How did Dallas lose that game?

I'm looking toward the draft, but give me a vet WR that can run a route and catch a ball in the offseason.

Although the team made the right move in hindsight, this is why Romo stood on the table to try to keep Laurent Robinson.

Marinelli special

ok so 3 man rush and no one covering cook had no bearing on the play ???

Third and forever and we couldn't keep the play in front of our defense. Blitz don't work and your burned any way. Like I said, a great play by the Packers.

In my opinion coaching ... This coaching staff has not proven they are capable of leading this team in crunch time. Some things I really felt they could not do against GB was fall behind big and get off to a slow start and turnovers, the turnovers were a balanced out...the other 2 was on full display. JG and this coaching will not lead this team to promised land, we can wait, but it's pretty evident for the most part this coaching staff struggles in December and January under this regime.

The Steelers had the ball last. We just didn't give them enough time, and they ended the game at our 20.

Yeah, that's what I essentially meant. There was roughly 30 seconds left and they needed a TD

The difference was Dallas only needed a FG to win at Pittsburgh, so letting the clock run was fine. It just so happened they crowded the line and Zeke popped one. In the GB game a FG only tied it. Dallas was trying to get a TD - does anyone think they really wanted to play overtime with Rodgers?

In the end, we only got a FG and Rodgers had time to pull a rabbit out of his hat. We tried to win instead of settling for OT, and it cost us. I'm okay with that philosophy.
