And ironically our defense held them to zero points the entire 2nd half... Spotted them at least 14 points, technically 21.... Awful.

That, my friends, was a clinic as to how you handle a big lead in the NFL....you burn the clock and play field position.....you go out, button up a game that essentially is in the bag with two quarters remaining. The way Romo was playing, San Fran wasn't too concerned about a big comeback by Dallas or a second half collapse on their part.
Because let's be real....only the Cowboys would've found a way yesterday to blow a 25 point lead.....right?
