Put a lid on that blaming the refs crap... that's loser talk...

The Cowboys had this game, and they let it slip away... the refs aren't to blame for that...

I agree with you for the most part. Just watched the "Flozell Hold That Wasn't" on replay. That's what I was referring to. Bottom line...we should have kept them from completing those passes to Moss.

Look on the bright side the Foreskins executed their football Karma ie that Bull**** FA pancake block. In DC you might see Key get away with a push off or Roy Horsecollaring Portis and tearing his ACL. Two calls that I would point and laugh at. But hey not everyone can go undefeated (although Art at ES might say otherwise) deal with it we are young and just gelling. Next Sunday in SF should be a blowout.

It's pure bullsh*t, plain and simple... excuses are for losers... the Boys should never have put themselves in a position where the refs COULD exert an influence on the outcome...

They have nobody to blame but themselves, and I'm completely disgusted with the way they choked...

I agree with you, especially against a team that was as pathetic as they were offensively the first 3 quarters of the game. There have been many times the last 10 years when I've said that we lost a game, plain and simple. We gave this one away.

On the other hand, I'm not terribly impressed with the Commander D. They shut down the run well, but the only thing that that notches them a win is poor playcalling and miscues by our offense. Congrats on the win, but don't expect games like that every week.

The Giants and 'Skins are 2-0 and the Eagles and Cowboys are 1-1. I don't expect it to look like that at the end.

Bad calls happen. They very rarely decide the game though.

70 yard bombs do however.

For once in my life I saw the Cowboys hearts ripped out

I won't forget this for a while

Dallas was the better team all night, well for 55 minutes at least

Hail the Commanders

Hearts ripped out? Nah. The second game of the year, and it was gift wrapped to your team. You're right. We basically owned you for 55 minutes, and you owned us in crunch time when it counted. I don't think that I would rely on that happening twice under similiar circumstances.

I dunno, I have seen it happen about half a dozen times the last 8 years, so believe me I know

Well, maybe for Commanders fans. Most of us Cowboys fans are just upset we lost this game after dominating it completely. Heart broken. Nah.

That depends on what your priorities are. Beating the 'Skins how ever many out of the last how ever many times it's been has brought me no satisfaction. It's good for a chuckle or maybe bragging rights, but it doesn't win a division or get you in the playoffs by itself, especially in the 2nd week of the season. When it comes to football, I don't live for or gain satisfaction from beating the Commanders.

The season is 16 games long, not two games. We were 1-1 against the 'Skins in '78 when we won the SB, 1-1 in 92 when we won it, 1-1 in 93, and 0-2 in '95. The road to the playoffs is a marathon, not a sprint. And that's all that matters.

Said it would be a good one . And indeed it was.

Well done. Congratulations on a solid win. This very well could propell the 'Skins to the playoffs like our similar comeback over the Giants on MNF did 2 years ago.

Wish we had your quarterback.
