The call and whistle should have gone the other way, but they didn't. Good teams, no matter whether it is us or someone else, overcome bad calls, poor plays and even turnovers.
A good team can overcome a call just like that one. Green Bay could have stiffened up and stopped us.
A good team could even overcome marching down the field, throwing a gimme touchdown pass to salt away the game only to gift wrap an interception and walk away empty handed. Only a good team could do that.
We grew lax in this game and allowed GB to get back into it. Let's say that GB scores on that next series taking full advantage of the turnover. Do the Cowboys then lay down? Or, do we get an even greater sense of urgency and put 50 points on them? Does TO get upset and level Harris on a block that frees up Barber to take it to the end zone on the 3rd and 1 play? Does the popcorn guy get upset over the turnover and over salt the fateful box that TO pours into his face eventually blinding TO and thus putting him on the sideline so that Stanbach has to replace him and then Stanbach goes buck wild rocketing him on a career that makes him a first ballot hall of famer? (intentional run-on sentence)
We won. I'll leave the moral victories to the losers.
What if, could have been, should have been....whatever.
We're 11-1 and I'm enjoying it to the fullest.
