Here is what I wrote Sunday:
I have to put some of the blame on the failed field goal on Martin Grammatica. The Cowboys have the tiniest kicker in NFL history. If Grammatica was just a little bit bigger then maybe he slows down Jordan Babineaux just enough so that Romo can scramble for either the first down or a TD. Watch the replay and see how Babineaux just runs by Grammatica without slowing even just a bit. Just saying but no way Babineaux gets by Adam Vinatieri so easily.Here is what Peter King wrote in his MMQB column today:
Dallas fans might always wonder what would have happened if kicker Martin Gramatica had gotten a good block on Babineaux amid the chaos of Tony Romo's muffed snap on what should have been the game-winning field goal. Go back and watch it again. Romo picked up the ball and began running around left end. Gramatica made a feeble and wimpy attempt to block the 200-pound Babineaux, who shucked him aside and sprinted to catch up to Romo. Babineaux took a full dive for Romo at about the five, with Romo on his final stride or two for the end zone, and shoestring-tackled him a yard and a half from the end zone. Great effort play by Babineaux.
