At what point did you all know we would lose?

[Maikeru-sama]

I started to have a feeling that we would lose around the 2nd Quarter when I saw Ray Edwards either hitting Tony Romo or getting extremely close to hitting Tony Romo after he threw the ball each time.

When Flozell Adams went down, I knew this wasn't going to be our night.

The last,meaningless touchdown that Fart-ve threw did it for me!

 

[NoLuv4Jerry]

in the first quarter...it smelled like Denver and Green Bay....up and down the field with ZERO points to show for it. Happened ALL year. Not going to overcome that on the road against a good team.

Flo going down.

Yup. I told my friend after we missed that FG "thats how you lose on the road". Then our O-line proceeded to get completely destroyed all day.

Dood. IMO Edwards was hurting us way more the Allen. Edwards played the best game he'll play in his life yesterday. Gotta give it up to him. He was an animal.

 

[Chief]

When Wade inexplicably sent the field goal unit out for a long field goal early in the first quarter. You have a weak kicker, you're on the road, the crowd is going crazy, you have momentum ....

Dumb decision.

The reason I say that is because if Flozell doesn't get hurt they can but Free in at RT and who knows what may have happened.

I had a feeling before the game that we were over confident. Reading things about having to play the Saints agains etc. but by half time of the game I told my wife we were done.

When Dallas moves up and downt the field as easy as they did in the first quarter...I think the ENTIRE team from the coaches on down were lulled into thinking that was going to be the case all day, so we figured we would take the 3 now because we would get MULTIPLE opportunities like that today.

 

[Woods]

When Flo got injured, I pretty much knew we were in serious trouble.

That's what made it so dumb. If it's so easy to move the ball, then why not keep moving it and get a touchdown? When DeCamillis said that Suisham's range was 51 yards, he was being nice. Suisham has no business attempting a 48 yarder is those circumstances. He made one at home against Philly, but we were already leading, so we took a shot. This was an entirely different situation. Not going for it on 4th and inches sent the Cowboys spiraling downward. I just didn't think it would happen so fast or be as bad as it turned out.

 

[the truth of it all]

the second drive when the cowboys just didnt look right. After that i said "We're going to lose if we dont score here and get something going" .. i turned the game off 20 minutes later.

 

[miamicowboy21]

When favre hit rice for the first TD I knew we were doomed. We dominated the whole 1st quarter and had nothing to show for it. Minnesota took advantage of almost every oppotunity. This game was simlilar to green bay this year except the score was far worse.

100% agree but you know as well as me that Wade was in a lose-lose situation right there if he didn't convert.

 

[BlueBandit]

4th and 1 decided to kick FG and missed - I knew in my guts we were trouble.

I disagree.....I think cowboyszone would take our chances with someone on offense getting 1 yard versus Suisham getting 48.
