Opinion: Brett Maher says we’ll take this

[mahoneybill]

LOL...I LOVE it that he made the second 60 yarder. I don't know how that had anything to do with playing as a team. I will say this, when things like that go your way, that can fuel momentum. I don't mean game momentum. I mean season momentum. The best seasons all have moments that you can point back to and say things like, "That was a turning point." I don't know if making that second kick was that pivotal. I do know it added just a little bit of fuel to the fire.

Like I said in another thread, I'm more concerned that, yet again, we get a call that most of us have never seen happen in the NFL. I'm filled with distrust towards the NFL. I haven't made a tin-foil hat. But these dumfounded calls remove a lot of the joy of the game for me.

Another example of something happening to the boys that hasn’t happened before in the NFL

If that would have fell short it would have been a clear indication of locker room dissention.

Losers will be losers.

Why do you think Maher’s ability to kick a 60 yarder twice in a row is an indication that this team ‘is truly a team’ and ‘all in for each other’? What if he had missed the second kick? Still all in for each other or only 50/50 (one foot out the door, I suppose)?

Did you see the way the team responded or did you immediately turn your attention to posting something hateful here?

I immediately turned my attention to posting something hateful about the way the team responded.

Mwuhahahaha. MWUHAHAHAHAHAHA. MWUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....

That kick has nothing to do with a statement from the whole team. But it is an indictment on how stupid it was for the NFL to wait almost three minutes before even reviewing the prior catch. It's not like the Cowboys were running a hurry up offense at the time. I feel once the Cowboys lined up for the FG, that's it... time was up for any more delays. Forcing Maher to kick that 60 yarder again was totally out of line. Maher did make the second kick and made it all mute....but it surely does not exempt the NFL trying to screw the Cowboys again. Never seen that before and i bet we won't see it again.

I agree it was weird that they would review after the kick , they didn’t whistle it down or anything. the least they could have done is let the FG stand after the review, since its NFL fault not to review it in time.
