Kneeling with 55 seconds left in the first half set the losing tone

We have gotten in field goal multiple times with that amount of time on the clock. A field goal there means we are kicking for the win at the end of the game instead of having to go for it on 4th down.

Suppose they don’t take a knee there and instead they go aggressively and have something like a pick six?  I am sure you would have started a thread saying they should have taken a knee and not risked giving New England another chance to score. 

I don’t have a problem with that call. There are plenty of other play calls to hate in that game, especially in the fourth quarter.  This wasn’t one of them.

Romo said as much, "Brady wants the ball back again." With the next kick coming our way and the clear momentum shift it was the right thing to just get to the locker room. No telling what else the refs had in mind to make Brady look good.
