Hell, a first half TD would have probably done the job.

Dallas has the second ranked pass d and in yards allowed. They are no joke. Tony Romo does not play D.
Can you imagine if Djax had fielded the punt, and than Cousins snapped the ball on first down and avoiding a rush ran backwards 23 yards trying to keep the play alive? But wait than fumbled the ball on our own 7 yard line? Lmao. You say im harping on djax. I feel he is getting a huge pass.

I'm just sick of these last minute situations happening because the team can get its shit together earlier in the game and wasting opportunities given to them by the offense.

I was pissed off about DJax blunder too. But I'm more upset at seeing the 3 takeaways with only 3 points to show for. And I'm more upset at this because:
a) it has happened before, b) the DJax blunder probably won't happen again, and c) the team will very likely again have a similar game again this season.

I can say the same thing about the missed FG by Hopkins.

I agree with everything but in the big picture if we thought this team was "at best" a six win team before the season - well than u have to now still feel that way. This is that team. Dont be so sure about DJax not doing this again either. There are plenty of college teammates and eagle fans that werent surprised in the slightest. Christ he just pulled a stunt similar last week against the Gints. It is a pattern that has followed him his entire career. I thought that he had matured as a Skin. I was wrong. I also mentioned before that of the three turnovers we got points on one. We should have gotten points on another but the refs screwed us. We are about 5-7 players/starters away from fielding a seriously competitive team. A couple of those guys are already here but hurt. Watch what SM does with FA and the draft. We will be damn good next year. All this being said - smile because we still control our own destiny in a true rebuilding year. That is just a bonus. HTTR
