Everybody played well except for the secondary. As far as the field goal on 4th and 1 goes, it had the distance and was just barely wide left. Gibbs was testing Suisham to see what he had in case the game came down to a long field goal situation, and he proved he has the leg and was only about 1 yard wide. In hindsight I would have loved to see them go for it, but at the time wasn't a bad call.
No player should ever get 4 td's on us. Shawn Springs looked ridiculous out there, and we should have just played without a safety at all on that side and it would have been the same outcome. But overall the rest of the team played VERY WELL, JC was pretty damn good, Santana is back, marion Barber didnt even have 40 yards and he is one of the toughest runners to bring down. They just exploited our weakness as much as they could and they won because of it. We are stronger for it though. Let's get ready for a tough tampa bay team next week and put oursleves in position so that next time Dallas is around on Dec. 30th the game means something, like playoffs!!
