This was a meaningless game. The Dallas Cowboys could not change their playoff situation one whit. The New York Giants could only affect their draft position. The biggest priority for Dallas was to protect banged-up starters and not get any significant injuries. It had all the makings of a dull, conservative contest.
Color us completely and absolutely wrong. It was exciting, and in many ways totally out of character for the Cowboys as they traded leads down the stretch before coming away with a 36-35 win.
Here are some lessons we (maybe) learned.
