Yeah, I know, some are going to be pissed, quote all the stats and the score and overlook the beauty of what that was. That was football!

That was the best example of real football I have seen this season and yes, it wasn't pretty, it's not supposed to be, it's football. The NFL wants to make it pretty, tonight these two teams crossed them up and it was a thing of beauty.

That was an old fashioned slugfest and these players are going to have more bruises from this game than any they've played in a long time. Both teams fought for every yard they got and will not soon forget this game.

You can be mad about losing and you can point out all the warts but tonight I saw a glimpse of what this game used to be about and there's not a player on either team that should hang their head tonight, neither left anything in the locker room.

I have never been more convinced that they should meet every season. My friends, Texas football stood proud tonight because it was all about toughness. This game was all about guts and the Boys have nothing to hang their heads about, they showed up and gave their best and I am proud of them.

it was nasty. Dallas DTs were big body banging. Wood (safety) showed me something. Jaylon Smith is team leader now. I saw major positives but offense needs total make-over.

We could have won the Super Bowl 23 years in a row, except...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess. That was really ugly for both teams.
Depends on what you want but today's game leaves me cold, I grew up on that kind of game. If you get the chance to watch a replay of that game, just watch the line play, that was war. The only reason I think there weren't more flags is because I think the refs warned them.

Clint, some of the most beautiful football games I've ever seen were butt ugly.

We saw two futilities of NFL offensive football tonight.

This is the Cowboys worst offense since the early 2000’s in Campo era and Quincy.

We don’t have any playmakers on offense except Elliott. The Texans had one more who made the biggest play setting up winning kick.

We’re a 2-3 team a kick away from being 1-4. Not a very good team at this time which struggled against a 1-3 team again.

Can’t win in the NFL if you can’t put up points.
