Watching Alex Barron’s holding foul at the end of th
e game against the Washington Redskins, which cost the Dallas Cowboys their final touchdown and the game, made me and many other fans irritated out of our minds. I, for one, wished I had missed the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys versus Washington Redskins on Sunday, September 12, 2010, since what I saw was one sorry performance from the Cowboys.
The end result of the game was a victory for the Redskins. The first quarter ended with the Redskins leading with 3 points off a field goal. The second quarter ended with a fumble with the Redskins took in for touchdown, ending the half, 10-0. The third quarter, Dallas pulled through for a touchdown ending the third quarter 10-7. Fourth quarter ended with the Redskins defeating the Cowboys 13-7..
The Cowboys had two major plays that decided their fates. The first play was when they went for a play with four seconds left on the clock, which ended with a fumble and gave the Redskins their only touchdown of the game. Their second mistake was when Barron made his third holding foul of the day during the last play, which made the Cowbo
ys final touchdown invalid.
Last Sunday’s game was one of the sorriest performances I have seen. Call after call, bad decisions were made and the Cowboys’ performance was a mess. Hopefully the Cowboys will make up for it this football season and redeem a winner from a loser.
