I was fine with the field goal. The issue was not handing off to Rashad Jennings on third down. Also, Manning snapped the ball at 20 seconds on a play that drive (after the ref kept asking the play clock to be reset).

Ok, well you are wrong. The FG is a terrible decision. Its not really any harder to score a TD off of a kickoff than it is to get a FG from the 1. Not to mention a FG doesn't beat you and you have an over 50% chance of basically ending the game right there.
Its very very stupid.

Man, I can not disagree with this more. That scenario drives me bats. Up by 3 a FG does basically nothing. It is literally the only score where that is the case. I've seen it too many times. If you go for it and miss Dallas has to drive 94 or so yards vs 75-80 to get a TD but once they get into FG range, the will more than likely go for OT, whereas down by 6 they have no choice but to go for the TD and the TD beats you either way. You gain no advantage scoring wise and give the other team better field position.
