown of the year? At least when we beat you 37-6 before, you had an excuse with Alexander and Hasselbeck being out Daaa Bearsss!

 

[SVT Cobra]

Anyone who watched the Eagles game today can tell you even John Madden and Al Michaels agreed that the official did not have conclusive evidence to overturn the call on the field. I do not see how you guys can obviously see it was not a 1st down, when even John Madden cannot. Can I see the angle you are viewing? Was it better than the line judge who was right there on the field? Thanks I appreciate it.


Anti-fanboy crap.

Are you kidding me? You think John Madden has some sort of magical eyesight and can amazingly see perfectly on his little screen up in his booth? He is a commontator, that is all.

yeah but they came against Chicago when they were doing great. Right now the defence is not doing great and Rex has no clue what is going on.

if the rex that has a 0.0 passing rating shows up seatale is going to kick ass. If the rex with a 100+ passing rating shows up it will be a good game. big t hing is also is chicago going to actually play defence?


either way it should be a good game.

 

[BoomerD]

If you watch the film, that line judge didn't get to that point until after they had him stopped and down...AFAIK, Madden used the same film we all saw to base his opinion.
