5. Jeff Heath, the kicker and interceptor

I still think it’s cool Heath can kick field goals. Good for him on intercepting quarterback Alex Smith to seal the game. That was Smith’s first interception of the season.

Heath, who was tweaked during the game, helped lift the Cowboys when it mattered most. Thankfully, he didn’t have to kick balls afterwards.

6. The Cowboys defense is who we thought they were?

You know, things go bad when Dallas faces head coach Andy Reid. He spent his coaching days in Philly torching the Boys. If you didn’t have that thought in the back of your mind heading into this game, you sir, are a liar.

Okay, so the Cowboys held running back Kareem Hunt to nine carries for 37 yards. He averaged 4.1 yards per pop with no touchdowns.

The entire Kansas running committee only had 68 yards of rushing.

7. Dak sophomore slump!

Mr. Dak Prescott finished the game with 27 yards rushing, a 95.7 QBR and a 106.8 rating. He contributed to the win with three touchdowns.

Man, that Prescott guy stinks. He’s really having that tough, sophomore slump. You know, critics were so right about his inaccuracy and athleticism. He’s just terrible in his second year.

Said nobody.
