Well that was a masterpiece yesterday we witnessed. A game that the Cowboys should have won, just slipped through their fingers, but not just because of poor clock management. According to Mickey Spagnola of DallasCowboys.com in an interview on The Fan 105.3 today, "They(Cowboys) had the wrong personnel package on the field and were in the wrong defense" at the time of the winning pass play in overtime. What, are you kidding me? Now, is that a sign of a playoff team? I think not! You can not do those kinds of things at that crucial time in the game and with the opportunity to potentially go two games up on the Giants.
What was Jason Garrett and his staff thinking? The Cowboys, however could have put that game away long before the last 23 seconds of regulation. On their first four drives of the game they got into the Cardinals territory and came away with zero points. They had 3 punts and one missed field goal.
This team is not ready for prime time. Garrett must start being consistent about his management style. One play he is aggressive, and then the next crucial opportunity he shows no confidence in his team. I can only imagine what is being said behind closed doors today!
