The Good: Well unfortunately not much here folks other than the Cowboys battled back and had a chance to win. Andy Dalton played hard and showed some guts after his hand got cut and from what I heard needed 8 stitches. The defense once again got two turnovers (they were really gifts from the Giants) and two sacks. Zuerlein made all four field goals and Noosewandy punted really well once again.
The Bad: The Cowboys offense couldn't score touchdowns like they've been doing the last three games, way too many field goals, and for the first time in a very long time the Cowboys offense did not score a single touchdown the entire year on their opening possession. The offensive line played their worst game of the year and gave up a bunch of easy sacks. Andy Dalton no need to throw up a prayer on third down. The defense got shredded yet again looking like they did at the beginning of the year (especially in the first half) and certainly didn't look inspired at all. Randy Gregory continues to get stupid penalties and Xavier Woods you're a jackass as well. The punt coverage team gave up two 20 yard returns and that didn't help the defense.
The Ugly: Mike McCarthy what in the hell are you waiting for? How obvious was the trap, who the hell told you NOT to challenge well that guy needs to be fired. You would have easily won the challenge and the Giant would have had a much tougher field goal attempt or better yet would have punted and guess what that was the game right there. Bone head move by McCarthy and the Cowboy's coaching staff. I really would like to know the Giants came up with that fumble. He ends up sitting on the football and somehow ends up perfectly in his hands, that was the Cowboy's season in a nutshell right there.
Blessing in Disguise: Since the Eagles had NO intention of beating the No Name team it's a good thing that the Cowboys got beat because of draft position and they will pick tenth in this year's draft.
