The Cowboys down 23-14 and seemingly it should have all came unbuckled but it didn't. The Cowboys needed two scores and low and behold they saved Christmas in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex as who needs the man in the fat Red Suit in "Big D".

The Cowboys go 15 plays and 73 yards to set up a 25-yard FG by Dan Bailey. The 'Boys then somehow get the Pig back deep in their own territory and go 87 yards on nine plays for a TD to RB DeMarco Murray (22 car 96 yds TD) on 4th down with just over a minute to go. The Cowboys save their season at least for now and the Eagles/Bears Match Up is on Sunday Night Football. The Eagles now will have to go to Dallas to beat the Cowboys regardless of the outcome on that Sunday Night Game. Romo threw for 226 yards on 17/27 and 2 TDs and INT. Dez of Jordan Brand grabbed 4 Pigs for 73 yards and a Score. Baylor Alum and Cowboys Rook Terrence Williams grabbed 4 more Pigs for 84 yards.

The Game ended but also gave you a microcosm look at the "Nightmare on Redskins Complex" staring RG3 and Shanahan. They were up on the Cowboys an this was their Super Bowl and couldn't close it leading by nine in the 4th. Redskins WR Pierre Garcon had one of hid best days in 2013 grabbing 11 Pigs for 144 yards and a TD. 'Skins QB Kirk Cousins played well going 21/36 for 197 yards and a TD and INT. Big Al Morris ran for 88 yards on 24 carries and a TD.

The Cowboys give them credit they delivered when Santa and the Football Gods had gave up on them. As for the 'Skins...and can't end soon enough...it just can't!
