Very easily could have gone the other way, hindsight's 20-20. Thought we should have brought in more competition but McCarthy's showing why he's the NFL coach and we're not. Luck helps too, and I'm glad we're on the good end of it in this regard.

Now, I didn't see it but the Cowboys radio network claimed Crosby fell to his knees believing he'd missed until his teammates mobbed him.

Anyone see that?

He looks like he is about to clap his hands after he made it.

Thanks for the pics... I gotta say that Dallas and it's radio team and post game guys are among the worst I've ever heard. Brad Sham incorrectly called the FG no good and then had to ask around and correct himself that it was actually good. That's totally embarrassing and something unacceptable on public access cable. Babe Laufenberg the color guy is as bad at that as he was at QBing in the NFL. Honestly, it's one of the worst listens ever and I come from a sports broadcasting background.

The post game show led off with the fact that DAVANTE ADAMS broke their hearts by making an incredible catch along the sidelines to set up the GW. 2 guys had to correct him so he understood that was actually Jared Cook. Amateur hour. No wonder they got it wrong saying that Mason thought he'd missed it. Sounds like a projection...I think all of us thought he missed it at the point it was going left?

That would be a good topic... Who thought Mason missed the GW as it was spinning left? I sure did. I was absolutely stunned it went through. It was so much sweeter that it went through because I was all disappointed thinking he missed the 2nd attempt and the TO worked on him.

I like this one:

Back to your question about the FG- I thought it was going wide left. Then I was amazed it seemed to change course. I was pretty sure it was inside the uprights but I waited for the refs to make the call. Along the same lines as the bad call, I had the ESPN Gamecast on my computer. When I glanced down at it, it showed Dallas scoring the GW FG for about 15-20 seconds.

No...I was listening to good ol' 105.3 KRLD, the Cowboys Flagship station. Brad Sham and Babe Laufenberg and then their post game. I didn't listen to their broadcast, but I heard the final call replay in the post game that I only tuned into to hear the whining and excuses. It was fantastic.

Favorite moment...A guy called in and said he wasn't a Cowboys fan and they HUNG UP ON HIM and CALLED HIM A TROLL!!! Hilarious. He didn't say anything obnoxious but they were in no mood to hear from non Cowboys fans. They were devastated. I thought it was as childish as it gets. More amateur hour from the Cowboys radio network. Pathetic.
