Episode 1.20 – Week 13 Recap / Week 14 Preview

Steven recaps the 37-27 beating of the Green Bay Packers. Brett Favre gets knocked out of the game and QB Tony Romo continues to have a fantastic season, earning him NFC Offensive Player of the Week for the second time this year.

In Cowboys news, the Cowboys vs Packers game becomes the highest rated cable TV show in 14 years. Not bad for a game that was not available to as many people as should have been. Plus Steven gives a preview of the upcoming game between the Detroit Lions. Steven says he would not trade places with Lions QB Jon Kitna for all the alcohol in Ireland.

The Good:
QB Tony Romo: if not for a Terell Owens bobbled pass in the end zone causing an INT by Al Harris, Romo would have been perfect, throwing 30 times and completing 19 passes, 4 of them for TDs. Romo now has 33 touchdown passes making him the Cowboys single season TD pass leader.

The Bad:
2 minute defense: Once again, the Cowboys allowed points right before the half. After taking a 27-10 lead, the defense allowed the Packers to go 74 yards on 8 plays to cut the lead to 27-17 just before the half.

The Ugly:
Finishing Off A Team: The Cowboys need to improve on finishing teams off. They need to get back to that killer instinct they had earlier in the season and put teams away when they have a chance.
