TEAMS: Dallas Cowboys, Houston Texans
Now what happens with the Cowboys? How many times can we watch these Cowboys lose these kinds of games? The Cowboys looked like they were heading towards a division championship as they led the Giants 34-22 with five minutes to go in the game. Then once again as has been the case this season and in past seasons the Cowboys defense allowed a team to drive down the field and score. Then with the Cowboys leading 34-29 all Tony Romo needed to do to seal the game was connect with a wide open Miles Austin for a first down and the game was over. Then the ball sailed over Austin’s head and the Giants got the ball back. Can anyone say that they were confident that the defense was going to make a stand? Right down the field the Giants went and took the lead.
Yes, I understand that Romo brought them down the field to set up a game tying field goal attempt that ended up being blocked to end the game. But does that drive really make anyone feel better about the game?

When Looking for Someone to Blame for Dallas’ Loss to Giants, Look Away from Romo
After a second agonizing loss in as many weeks, there has to be plenty of finger-pointing going on inside the Dallas Cowboys organization. Jason Garrett’s big stink in the closing seconds of the Arizona game, and the atrocious “effort” of the Cowboys defense Monday night are obvious choices for blame game participants.
But in the eyes of most football fans (which are more often...
Tony Romo: Miles Austin Lost Sure Touchdown Ball in the Lights
After blowing a 34-22 lead to the Giants with under six minutes to go, Tony Romo acted like a model team leader by taking responsibility for his team’s loss. Just kidding. He threw teammate Miles Austin under the bus. The Cowboys had the ball after allowing the Giants to score a touchdown to make it [...]

Cowboys blow lead, possibly playoff chances
It doesn't get much worse than that. In the biggest game of the season, the Cowboys choked it away, falling to the New York Giants, 37-34, on Sunday night.
Here are my thoughts:
1.) This one will sting for a long time. It was such a bad loss that Jerry Jones didn't even take questions after the game. He made about a 30-second statement and walked off. Defensive coordinator...
Giants-Cowboys Facts, Figures and Trends
The Cowboys, with Tony Romo at QB, have exactly one playoff game. The Giants with Eli Manning at QB, have won four – all in the same postseason. In three other postseasons, they were one and done.
To say that both still have much to prove, even though their numbers are impressive, is an understatement. Eli needs to show the world he can still win the big game for the Blue....
I Hate When WAGs Where Their “Man’s” Jersey
Well, it didn’t take very long to find my new pet-peeve. It came to fruition on Sunday night, with Candace Crawford bouncing around like a ******* in Tony Romo’s jersey. I hate it. I hate when the WAG wears the husbands jersey in the crowd. It irritates me.
I understand I’m probably a cold-hearted, negative jerkoff, but you don’t like what you don’t...

The Football Gods Hate the Dallas Cowboys
The football gods giveth and the football gods taketh away. How else do you explain the Dallas Cowboys’ Jekyl and Hyde win-loss record from November to December? No matter what the Cowboys did wrong they couldn’t lose in November and now it seems that no matter what they do right they can’t win in December. I mean look at Tony Romo’s numbers from the last two games. He has...
Dallas Cowboys Take Giant Step Backward in Loss to New York on SNF: Time to Point Fingers
It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. And I am still having a hard time believing what happened in this tale of two cities, two teams, and two football fates.
With a 12-point lead and just over five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, the Dallas Cowboys managed to squander what would have been a formidable division lead and lose a gut-wrenching, heart-rending...
Cow-boys amongst men
If the current Cowboys season was a movie, it would be suspenseful from start to finish. They have produced numerous nail-biting games with 9 games being decided under 7 points with all of them having game-winning scores within the last 2 minutes (or overtime). And even though the movie may not be finished, we can start to evaluate how good these Cowboys really are.
It’s hard...
Coronation of Eli
You look at the quarterback ratings right now and see that Eli Manning is ranked only seventh in the league, three spots behind Tony Romo, two spots back of Matt Schaub of the Texans.
Giants/Cowboys: Five things to watch
So the Giants season has come down to this: win at Dallas and the fate of becoming NFC champions is basically in your own hands.
If the Giants were to win, they would carry all the momentum in the NFC East race and would at least partially redeem some of the disappointment in losing their last four games.
Sunday night will no doubt be a showdown. It will be a classic battle of wills...
