Cowboys lose second straight heartbreaker to porous defense,


If a picture paints a thousand words … well, you’ve got about a million right there. This picture of failure was taken just after Dallas Cowboys kicker Dan Bailey failed to make a potential game-saving field goal for the second straight week, after being iced for the second straight week. Difference was, the icing came from the opposing coach this time, as New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin put the freeze on Bailey with one second left in what became a 37-34 victory for a Giants team that desperately needed it.
This time, defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul blocked the second Bailey kick, and that took the Giants to 7-6, with the tiebreaker edge over the Cowboys in the NFC East. That took a major effort for Pierre-Paul, who had a great overall game, because he was challenged pretty seriously by the man in front of him.
“He’s a strong cat. He was heavy; I couldn’t push him. The second one, I was like, ‘I have to push through the center and at least try to get the blocked kick.’ I gave great effort and blocked the kick. I stepped left and went through the center and the ball was right there.”
You may remember that last Sunday, Garrett mauled the two-minute drill and wound up calling a time out just as Bailey made what should have been a 49-yard game-winner. Given another chance, Bailey failed to repeat the performance. The Cardinals scored a touchdown in overtime, and that was another mirror of the Giants loss — a late defensive breakdown.
Rob Ryan’s Cowboys defense allowed two touchdowns and a two-point conversion to the Giants in the last 3:14 of the game — actually, that period of time took the game down to about a minute, and that’s when Garrett struggled with his timeouts. Again.
But they do got pretty NFL caps from New Era
