I didn't feel it was over at any of those moments. Or, for that matter, when we were pushing them around at halftime and got the football on the opening drive of the second half. I did think our back was up against the wall at each of those opportunities, but still felt like we had a puncher's chance if we just kept playing.
Oddly enough, for me, I also didn't have that pit in my stomach when we gave them the ball with a chance to tie it at the end of the fourth. Normally, I would. Even our drive before that, I had brainfarted and was so wrapped up in the clock that I forgot momentarily that we were in fg range. I thought we were going to have to protect a 4 point lead there to hold out for the win, and I thought for the first time in I can't remember how long 'we can probably do that.' That's crazy-talk for me.

I was so angry that I had to leave the room. I didn't make it more than about 3 minutes before I came crawling back. Ugh. I kept repeating to my wife that entire second half that there is no way that this should be a game right now. Oh well. It all worked out in the end.

I'll never understand fans who want to be the first to call "game over."

No. If you did, you have not followed the Cowboys very long. Being down 10 points is nothing.

I didn't think the game was over at that point because this is a different team then we have seen in the past. I will say I didn't think they would win the game until after the 3 and 20. Even then I was still not sure.

Nope. I was pissed that the team needed that kind of a reminder to tighten the hell up.

So did I and when we muffed the exchange between Romo and Frederick I said to myself, here we go again, we are going to blow it again. I had to change the chanel. I couldn't bare to watch anymore. I said same old Cowboys, but these guys are different. I get the same feeling that I had back in the early 90's.
