Giving up a TD to end the first half and then another to start the 2nd is almost always the kiss of death. I dont know how one could look up such a thing but this has happened to Dallas a few times and I would bet $ we lost all of those. I remember that happening in the NYG playoff game,
I am a big proponent for kicking off to start the game when you win the toss. Dallas has always been (even back to Garrett) a big lover of taking it first. I guess the reasoning is if you get the ball first then you have a chance to end up with one extra possession. But by that reasoning the reverse is true for the 2nd half, which is the more important half.
Taking the ball first and so frequently going for it on 4th in a risky part of the field isnt the style I would use. Its a ball control, timing and time management game.
But it all worked yesterday. I wonder if this is the first time they gave up two TD's like that and won.
