THE DEZ RULE

My family and I just relocated to the Pacific Northwest from Oklahoma City in the fall of 2014 thanks to the Navy. The Cowboys were in Green Bay for an NFC divisional postseason game led by Tony Romo on January 11, 2015.

His pass to Dez Byant in the closing minutes of the 4th quarter changed the NFL forever. In addition, Cowboys fans experienced this STRESSOR event that PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Order) results from. A stressor is an event or situation that causes stress

Nine years after the fact I know many of you like me out there are continuing to feel the symptoms of Post-season Traumatic Stress Disorder with America’s Team. How could this league deem it a “No Catch” and then 3 years after the fact say it was “A Catch?” What’s the catch?

Just imagine how things might go this wildcard weekend when the Green Bay Packers come into AT&T Stadium. Mike McCarthy won Super Bowl XLV there in 2011 lest we forget. With the Packers over the Steelers 31–25. Will history repeat itself on January 14th? The “Dez Rule” has entered the chat.
