Did Cowboys win the game or did the Rams lose it?

[LatinMind]

Title speaks for itself. Don't get me wrong it was a hard fought come from behind win and I know everyone in cowboy nation is happy. I just wanted to ask because the Rams dominated us with a nice lead but lost it with plenty of penaltys and misplays. The Rams had some key drops and took gambles going for it on 4th down and let's be honest , the boys caught some breaks this game. We did make some key plays were made on our end as well

Ps no combination answers lets make this a definite yes or no thread then explain your point

Cowboys won it on Carters int. Simple as that. Carter read the play INT. He doesnt get that its a first down Rams

 

[jazzcat22]

cowboys won, period!
They went down, again from mistakes. They fought back, they won. Refs did not help, the calls were legit calls. The one defensive hold was close, but he did grab the jersey.
Rams did not lose it, they kept the pressure on, maybe they looked like they let up, because we made them look like they did.

In tgey past, we seen dallas get behind like this many times, they folded, then they would make comebacks, but still losing most of them, not quite enough. Today they had enough and won it. Maybe things are changing because of this. We will see.

The Cowboys won this game, the Rams lost it because the Cowboys made them lose.
No other conclusions can be made.

Fisher made a bonehead decision to go for it on 4th down instead of kicking the fg and extend the lead to 7.

But the Cowboys still spotted them the first 14 and that on that fumble they benefited greatly to the tripping non-call. Cowboys may have scored on that drive and never looked back.

That trip was so obvious, I don't know how the refs missed it. We finally got a couple of ticky tack calls go our way, though.

Both teams made their share of mistakes. Both teams benefitted from missed or bad calls from the officials. But in the end. Dallas made the plays needed to win the game. The Rams didn't.

Simple answer? Dallas won the game.

The Cowboys pretty much "handed" the potential victory to them in the 1st half.

 

[big dog cowboy]

The Cowboys scored 34 points today and not all of them were gifts from the Rams.

 

[Clove]

We came from 21 nothing to score 34, this includes the defensive score. We beat them.

 

[adbutcher]

I hate this "did the other team lose it" nonsense. If you played better than the other team, you played better than the other team. Mistakes are a part of the game. We turned the ball over twice and still won.

No ****, being 2-1 while playing at less than full capacity must piss off a lot of our fans. There are no easy wins in the league, just put down your cheetos and sock and take a look around the rest of the NFL.

Typical. The realists jump on everyone for saying "we played well we should have won". You know, the old moral victory argument.

This is the same thing, only in reverse: We won but should have lost. We played bad and will lose from now on. Yada, yada....

The team won and minus the turnovers that Murray and Romo had, the team looked pretty damn good.

If I went back and checked your posting history, would I find that you were giving people hell about saying the team played well against San Francisco?

Honestly, it was hard to tell. I feel like Dallas loses if either Cook catches the TD or Davis doesn't gift the INT to Carter at the end. But the Rams certainly got a few gifts themselves.

IF. If we don't do a lot of things the games not close, if does not matter. Can't sit there and say if and only direct it at one side. So if is moot

 

[Oh_Canada]

Cowboys spotted them 21 than rolled them for 34 in just over a half of football. The last TD was handed to them because Dallas inexplicably went into a soft zone.

They play again and Dallas wins by two td's.

You wouldnt and I give you my permission to check. Why is everyone so mad? Did anyone even read the post? We won and I am happy we won. It was just a question.

So "if" The Rams get called for that obvious trip and "if" Romo doesn't throw a ball into Jenkins hands for an easy six Dallas wins by three td's.

This game tells me that if we stop shooting ourselves in the foot, we get to the playoffs. Tony looked more comfortable. We kept a very good DL off him. No battled back for a huge pick. Carter showed up. Hitchens made a few good plays in the "next man up" role. Escobar had an important first down. We have won two road games. Lots to be encouraged by.

Don't think anyone is mad, and if you say you didn't, then I will believe you, that's cool.

However, it does come across a tad like you're saying the Rams should have won... and any fan base is going to bristle at someone saying that when their team won.

Out scoring the Rams 34-10 in the final 2.5 quarters is pretty damn good. Maybe you should give Dallas a little credit for the win.

 

[Gaede]

We won. Case closed.

Ask the Giggles and Chippy Boy if they won their last 3 games, or did the other teams simply lose them? Oh, and you can ask the refs the same question that reffed the Iggles game vs. the Colts.

Cowboys won, Rams lost.
