crossing route is to have four d,and a haav seconds. watch the line. nobody is close. now we have time for the crosser to come across. the next one takes time as well. no one at the feet of drew brees at all. watch the job by this offensive lin. big credit to armstead. he cou dn't even walk at the end of the first half. >> al: at the 17 yard line that wasle coleman's fist catch of thnee night. down to the 14 goes ingram. the cowboys will take another time-out. they don't have to. le coleman making one catch. you evve a guy named nead. i'm sure everybody has snead and coleman in their fantasy

snead caught six tonight for 89 yards. brees trying to pull one out at the end. >> cris: jason garrett thinking i want at least, whatever, 15 seconds. some chance going back the other way or they will run it down inside of five. take a shot for the game winner. pretty masterful by brees. no time-outs. so calmly taking them down the filyeld with the answer. >> al: ingram able to slip a tackle in the back field. play at the 12-yard line. and dallas. going to take a time-out.

>> referee: 30 seconds. >> al: third down and if you are new orleans you're almost compelled to try -- i telle you what. this is the dangerous th g f. you run this play and it's 4th wn y uusan't upike it. you have to get the field goal unit out there. >> cris: no way. you have to kick it at this point. al: - ,000ll% at t s point you have to kick it though dallas will have time left on the clock. they would like to milk it to ro but chey can' >> ris: jason gar tt had time-outs remaining and he'll at least have the opportunity here. >> al: a 30-yard attempt. drescher the snapper. mccown the holder. hocker the kicker. dallas has an extra point block. kicked. hits the upright. no good. it hits the upright. >> cris: can't return it. >> al: you can't return it.

the play is dead. the play is dead. it hit the upright. that's the end of that play with 12 seconds. 30-yard field goal. no good. >> cris: that hit the upright like a pete rose single. dead solid. i thought it might kick over just enough. it was on the inside edge. that ruined the party in new orleans. >> al: at least for the moment. we'll wind up going to overtime. crazy stuff. san diego today. tie game. ended the game. missed a field goal. cleveland was off side. le second chance. win it. >> cris: they say there is no way to practice for the pressure of making a three-foot putt to win the masters. no w

to practice for the pressure of a game-winning field goal. some people can deliver. some can't. >> al: we go to overtime. we veal a coin flip. we'lle see who wins the toss and who gets it. each team has the opportunity to have the ball once unless the am receiving scores a touchdown. the defense wiepds up with a touchdown or safety f. the teams are tied after one possession each t next score wins the game. the game can end in a tie after min utes. two time-outs. all reviews from the booth. no challenges. a field goal on the first possession would extd e game. uch of a first possession would end the game. if you don't score at all on the first possession. >> referee: each team will have m the opportunity to possess the ball unless the team first

thouere is a safety. we'll use fourth quarter timing rules. two time-outs for each team. reviews from upstairs. the field is heads. the rib bob is tails. tols, your option. >> tails. >> referee: the call is tails. it is heads. new orleans. yoll, will receive. you will kick this way. new orleans, turn around. good luck. >> al: instead of the game end ing with a field goal it ends with a doink as coach madden likes to say.

as he ran down the field on your 400th touchdown pass? >> i knew nobody would catch him. it was only a matter of time before he made toyota the end zone before anybody else. it was a great effort on his part. our team just responded after missing the field goal. just knowing they could take care of business again. believe in one another. we need ed the fist win bad. no better way than on sunday night football against the cowboys. in the manner in which we did it. it would make uts a stronger team. we got better today. >> you said we are working our tail off to get our season going. it is just one win. how does it get your season going? >> we had to earn it on both sides of the ball. all the way around. these wins strengthen you. they bring you together. help build confidence. we have had tough losses. probably been on the other side of these games.

together, got a win. hopefully this results in many more. >> michele: i don't know how much you will tell me about this. how did the shoulder hold up? how are you feeling? >> it felt fine. felt good enough. got the job done. we're all good. >> michele: congratulations, drew. >> thank you. >> michele: let's go to the man of the hour, c.j. spiller. you made the catch. what did you see ahead? >> nothing but green grass. i thank god. i stayed with it. i told the guys there would be ups and downs throughout the game. had to put the good plays and the bad plays behind you, focus on the one play. me and drew talked about catching them in a certain look. congratulations to him. that was the 40 09 touchdown pass. a tremendous leader, tremendous person. i love him to death. >> michele: you're in the

drew brees is back. looks like he wasn't. on the other side. haven't been able to hold it in the second half. i'm not sure how they win without tony romo. now the defense is not strong enough to hang onto the lead. maybe getting some of the defensive players back. getting greg hardy can help them generate pass rush. really disappointed in the defense. not being able to hold the leads. >> bob: now to mike florio. you had a lot of info earlier on philbin's status with miami. anything new? >> mike: the owner is expected to decide by monday. there isn't an obvious candidate to take over for the final 12 games. working against philbin, stephen ross is committed to convincing key players on the roster that
