Today's goofy NFL note: The Cowboys-Falcons game was the second time an NFL game has finished with a 40-39 score. The first was the Chiefs over the Browns in 2002. Both of them had rather unusual circumstances that led to a game-winning field goal as time expired.
Today's game had the Cowboys' huge comeback and an onside kick that led to the winning field goal.
In Browns-Chiefs, the Browns were hit with a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on the final play of the game because one of their players took his helmet off in celebration during the play, at an apparent game-ending fumble. The first down gave the Chiefs an untimed down and moved the m into range for Morten Andersen's 30-yard game-winner. The Chiefs also came back from a 13-point deficit in the last 10 minutes to win.
