Quick game thoughts

When it hit 4th down, why was I able to quickly type "fake punt!!!!!!!!!!" before the snap yet the Cowboys were not ready for it???

I’d feel better if we’d seen the offense continue it’s WAS production and not raise the question of whether we’d returned to the slump.

it was also a good reminder of what happens when you can’t feast on takeaways. Rodgers isn’t going to give us the ball, and it’s a harder game for us when you aren’t up by two scores and pinning your pass rushers’ ears back.

Turnovers, drops, and penalties get you beat in this league. It’s late in the year to be doing ourselves in on miscues. Maybe it was a one game aberration. Let’s hope it’s cleaned up early next week.

I saw that one coming a mile away, too. Good call on their part, though.

Having the 2 seed is much more beneficial than being the 4 seed. Anyone thinking it is better to have to play Green Bay in the 2nd round versus possibly playing the Rams, is not thinking rationally. A scenario with the Packers and Bucs playing each other in round 2, knocking one of them out of the way, is much better than the alternative (having to get thru BOTH on the road).

Dallas blew a very legit opportunity to host the NFC Championship as the 2 seed if TB12 beat Rodgers in round 2.

No way I can be convinced being the 4 seed and having to play the team that just dominated Dallas for 3 quarters yesterday, then having to go to Lambeau, is the scenario the Cowboys brass and players were hoping for...

They came up small in a playoff type moment. Period.
