It was close and I almost regretted my earlier post from late Sunday night, but something in me knew the Cowboys were ready to win. I knew it all depended on our offense being able to give Romo enough time to pass the ball and that we needed to score each time we possessed the ball. It was a heart stopper when Domo Romo (Domo- Japanese for "thanks") gave up 14 points in under a minute. I was so angry, but I knew it would somehow be okay as long as the team pulled together and did not start arguing amongst each other. Which is exactly what they did; they kept their composure and came out with the "W". The Eagles are good, but it still should have been a bigger lead for our 'BOYZ versus them (Eagles). It still goes back to Romo's foul up. Yes, when he screws up he really screws up big, but at least it occurred early on in the game for him to make up for it. The last major screw ups ala Romo the past two seasons just happened to catch him (Romo) with little to no time to make a come back. Even Romo himself after the game told the ESPN field reporter that when he found himself caught in the end zone trying to run after the loose ball and ended up letting Philly score a TD, he thought to himself...'I suck'. That endeared him to me, personally, as I have been very critical of his non-chalant ways of handling his/their previous screw-ups. Good to hear him take accountability and not say 'we're just having fun'.
Now Dallas just needs to take this season one game at a time. The league (NFC, AFC) is good and our own conference (NFC East) is very, very strong and competitive. Even though I say that he Eagles and Redskins are the worse in our conference...they are still tough contenders; it is awesome to see that the worse 2 teams in our conference still rank very high in the entire NFL. Pundits and myself agree that this makes Dallas and New York the best in the NFL with the "BOYZ leading the way.
Now the Dallas Cowboys need to show the world they can win a playoff game and more...si se puede!
