You can't let them score when they need a TD and that would win the game. I understand the sentiment but you can't do that. 2 more stops and we win.

what if we somehow... held them to a FG...

They won't kick a FG now, it's 4 down territory

Giving up the lead on an extremely long drive that kills the entire clock is a Packers specialty.

Excuse my pessimism about this d, but I think it's well-earned.

And in regards to the 2-point attempt, there was no upside either way.

It's totally ridiculous that you have to burn a challenge on plays like that. It's 2017, make use of technology to spot the ball.

What kind of call was that live? They'll overturn it, but still have to make a stop in short yardage against mighty Elliott behind this beefy line.

I think he got it. Where he caught it before bringing it in looked to be at the line.

And now DAL is going to convert and we'll be down a TO.

Why?

He's clearly short. You just let them have the 1st down?

And in regards to the 2-point attempt, that would have led to us winning by 2 instead of 1, or losing by that much. So where was the upside?

It was dumb but a fg would make it a two tds game.
