There's a lot of coaches that wouldn't think of the downside to kicking the fg. Had the Under so I'm glad they ran, but just saying I doubt 100% of coaches would do the same. Even if it's the right thing to do.

just explain to me why did seahawks run one in with 2 score lead not sit on the ball?  That was come down to late moments of that game too . but they try there hardiest there to score and i had the under that game .

And BTW, Lynch scored with 3:00 left in the game on Monday night.

The last time you saw a team take a knee with 3:00 left was... NEVER.

But don't let facts get in the way of a good conspiracy theory ...

Hey guys, now seriously, Tessio has a point regardless how some of you got hurt from that under. I personally had no doubt once the ball was back in Cowboys hands - there would be no more scoring. There never is. The TB coach took the TOs he was supposed to take and the Cowboys made one run play. How many games of NFL did you really watch 'till today if you even had a thought Dallas will kick in the FG. Come on, get serious here...

Which part of "the Seahawks scored with three minutes remaining and the Cowboys took a knee with under a minute remaining" are you not getting? 

I'm here to help.

Who scored that last TD for Seattle?  Was it Lynch?

He's in a contract year.

Carroll is also not afraid to run it up.  Good ole USC days.

the logic makes sense but i'm pretty sure in all of my years of watching football i've never seen a team do that on anything more than 4&2 in the redzone with any kind of lead... acting as if your bill parcells and people who don't understand that are confused squares with no knowledge of the game.

Ok, guys, I was glad the game went under as much some of you were mad it did. But you gotta admit the Under was the right play here and thats how it ended. Some will say lucky, some will say fix. The fact is - it ended up under and if some of you had money on under - and the Cowboys would kick in the FG (absolutely unreal scenario) - you would go nuts why they had to kick in the FG? True? So forget today and focus on tomorrow. I personally had a very good day, nevetheless, I am gonna forget today and focus on tomorrow precisely like some of you who lost - should. BOL

football is not fixed..    There would have to be too many people involved to fix a game, and god knows people can not keep there mouth shut and they get greedy..   if the nfl was fixed it would have all came out the 2nd game they tried to fix..  when everyone that knew mortgaged there houses and took out loans to bet..  cause they are greedy.. you dont think these gangbangers would tell there friends what to bet on and they would tell their friends..     

 could 1 official or 1 qb try to throw a game ???  Yes..  but to say that the Nfl is fixed. and both teams were in on this is a joke.. take your Loss and move onto the next game..
