The most painful loss in the last 14 years (Romo botched snap hurt).

I was in attendance for this game and the Dez “no catch” game. But this took the cake easily.

Garrett, who had 3 weeks to prepare, has the team come out flat.

This was also the game that made me realize despite the injuries and setbacks, Dez was still a monster. He literally took over
Again, the spike was INEXCUSABLE!! Reduced our chances of getting a first down on that series by 33%( analytics, and common sense)!

if the defense cant hold for 30 secs its on them they blew it all game long dak brought us back 2 ding times to tie it and finally take a lead..

where was the defense , as usual nowhere to be fund in a playoff game..our offenses has done plenty under garett to win games and the defense has NOT..
This was a high scoring game. Garrett new it. Garrett new GB had Rogers! Garrett wasted a down, with less than a minute to play, which greatly reduced our chance to continue to bleed the clock, and possibly score a TD. Garrett’s terrible clock management, and settling for a FG, because he wasted a play, allowed to much time on the clock for Rogers!
Garrett could have helped his defense by kicking off short at the end of the game. This could have ran 6-10 seconds of the clock. GB’s kick return was really mediocre with their backup return guy. The kickoff before the last one, 6-8 seconds ran off the clock, and they only made it to the 18 yard line.

Funny. I was at both of those games as well.

Almost never did anything to give his talented teams an edge!
So all you remember is the loses? what about the wins? I believe in the end players are responsible for wins, coaches don't play. no matter the coaches decision the player has to carry it out

Coaching could have been the deciding factor on a lot of our close games, not only against Green Bay. It just seems that when we need a coach to plan or strategize during the waning moments of a game, the other team wins.

This is a Garrett trademark. He because dumbfounded and bewildered at situational football. Even when he has not authority to call any plays whatsoever he still can't manage a game.

Jerry pissed away this year. We could have had MM this year. Jerry put our offense in the hands of a rookie OC. This was total mismanagement of this season.

Dez was wide open on the 3rd down play running the slant and the ball was batted down at the line of scrimmage
It should have been 2nd down!! But Garrett decided on the spike! Dumb coaching, but typical Garrett.

That game was ours to win!!!!!!!

The score was tied 31-31 and we received the kickoff with around 1:45 on the clock. We quickly move down the field. We just made a 1st down. We are on the 41 yard line, just out of Bailey’s FG range, the clock is just under 1 minute and we have a TIMEOUT!! The clock is moving.

I am yelling at the TV, “call a timeout, don’t waste a play, don’t spike the ball”. Of course if you spike the ball you decrease your chances of getting a first down on the upcoming series by 33%!!!! That is Gigantic!! We had plenty of time and a timeout. There was no reason AT ALL to waste a down by spiking the ball!!! What does Garrett do? Calls for the spike!! So dumb!! Beasley gains 7 on 2nd and gets out of bounds, then a ball is tipped at the line, incomplete pass on 3rd down. WE SHOULD HAVE ANOTHER DOWN to continue the drive, but no, we wasted a down spiking the ball and STILL HAVE THE TIMEOUT!!!! We are forced to have Bailey try 52 yard FG. He makes it, but GB still has over 30 seconds to get into FG Range.
Rogers makes a great play, while Irving is being held, on 3rd down. They gain 25 yards and then kick the game winning FG.

Great News!! Garrett is now GONE, and McCarthy a Super Bowl winning HC is now in charge!!

GO Cowboys! We now have REAL hope!

we couldn’t have possibly been tied 31-31. That would have put us up 34-31 after Bailey FG. So we were down 28-31 right?

I was there as well. I legit couldn't move for minutes after it ended.
