The entire defense!! The linebackers were the only thing that disappointed me but Shockey makes a lot of LBs in this league look goofy.

I'm especially giving it to the defensive line which did its best until the end when it looked like it ran out of gas. La'Roi Glover was a beast, Ware is continuing his march for Rookie of the Year! Ellis ran like a near 300 pound madman on that fumble return! And the secondary. Henry and Newman shut down the Giants receivers, Roy made some big plays!

On offense, I'm putting them in detention this week. :mad: A few bright spots. I'm giving it to Barber for coming in and giving us some resemblance of a running game. Larry Allen because he seemed like the only offensive lineman who didn't have problems with penalties, sacks, injuries, or anything else. Keyshawn too because although he fumbled, he made some "key" catches later in the game!

And I'm also reluctantly giving one to Cortez who single-handedly increased my blood pressure to dangerous levels but I'll be damned, he made the clutch FG!

Go Cowboys!!!

I would not give a gameball to anyone, but if I had to chose, Jose Cortez.

Even though the D collapsed late in the game, they really held the Giants to 4 points by my count.

First two FGs were on the offense = 0 points on the D.

Generated a TO after the offense turned the ball over in the red zone at the start of the 3rd quarter = - 3 points

Gave up the late TD = 7 points.

Net is 4 points given up.

Could count it as 1 point if you want to give them credit for the FG off the Ellis fumble recovery.

sure dont give it to Parcells...

if Jimmy Johnson had balls of brass, Parcells has balls of cotton

that was horrendous coaching in the 4th qtr again...you'd think the goober would learn something from repeated 4th qtr collapses

and hey Mike Zimmer, would you please TRASH the frwaking PREVENT DEFENSE, again, you'd think somebody would learn something

Ware. Got another sack. Caused a false start. Still getting good pressure on the QB. Got that nice tackle behind the line.

Henry - Newman a close second. They basically shut out the Giant WRs minus one 28yder from Burress. Henry made some HUGE plays. And Newman - well you just never seem to hear his name anymore, which is a good thing for a CB.
