Manning just threw his 2nd interception (9th in 3 games) on a throw that he knew he should not have made. I think that all the Colts injuries are getting to Manning and he just doesn't have that connection with his no-name receivers and we can finally see it on the field. In the offseason and off days Manning would practice with his receivers on their free time and because of all the uncertainty of receivers and running backs, his rhythm is off and it is showing up on the field. Also he is getting hurried and hit a lot because of all the injuries to his offensive line. They are still 6-5 (manning is the only reason they are over .500 and in the hunt for the playoffs).
On the other hand of the game, the cowboys look rejuvenated for the 4th strait game. They are 2-1 under Jason Garrett as their head coach and look to be playing for something. Playoffs is not happening for them this year, but they could have momentum into the next season (if there is not a lockout. Cross your fingers). I also like the way Garret is motivating his players and making them do things that marshmallow Wade Phillips would never do. Perhaps the biggest change that we can see is that during Wednesday practice they put on pads and hit in almost full speed. Well done Jason Garrett.
