Cowboys were 195-0 when leading 14 points in 4th qtr

[Diehardblues]

An amazing record which included not only the regular season but playoffs.

Never before in Cowboys history had we lost a game after leading by 14 points in 4th qtr.

How does one of the alleged top defenses in NFL this year blow a 14 point lead in 4th qtr?

 

[DogFace]

Seems about right. Why do I feel like this was a huuuuuge loss?

 

[Diehardblues]

Fans don’t even want to discuss why our defense gave up 31 points. Or a 14 point lead in 4th qtr.

So we were due

 

[Asklesko]

We made history

when they posted this stat during the game I said oh **** we are screwed

 

[stilltheguru]

It's because our leader was asking for jersey swaps pregame. We idolize hof qbs. The great defenses don't show love pre game or during.......most of the time not even post-game.

It’s been a little while since Dallas had one of these stats. It seemed to be happening every week. Glad they are back on track.

.....they prefer to mudsling Dak and excuse a whole bunch of other failures.

That isn't true. The Cowboys have blown 14 point leads in the 4th. I think the statistic is, going into the 4th quarter with a 14 point lead. That statistic doesn't count games where Dallas went in to the 4th quarter with a 7 point lead, scored again giving them a 14 point lead.

One record that didn't fall in the Jason Garrett era. Shocked it didn't happen then, TBH.

It's been discussed, a lot. The defense sucked against the run. They gave up a 14 point lead because...

1) They couldn't stop GB.
2) That's it.

Also, the offense didn't move the ball or score a point in the 4th quarter on 2 drives where Dak was 2-6 for 9 yards. Or in the first quarter when he was 0-4 on 2 drives. Scores in either of those quarters, even a FG and we win.

Lots of blame here.

I mean, 195-1 is pretty dang good

Not really. Not sure why that’s a bigger focus than the 28 points in between which provided a 14 point lead in 4th qtr . Which was enough in the previous 195 games in Cowboys history.

 

[DCowboyz]

Same old Cowboys. This loss just tells us nothing special is happening this season guys. We are still bound to lose like we always lose. Especially to Rodgers.

Right. Going into the 4th qtr.

Sounds like it.

Only reason we were 6-2 is our top 10 defense which was only allowing an average of 14 points a game. And then it blows a 14 point 4th qtr lead.

If this is our real defense then we might not even make the playoffs.

You must have missed all posts blaming the defense and run game for the loss. Or you just really want to push everything on the defense and ignore the failures of the offense?
