I thought the ground couldn't cause a fumble? It looked like he was stretching the ball out when he hit the ground. Why wasn't the play dead when his knee was down? It that's not ruled a fumble would the spot of been a 1st down? It's hard to fumble in the NFL, the rules make it that way, I'm surprised there wasn't more scrutiny that he was down by contact.

I don't think they actually ruled it a fumble. He was down at the 2 and the 1st down was inside the 1.

He was down before the first down marker.Comment

Correct. It wasn't a fumble. He didn't get the first down. That's what made that tackle so incredibly good, and the whole play and scenerio leading up to it so amazing. Romo was about 1/2 yard short of the first down.Comment

As I suggested in another thread, the Gods wanted it this way to punish Romo's "tragic flaw" of pridefulness.. Had Romo been tackled well short of the 1st down/goal line, he wouldn't be suffering nearly as much... and thus, much less enjoyment for the Gods!Originally posted by YourPalChrisMal

what struck me is that the game ended the same way as their last game of the season against detroit. tough way to lose.Russian reporters to Bobby Clarke: Can you imagine hockey without fights?

My favorite part was that for a split second, he actually thought he was going to score. Then reality hit him from behind. Priceless.I have never done steroids. Period. Well, not today, anyway.Comment

Talk about a game of inches...
the foot that just barely was out of bounds on the endzone fumble recovery.... just short of the first down that would have given them a chance to score a TD or run the clock down..... just inches short of the first down after the botched FG run.PedroComment

It sure is nice to watch this kind of stuff happen to other teams besides the Eagles. We've had enough of crap like that.FRESH > cancer
I hate everything the Cowboys stand for. If you think they are America's team, then you support everything that is wrong with America. The excess, the greed, the lack of maturity, the lack of responsibility, the lack of control. - Luzinski's GutComment

Felt sorry for Romo yesterday, but agree more with this now. I saw the link to the Dallas message boards, one of the posts kept going on about "Hold your head high, you're part of a great football legacy that has gone to the Super Bowl eight times, we will return to greatness, blah blah blah..." Their fans could use the humility and the reality check.Originally posted by Blitz"Philly fans are great....It's the only place where you pull up on the bus and you've got the grandfather, the grandmother, the kids and the grandkids - everybody flicking you off.

Funny. I guess we'd be saying the same thing if we were them, but still...yes, they have gone to the Super Bowl 8 times, but how many people can remember any of them anymore. They haven't won a play-off game in OVER TEN YEARS.Originally posted by balto-eaglefanComment

After watching the replay of that FG I am actually amazed that Romo didnt get the 1st down and secondly how the defender who was blocked (although by the kicker) got around the block and still made the tackle. It was just unbelievable. I actually did feel sorry for Romo for about 3 seconds then I returned to normalcy!!I miss Philly!Comment

I didn't feel "sorry" for Romo. He wears the blue star on his helmet. No one feels sorry for Eagle players (much less Eagle fans) when fate and chance strike the collective heart of the Eagle Nation. I wouldn't celebrate the Cowboys gaffes and rejoice in their misery. No point in tempting fate.
Romo's not a bad guy, he just plays on the wrong team...Comment

Seeing it again, it looks like Gramatica couldn't do much to block for Romo because of all the chaos. Plus, let's be real, he's probably no David Akers.
And Seattle would've still had about 1:15 left to try to get downfield against Dallas' swiss cheese secondary.
Still........
