| Let's see a show of hands of everyone here who thinks we would have seen the onside kick called by the Cowboys' HC. |

Our coach was beat by the Music City Miracle.

| That's a good one ! Too afraid Wade didn't even go for it on fourth and inches in the playoffs . Once his teams are down by two TDs it's game over . A come from behind team they are NOT ! |

| Wade is way too conventional for a surprise onside kick, IMO. The Colts being totally unprepared for that onside kick, to me, perfectly illustrates the importance of coaching and attention to details. |

They actually did fail on 4th and inches also but still gambled later winning the game.
The HC across the aisle kicked FGs instead and lost. Our plight exactly. |

| Good coaching, or the lack of it always shows in the playoffs. It was huge in the Saints win yesterday and has been the punctuation mark on most all of the Cowboys seasons the past 13 years. |

| As much as a critique as I've been of Garrett I believe it was Wade's decision to kick the field goal on 4rth and 1 plus, running the ball multiple times in short yardage situations to the point of failure. That had old school written all over it and I'm willing to bet Garrett wanted to go for it instead of kicking with a bad kicker, and I bet he wanted to mix in a pass on those 4 back to back run situations... |
