No the biggest reason for that loss was that the team knew it could not lean on Emmitt owing to his going into the game with a bad hammie so guys came out trying to do too much. That's what led to Aikman going to Kevin Williams on the first drive and letting Eric Davis beat him to a slant for a pick 6. Then to Kevin Williams trying to do too much on that KOR and fumbling as well. Then just for good measure you had Irvin fumbling trying to do too much on the next possession. Had the Cowboys simply been able to play THEIR brand of football, which would have featured a heavy dose of Emmitt and play defense they would have eventually solved that 49er pass rush and in fact not being down 21-0 in the first 5 minutes thanks to three turovers would have meant the 49er pass rush could not pin its ears back knowing the Cowboys were in pass only mode. If that game stays 7-0 through the first quarter the Cowboys probably win that game by two scores. That game was lost on the early turnovers. The early turnovers were because Emmitt was compromised and the Cowboys were forced to play a different game than they wanted to.
