Tough loss, but the Cowboys won with 3 unique plays where if any of them don't go in their favor, maybe they don't win.
1. The heaving hail mary from Romo as J.J. Watt misses what seems to be an automatic sack.
2. The OPI that wasn't called on the TD to Dez.
3. The heaving hail mary to Dez in OT where Joseph had wonderful coverage... the ball just fell onto Dez to set up the game-winning field goal.
Bottom line is that this is a road loss for the Texans to an NFC opponent. The Texans are 3-0 vs. AFC opponents. Their biggest game of the season is Thursday at home against the Colts. Win that, and this can be an interesting season.
Lastly, congrats to the fans who met Ebola risks head on and made the trip to Arlington. I cannot remember a NFL game where visiting fans had such a presence... maybe Cowboys fans at Arizona games during their Lombardi runs in the 90s. These are fans though of a 2-14 team a year ago, not some Emmitt and Troy bandwagonning jock chompers who already live in a state where NFL hadn't existed the decade previous.
