00:00 It's a holiday heartbreak for the Dallas Cowboys as despite their best efforts in Miami, their
00:06 streak of not losing multiple games in a row over the course of two years came to an abrupt
00:12 and late game and a highly anticipated Christmas Eve matchup against the Dolphins in Miami.
00:17 Cowboys leave South Florida with a heartbreaking 22 to 20 loss, their second defeat in a row,
00:23 a second half with both teams trading field goals.
00:26 The climactic moment comes when Dallas gets to the goal line.
00:30 Dolphins initially seem to get a clutch stop and forth down, costly pass interference that
00:34 the Cowboys deserved.
00:36 They could use a call, they'll be the first to tell you.
00:39 That set the Cowboys up to try it again and Dak Prescott hit Brandon Cooks for the go-ahead
00:43 score from eight yards out and maybe the winning score from eight yards out.
00:48 But then the Cowboys made a crucial error that was unavoidable.
00:53 They left too much time on the clock for an offense that is as good as theirs.
00:57 The Dolphins of course come in the number one scoring offense in football, the Cowboys
01:00 number two scoring offense in football and Miami was able to methodically drive down
01:05 the field, setting up Jason Sanders 29 yard field goal, another Jason Sanders field goal
01:11 in this game as time expired, lifting Miami to their 11th win and a thrilling victory
01:17 for the Dolphins.
01:18 Prescott finishes the day 20 of 32, 253, two touchdowns.
01:22 CeeDee Lamb as usual, the hot target, six receptions, 118 yards and a long touchdown
01:28 in the first half.
01:29 Tua for the Dolphins, 24 of 37 for 293 and one touchdown.
01:35 They did deal, the Dolphins did with some injuries, Mostert the running back, Waddle
01:39 the wide receiver, the Cowboys couldn't take advantage of that.
01:43 Superstar wide out Tyreek Hill leads the league in receiving yards by a big margin.
01:47 He caught nine for 99, a gut-wrenching defeat.
01:51 Although the Cowboys are still playoff bound, a gut-wrenching defeat.
01:56 Although the Cowboys still have to figure out the bugaboo as well as they played in
02:00 so many ways of being on the road on grass against a quality team.
02:04 By the way, it did rain.
02:06 So there was elements there as well.
02:08 Now they must prepare to host the Lions.
02:10 The Lions just got done winning their first division title in forever in what is now the
02:15 NFC North.
02:19 And they'll play that game at AT&T on Saturday at home.
02:23 That'll help the Cowboys in a crucial late season matchup again on Saturday night.
02:29 On the Cowboys and the NFL, Fish out.
