1. The diggs interception. Thankfully they didn’t overturn. To be honest didn’t look like an interception to me.

2. The goal line fumble by Detroit. Plus the great stop by parsons on the hustle play to stop them at the 1.


If either of those plays have different results and I think we lose the game.

horrible game but we still found a way to win.

Agreed, though I thought it was an interception live and still did after the replays.

Also I wouldn't exactly say it was a horrible game. Detroit has a respectable offense and we held them without a touchdown.

usually is the case for most games in NFL, comes down to 3 or 4 crucial plays at most.

the interception by Diggs, was an interception, he had his hand under it. and in order for it to be turnover, it has to be conclusively verified that it wasn't.

If Brown did not fumble and they go on to get a TD. Then those two plays may never have happened.

One or two plays make all the difference in most games, but when Dallas fans say that after a loss, we’re always told—“No excuses, it’s all part of the game, you lost, you’re not as good, suck it up crybaby, yada yada yada.” So….

You have to include the play prior to the goal line fumble. Detroit scored a touchdown, but the refs blew the call, and Detroit didn't challenge it.
The refs helped the Cowboys a great deal, and it certainly made a difference. Kinda suspicious, to be honest.
And yes; I think the Cowboys would have lost, otherwise.

The same could be said about Noah's fumble at the 5.

Just part of the game.

All that matters is the final score.

While we are reversing plays, if Dak hit Brown with an accurate throw on the first play, TD!
