OMG the Cowboys! Monday Night Football | Cowboys - 25, Bills - 24

[Wilhelmsan]

QB Tony Romo throws 5 interceptions and fumbles once. In the football world this almost always means GAME OVER, yet...

Cowboys still win in a miraculous chain of events.

8 behind with 20 seconds left, they score a touchdown and need a two-point conversion to tie the ball game at 24-24. No. 81 Terrell Owens seemingly catches the ball before it falls from his hands.

The last chance of victory for Dallas lies within a risky onside kick. The technique succeeds, giving Dallas' resilient offense a chance. After an incomplete pass, Dallas makes two clutch plays to move down the field and put kicker Nick Folk within position to score a game-winning field goal.

From 50-something yards it's good!

But wait, there's more. Made possible in part by a new rule in the NFL and a moment of true h4x on the part of Bills coach **** [Richard] Jauron, a Buffalo timeout was permitted as Folk attempted his kick. The result was that Dallas now had to make the same kick again, and Nick Folk pulled through.


Please discuss this amazing victory for my favorite NFL team. Or maybe you're a Bills fan and you've just pooped out a cinder block, either way, this is up for discussion.

It's still true love between us.

Just saw that game, sweet as hell.

What's more epic is that Stanford beat USC 24-23 two nights before.

There, fixed it

 

[Arubameleefan]

Whoa! Some Game, *i didn't watch it, as my Yankees did terrible!*
Too bad for USC, what are they ranked now in the poll?

 

[Pit 42]

Eh, the only thing good about the cowboys are their cheerleaders.

But I'm not going to say anything else as my own NFL team is doing horribly...

It got ripped from his hands, by Jabari Greer. Thtat game was amazing though. I think tony cornhauser(sp?) said it best when he sed that the bills fans who missed work to see this game definetly got their moneys worth.

Agreed. As a Dallas fan, I was emotionally ripped as I watched the Bills just do an amazing job with what seemed to be a hint of divine intervention (interception catch in the in-zone) with the combination of Romo not being able to get back to his normal self and just make things worse. I almost stopped watching after Romo fumbled the ball during the drive we needed to tie the game (with the 2-point conversion), but I didn't. However, when we did score, I did cut off the TV and yell at my gf for a while until someone called me about 20 minutes later telling me that the Cowboys are 5-0.

When I rewinded my Tivo and watched those last 20 seconds of the game, I couldn't believe that we actually pulled this off. I'm like, "Man, there's no way we deserve to win this game." with all the mistakes we made and how the Bills capitalized on each one. And then the timeout call with the Bills coach was ingenious.

Definitely one of the greatest games of football I've seen in a very long time.

I found the Bill's ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory amazing. Seriously, your opponent turns the ball over 6 times and you lose? Great game, but the Bills suck hard.

This was easily the best game I've seen since the Patriots/Colts game game last year, though I was really hoping that the Cowboys would lose so they would still be tied for the best record in the NFC along with my Green Bay Packers. That timeout was brilliant too.

I just hope this will get people to shut up about Tony Romo being the next Roger Staubach/Troy Aikman/Brett Favre/lovechild of the three for a while.

 

[Wilhelmsan]

Au contraire, people will draw even greater comparisons to Brett Favre because TR didn't let all those turnovers keep him from completing 9/11 passes in that final TD drive...or those two plays to get within field goal range.

If anything I'm really psyched that Dallas faced adversity and won big in a clutch performance.

and in smash, there's no such thing as cheap...but I'll be darned if that timeout wasn't the lowest blow possible.

 

[the melon!!!!!]

I will say what I said to my friends who watch football and my World Cultures teacher (who also happens to be my school's Varsity football coach).




DALLAS DID NOT DESERVE THAT WIN!!!

If a quarterback gives up 5 picks in one game, there is just supposed to be a big loss on that team's schedule. Is it maybe that the Bills suck that bad!?
