The disgust should have been directed at the sleepy Cowboy booth and coaches, oblivious to the clock and the referee snafu, prior to the interception. I don’t know if any of these guys have even yet noticed it.

Exactly right, Rita! ........Dallas was in position to probably take the lead near the end of the game. The clock operator reset the play clock at 25 instead of the proper 40 seconds. That loss of 15 seconds resulted in Dallas being called for delay of game and the penalty pushed them into a longer yardage that led to the bad pass. ......The Officials didn’t even notice the clock had been reset incorrectly. They essentially “gave” the game to Philly.
Hmmm... After reading through the comments here, I may have to correct what I posted in #35.
I might have made a mistake by thinking the clock fiasco was on the last Dallas possession instead of the previous one.
I was so chapped near the end of the game that I turned it off after that interception and haven’t watched or listened to any recaps or replays of the game.
btw... Few QBs or Coaches could have had as successful a season as Romo and Garrett (and Orton Sunday), with a team devastated by injuries like the Cowboys had throughout the season.
