I'll give him credit for a great game plan and good play calling early, but that reversion to taking his foot off the gas nearly lost the game.
Except that didn't happen.

The first drive was 5 called pass plays and 3 runs. The INT killed that drive. Then Dal scored a TD to be down by 8

Next drive was 3 passes and 1 run. Then Dal scored another TD to tie it.

MM didn't take his foot off the gas, Rodgers made a bad throw and the Dallas D played well. Throw in some bad defense on our part and boom, the game is tied. Rodgers doesn't miss Adams, that was a TD and the game is likely over at that point.
