21 Crazy Cowboy Losses Since '05

[Corso]

with each loss i age 5 years. i'm 24 years old but in cowboys years i'm 130 yrs old.

Damn. When I was 24- I was doing too many... uh... things to even think about participating on a message board on the reg.

But I like you, Zordon. Keep posting, brother. You bring honest takes. Even if I disagree (which I usually don't) I respect that.

Now? I'm getting too old to do... uh... things. Thank GOD I have a younger girlfriend who keeps me striving to be younger than my age.

It's like borrowed time.

This is fun. I like this... trying to come to a consensus on what should be considered a 'crazy' game.

I can see it with '07 at Detroit. Forgot about that game where we didn't show up until the 4th quarter, Witten fumbled at the goal line, but came back and was the savior on a final drive in under 2 minutes.

I could MAYBE 2009 KC, just because it was bizarre for a nobody like Miles Austin to explode like he did. But it was a fairly back and forth game. Both the Chiefs and Cowboys both got 2 possessions in OT.

I can maybe see it for a 2009 New Orleans club as well. But really there was nothing too crazy in that game. It didn't play out like everyone expected, but there wasn't anything unusual about the game itself.

And I don't see it at all with the Pittsburgh game. That was a back and forth game between to evenly matched clubs and the game just ended (for all intents and purposes) with an interception.

@ SF 2011

that was a crazy win, 80 TD pass in OT, against one of the best defense in recent memory.

It wasn't a touchdown pass - it went to the one yard line - but might as well have been.

Very painful to watch, ... but this thread needs to be on the board.

We all need reminded of what a fiasco it is in Dallas.

'Give' games away, ... 'fumble, bumble, stumble' games away, .. 'stupid decision' games away, .. 'poor coaching' games away, .. 'dumb player' games away, .. 'no guts' games away .

And that is just to teams that we were as good as, or better than.
That does not even include the Campo years when we just sucked as a team.

(What year was it against the steelers that Anderson bumped Testaverde's arm causing a fumble when we were running out the clock? They scored and won)

Guess it wouldn't be Halloween without a trip thru our haunted past

You can't make this stuff up. Me shaking my head...
