AND, with 40-50 seconds left and a timeout, the Cowboys didn't try to get into FG range even though they only needed 30-35 yards.

That particular fade to Keyshawn, which btw is not a true fade, kind of an underthrow fade, has been very effective for us. That's a pretty high percentage for us. The hitch pass on 3-1 was a bad play, but you generally don't call a hitch play as your only play from the huddle. I'd be willing to bet it was a sneak from the huddle, but when Bledsoe saw the defense he checked out to the hitch.
I don't know what you expect when we can't run the ball fromt he 1. If anything, be unhappy that our running game was so pathetic we had to do things like that to try to pick up first downs and touchdowns.
In the end, we gave them 7 points, and still should have won the game. We played a great game, but came up just short.
