What Might Have Been...

So many frustrating plays last night. This is simply from memory and in no particular order.

... allowing Alexander's 20 yd run during the last minute of the game was this defenses way of reminding us that Yes, had we taken the lead, our D was fully prepared to make sure that it wouldn't be for long.

... Newman's golden opportunity for an INT in the end zone. He showed hands of absolute stone on that play. Cost us 3 points I believe.

... TO's drop for a 1st down, though I believe we made it on 4th down.

... the review and subsequent respot of Witten's goal line catch. The right call, but still frustrating.

... Roy Williams in coverage. Nuff said.

... the Terry Glenn fumble. Shame to have this happen to a guy who has been so huge for this team.

... the Witten fumble. Just when we had a chance to get the offense going.

... Aaron Glenn's "almost" pick.

... the Romo mishandle, coming within a half yard of the 1st down on the scramble, Babineaux making a great play from the backside to surpise Romo before he could dive, Gramatica failing to get in Babineaux's way for even a split second.

Feel free to add your frustrations. :)

Carp was only a few yards from MH, that ball was unexpected and thrown hard. I don't blame him.

oh i'm not blaming him, just what might've been

i don't know about unexpected though. he correctly positioned himself in the right place, timed it perfectly. just didn't catch it

I don't think he thought MH would throw it, because he was right there. That's what I meant. Hell I was surprised he did.:)

Well see thats just it. The game is about players making plays.. or not making plays. And sometimes it's hard to tell on which side of the ball to give blame or credit.. like our goal line stand. Was that good D, or did the Hags blow it?

Had the Seahawks lost, how many cut and dry "what if's" would they have had? Not many.

Few bad throws by Hasselbeck.. couple picks.. but thats about it.

When their D needed to make stops short of 1st down markers they did (Barber/Witten). The WR's didnt drop balls. Short yardage, picked it up. Lame secondary didnt get torched.

Meanwhile we're talking bout drops.. both passes and Ints; getting stuffed, putting the ball on the ground, fumbling snaps, etc

You see the pass that hit el dorado on the thigh. He was not even looking for the ball, it surprised him. Wonder what he was thinking about on that play. One of those 'I kinda quit on that play' play from our star receiver.

Gotta love him dont ya!
