Eli vs. Romo have been some of the great games of this era.

Losing sucked, but one thing I kept thinking in the second half was that somehow, we will look back at how Eli almost always brought his A game against the Cowbows, and Eli vs. Romo have been some of the great games of this era. This was another one, almost punch for punch, and, predictably, the team with the most turnovers lost. In 10 years, we will look back at these games with nostalgia.

Somehow, this stuck with me this game.
This game wasn't that close

I agree.

Also, today's game was very close. It came down to who made plays in the 4th quarter. They did, we didn't.

It was 28-14 in the 4th, we scored a TD against a prevent defense and got the ball back down 10 with a minute left and no timeouts.

If this is what we consider a close loss now, man have we hit a new low as a fanbase.
We cut it to 7 with almost 6 minutes to go

That is a close game. One stop and we have the ball driving to tie.
I agree

it sucks to lose, but this was no blow out. We played extremely well in the 2nd quarter, and were in the game with 5:00 left to play.

The fumbles were the result of someone working hard to make an extra yard for a crucial first down - not carelessness or stupidity.

I don't believe we deserved to win, but I do think it was a lot closer than the score indicates.
The game-breaking play  
Ten Ton Hammer : 10/19/2014 9:50 pm : link
was the Donnell fumble that put the Cowboys offense inside the Giant 40.

It was an even game until then. This was no blowout.

This is on point. The game really turned on that fumble.
I don't

Think the Cowboys are that good. I've been saying it. And I believe it. The Giants shot themselves in the foot yet again today. Dumb ass penalties, fumbles, and not passing the ball enough. The Cowboys, are playing better than the Giants right now. But in no way, are they as good, as people make them.

How very dramatic, you sound like my wife. Hahaha
