Vick threw the TD to Maclin, then on the next possession Romo threw that INT, which was returned to the Cowboys 15?

I felt like crap, and started to let the doubt creep in. I also thought it was a stupid idea for Wade to challenge it, since the angles that I saw didn't show conclusive evidence it hit the ground.

Anyways, from that point on, the game completely turned around. We scored on that drive and went on to outscore them 27-0 over the next two quarters quarter+.

But for a moment there, it felt like it was the old Cowboys...

i honestly didn't care.

you're not going to shut out the eagles forever and any given score doesn't mean we're gonna go fetal.

Every winning team catches a breka at some point.

It was a fluke. Jenkins slipped. Otherwise he might have been able to make a play on the ball.

i was thinking back to the giants games where we controlled possession but big plays and turnovers killed us.

+1.

I also felt bad about the first drive that basically had the effect of a turnover after the penalties and sack pushed us so far back. I knew we were the better team but we were missing lots of opportunites for points and we had just given the Eagles a touchdown and then great field position. Fortunately the call was overturned and we rolled from there.

For what it's worth...I thought we were going to fold.

This team hasn't shown guts since like '95

I'm proud of the way they responded, fought, and didn't quit like they would have before. Today is a good day to be a 'Boys fan fort the first time in a while.

I felt EXACTLY like you did, TC. I was telling my Dad "Same old Cowboys, this team isn't any different."

Man, was I ever glad to be wrong.

Honestly? I was worried a little. But I felt our defense would still win the game for us. Philly's blitz was putting pressure on Romo early and sometimes you have to hurry the throws and I thought that was what was going on. But I feel differently about this team.

I thought even if they scored off the int, I still felt like Dallas would win.

When Romo threw that pick I was sick to my stomach. I thought, here we go again ... But when it was overturned and we drove it down the field, I'll tell you what, there's no better metaphor than that drive to describe how we've changed this year.

Yes, I was a little worried... but come on... these are not the same Cowboys. I never thought that for a second.

I really wanted them to destroy Philly. I didn't want any bumps on the road, I wanted total domination. The whole time I was thinking back to the 44-6.

I was a little concerned, but my faith was not shaken. I certainly felt a lot better once they overruled the INT, but I knew that this is not the same old December Cowboys. That team is dead and buried, and this phoenix from the ashes has got more opponents to burn.

I saw the usual suspects fleeing the bandwagon at the first sign of distress.

This. I was very disappointed in what I thought was an interception, but I felt like the defense had a chance to stop them and our offense would come back and score even if we didn't stop them.
