First of all thanks for letting me be part of this board during the buildup to this game. I enjoyed learning more about your team and awnsering questions about the Vikings.

I obviously loved the outcome of this game. Although I was pretty nervous in the beginning. Romo moved the ball with ease the first 2 drives the little things stalled momentum for the Cowboys. The Vikings first drive was a 3 and out with a Ware sack. I thought oh boy this is going to be a long one for the Vikes.

Big plays piled up for the Vikings and as the Cowboys got behind they had to ditch the run game (they were dominating ) and would have been interesting to see if they could have stuck with it more what the outcome would have been.

As I predicted I felt the Cowboys were flirting a fine line with being over confident after beating the eagles back to back.

It clearly carried over to this game. Miles Austin celebrating after 7 yd catches. Marion Barber going ape **** after a 4-5 yd run....I have no issue celebrating...as long as there is a reason to celebrate. Routine play celebration make you look like an idiot and those 2 certainly did

From an outsiders perspective it was clear this team still has the TO syndrome and some of the players are in it for themselves and personal success.

This Cowboy team is highly talented I think they had a coach that was a strong leader and fostered a strong team atmosphere and instead of all the me me stuff going on you guys would be a lot better.

Thanks for the insight, maybe if we had a coach like Childress who calls play action pass into the endzone with 2:50 on the clock up 27-3 we would be better.

The Dallas Cowboys have zero Terrell Owens issues.

So does throwing a TD at the end of a game when you should be running out the clock and showing some respect for the other team.

we really needed to take advantage of those early drives, I can't figure out why when Suisham was only hitting from 44 yards out pregame, we put him out to try a 48 yard FG, I much rather would have gone for it. I believe we come back to Minnesota next year, we'll see if Diva Favre is there or we get to beat up on Jackson or maybe as the whispers go McNabb.

Funny - I said the same about MB3 he picked up 4 and started acting the fool - Miles is just how he is , he ate you up early - your DL overpowered our OL and we were ill prepared for the D you threw at us - which why we are questioning Garrett.

If that game is in Dallas I think we'd win ....homefield is huge ....

BTW -Adrian Peterson's days of dominance are over - you can see it , he's still very good but teams now focus on him.....he hasn't had a monster game in 2 months and wasn't a factor vs Dallas.

barber was looking and screaming at the cowboys sidelines trying to fire them up.

When you don't watch the cowboys very often you make some stupid assumptions based on ignorance.

Hmmm thats why Barber was going nuts after running 4 yds

Maybe Austin should save celebrations for plays that are big or touchdowns.

They looked like clowns.... It was all about them not the Cowboys. Austin is a dicisple of TO and it shows....sorry truth hurts I guess

Fan of a team with Lord Favre at QB talking about selfishness on our team.

Hilarious.

Over exuberance does not equal the stupid in-game antics of Terrell Owens. Obviously, you have very little knowledge of Owens idiocy.
