The
Kicker to this whole ball game The Indianapolis Colts' nine-game undefeated streak ended Sunday at Texas Stadium thanks to Colts Administration, and as always - piss poor officiating. NFL.com wire reports IRVING, Texas (Nov. 19, 2006) -- Maybe the burden of an unbeaten season was becoming too much for the Indianapolis Colts. They sure played like it. Horseshit! Colts played a great game as did The Cowboys who got a free touchdown when Colts Management FAILED to throw a red flag on a should've been a down by contact call. Colts Administration: should have thrown the red flag and challenge what was a down by contact when Manning threw into coverage to Harrison and the football was knocked loose by linebacker Kevin Burnett and cornerback Aaron Glenn. Marvin Harrison had made contact with Burnett as he hit the ground and got up returned it 39 yards for a touchdown. That's 7 points the Colts Management simply handed to The Dallas Cowboys. Piss poor officiating: Manning's pass to Clark was dead on the money. "I got hit in the back. I don't know how it wasn't a call," Clark said. "It was a good ball. He knocked me down and took my place. "That was a big one." The Cowboy's defense outdid The Colts Offense as The Colts Defense outdid The Cowboys Offense. Mistakes - - turnovers and lost opportunities. The teams had traded turnovers throughout much of the first half, with the Colts committing a season-high three turnovers before halftime and the Cowboys committing two. The Cowboys couldn't take advantage of the Colts early turnovers because Indianapolis forced Dallas into mistakes, too. On the Cowboys' first series, Indianapolis defensive end Dwight Freeney sacked Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, forcing a fumble that linebacker Cato June recovered.
Later in the quarter, Colts cornerback Nick Harper
intercepted a deep pass from Romo at the Cowboys 9. On With The Show 1st Quarter Dallas wins toss and elects to receive as The Colts elects to defend the South goal. Cowboy's Ball Colts kicker, Adam Vinatieri kicks 67 yards to Cowboy's 3 as Dallas Wide Receiver, Miles Austin returns the kick and is pushed out of bounds by Colts Defensive Tackle, Dexter.Reid at the Dallas 34. Cowboy's moved the chains once before Dwight Freeney FINALLY got his first unassisted sack and causing Dallas's Quarterback, Romo to fumble as Colts, Cato June fell on the ball for a Colts recovery. Colt's Ball Rhodes ran for a loss of 5 yards as Marvin fumbled a 4 yard pass on their next drive and was recovered by Dallas, Jeremiah Ratliff. Cowboy's Ball "Booger" McFarland stopped Julius Jones for a loss of yardage on Cowboy's first play as Romo threw incomplete and a mere 2 yards on the next 2 plays forcing Dallas to punt. Mat McBriar punts 36 yards to Colts 11 as Terrance Wilkins signals for a fair catch. Colt's Ball
Peyton and The Colts seem to find some rhythm as they
marched down the field manufacturing 4 First Downs with Rhodes having
a run for 9 yards, a Manning sack for a loss of 10 with a fumble yet
recovered by Terrick Glenn. Peyton also did some scrambling and ran
for 8 yards to get one those First Downs. A 13 yarder to Reggie Wayne before Peyton is sacked again in the same series for a loss of 7 and again a fumble yet this time recovered by Dallas. The Colts challenged the play however the call was upheld. Cowboy's Ball Julius Jones ran for 2 as Romo hit Jason Witten for 10 to pick up the First. Julius Jones then ran for 9 yards. First and Ten as Romo threw deep to Terry Glenn as Colts Left Corner Back Nick Harpers intercepts.

Peyton then connected with Marvin Harrison for 8 yards, short 1 yard for the First as Hunter Smith punts it away for 36 yards to The Colts 49 and Terrance Newman is hit by Marlin Jackson for no gain. Cowboy's Ball With 45 seconds left in the 1st quarter Julius Jones ran for 3 yards to go into the 2nd quarter . . .
2nd quarter
Cowboy's Ball
Romo threw for 6, 11 and 4 yards moving the chains
once ending up on The Colts 25 yard line on a 4th and 6. Cowboys
bring out their newly acquired, former Colts Kicker, Mike Vanderjagt
to kick a 43 yard field goal. The ball is snapped and Mike kicks it
away . . . Klunk . . . The ball hits the right upright! Field goal is No Good! Colt's Ball
Peyton moved The Colts from their 33 yard line all the
way down to Cowboys 4 yard line with runs by Joseph Addai of 17, 3, 6
and 4 yards topped with a 16 yard pass to Marvin Harrison. On 3rd
down and 4 to go for a touchdown, Peyton fires it over the middle to

Terrell Owens for a 28 yard gain putting them at The Colts 28 yard
line. With 3 seconds left in the first half, Cowboys bring out Mike
Vanderjagt for a 46 yard field goal attempt. A familiar sight, as he
booted it WIDE right - Field Goal is NO GOOD! A sellout crowd lustily booed the Dallas Cowboys' place-kicker after he missed 43- and 46-yard field-goal attempts. After his second miss sailed wide right on the final play of the first half, Vanderjagt lingered, by himself, near the 30-yard line before slowly walking to the locker room. HALF TIME 3rd Quarter Vanderjagt kicks 63 yards to Colts 7 while Terrance Wilkins runs it back to their 27 for 20 yards. Colt's Ball On Colts 3rd down of this series, Peyton threw to Marvin Harrison when it was intercepted by Dallas's Kevin Burnett who ran it back for a touchdown. Colts 7 - Cowboys 7
Colt's Ball Colts moved the chains once before they were forced to punt. Cowboy's Ball . . . as the Cowboys did the same on their series. Colt's Ball

plays to move The Colts 80 yards down the field finishing it when
Manning found Dallas Clark in the end zone from four yards to make it
a Colts 14-Cowboys 7 contest. Cowboy's Ball The Cowboys moved the chains 4 times before going into the 4th quarter of the game . . . 4th Quarter
Cowboy's Ball Trailing by seven, Romo engineered a 15-play, 68-yard march that bridged the third and fourth quarters and knotted the game at 14 - 14. Prior to the touchdown when Cowboys were facing a 3rd-and-10 from the Colts' 10, Colts, Jason David couldn't keep up with Terry Glenn and grabs his shirt. The penalty gives the Cowboys a fresh set of downs from the 5, and Barber took it in from there. Colt's Ball Colts went 3 and out and were forced to punt. Cowboy's Ball Romo and Terry Glenn hooked up for a 33-yard reception to key the seven-play, 80- yard drive, which was capped by a one-yard touchdown run by Barber. Colts 14 - Cowboys 21 Colt's Ball Manning moved his club right down the field in response, and had two chances to tie the game from the Dallas eight-yard line. Both of his pass attempts sailed out of the end zone, however, and the Cowboys took over and ran out the clock. Colts 14 - Cowboys 21
