Maybe you're still wondering how no one in a Cowboys uniform managed to tackle Brandon Jacobs after he took a pass in the flat and raced 74 yards for a touchdown.
Maybe you would like to blame the officials. Head coach Wade Phillips did Monday when he suggested one of his players was held on the game-changing play.
That player was safety Gerald Sensabaugh. Was he held?
"You can say the guy did a good job of blocking, I guess,'' Sensabaugh said.
"Look, I know officiating is hard. I'm not the type to complain about plays, about calls. I know how hard it is to ref a little league basketball game. That's hard enough. You're always going to get criticized.
"But that's a play that should have never happened. I'm not going to make any excuses. They played a good game and they beat us.''
