Dallas choked on a winning field goal that should have been an easy make.

Redskins pick up ball and return it to 45 yardline. But dallas had a facemask on the play when they were the defense (when redskins picked up ball) putting the ball at the 30. Clock was at 00:00, game should have been over and tied. game can't end on defensive penalty, redskins get one more play.

Redskings kicker vanderjagt makes 47 yarder from the 30 to win the game.

wtf? vanderjagt? you mean novak?

Do you have the clip of TO sleeping? If so, would you be so kind as to put that up as well?

That field goal was the weirdest thing i ever seen, it went up and obviously off course but it just nipped the inside feild goal, that was insane.

I know! I thought he missed it badly, and it just slipped in somehow. Novak could have potentially saved his career with that kick.

in a nutshell ...

its 19 - 19

Skins had a 49 field goal attempt with like 39 seconds left and missed it bad.

cowboys make a big 3 and 5 and setup vanderjagt for a 29 yard fieldgoal with 7 seconds left.

the kick is up and the skins block it, taylor recovers it and goes for a big return taking the time to 0 but there is a facemasking clear as day on him (a 15 yarder), which in turn gives the skins 1 more play that is untimed, with the clock at 0.

so novak kicks a 47 yard fieldgoal and it just slides in and the skins win by 3!

Holy carap! I was watching the dolphins SPANK the undefeated bears.

was that during the team meeting? i don't have it, just the last several minutes of the game.

what video do you all prefer? a series of clips consisting of the missed 49 field goal, blocked field goal, facemask, and successful 47 yard field goal or one unedited clip from the blocked field goal to the successful 47 field goal?

i disagree, he turned the dudes head

barely... it was still incidental, and he had no intention of bringing him down with the facemask.

let's just put it this way, I've seen much worse to get the 5 yard variety instead of the 15 yard variety.

Oh well.

yah that's just what happens when it's at the refs discression. typically to me, it seems when you can clearly see the facemask and the guys neck jerks to the side, they deserve 15 yards. the 5 yarders I typically see are more when their hands kinda graze over the facemask and doesn't really affect the players head or anything.

but like you said, oh well heh.

if the dumb ass cowboys had not gone for 2 and just kicked the extra point early on, they would have kneeled down the ball after novak missed his first field goal.

Thanks cowboys! :thumsbup;

blah. I blame Roy Williams and the special teams line.

Roy Williams for committing a PI on a ball that Lloyd did not have a realistic chance at catching and moved the ball some 50 yards to setup up the chris cooley td reception.

then after romo hits witten to set up the winning FG. watch the replay. Even if Vincent didn't block it. half the Redskins line are already on top of the Cowboys line with hands up.

As someone noted above, that was hardly a 15 yard face mask. The refs in other games have let worst go for a mere 5 yards.

LOL no! At some point in the game he laid down on the field, pretended to sleep, and got a penalty for it. I didn't see it so I don't know exactly what happened or why. That's why I was wondering if you had a clip of it.

As far as the end of the game, one unedited clip FTW!

TO and the Cowboys had a chance to bury the Skins, and TO winds up dropping a TD through his hands, allowing the Skins to come back.

That was a FLUKE win and I'm a skins fan. Gibbs demeanor when he went to shake Parcell's hand shows that, but the cowboys lost the game. Hope next week against Philly is a bit better.

Cool ending. I had Wash picked to win. Doesn't look like they'll be winning many more this season though. They got lucky.

Romo is a good deal better than Bledsoe, but will probably make some rookie mistakes here and there.

Sorry for the late reply. I'm having encoding issues... I've encoded 30 second hdtv commercials at 20 megs and they looked great (720p) but for some reason, this stream @ 100 megs, 2:42 at 560x320 doesn't look as clean. it's uploading now and i'll post a link when it finishes.
