What a game! For those of you who missed it, you missed one of the most exciting finishes NFL history. The heroes of this game go to Lofa Tatupu and Jordan Babineaux (shown right). Although Babineaux was blown up in the 2nd quarter, giving up a Cowboys TD, he redeemed himself by making a great TD saving tackle, one that saved the game and season for the Hawks. As for #51, he played like the Pro Bowl linebacker he is. One of the plays came late in the game when the Cowboy's Terry Glenn fumbled the ball in the endzone. The ball which was inches from dropping out of bounds was put back into play by a diving Tatupu. Although the play was called out of bounds because of Tatupu's foot barely touching the line, it was still a great effort which also set up a Seahawks TD. The next play came late in the 4th quarter. On 3rd down and near the endzone, Tony Romo completed a pass to Jason Whitten near the first down marker. Tatupu then made a great tackle, stopping Whitten just short of the first down marker.
No doubt was this another season saver because if Whitten had made that first down, the Cowboys would've been in total control of the game. This was an awesome game that must be credited to the Hawks for sticking together as a team. Having the 12th man and lady luck on our side doesn't hurt either. Go Hawks!
