Nope.  Well, Dak Prescott won the 2022-2023 Interception Title and our kicker broke the record for most missed extra points in a row, but we did not win the game.

But, they're in the running with Washington and Cleveland to win the Super Bowl NEXT year!  So, there is that. :)

How many other teams can claim that their wheel chair bound governor roasted their kicker on Twitter?  

I don't think the Cowboys lost by a point.  It wasn't the kicker's fault (he had half their points, after all).

Score touchdowns and the kicker is less important. Prevent touchdowns by the other team, and the kicker is less important.

But, yes, the kicker was one of the weak links for Dallas in the play offs. Just not the biggest weakness.

Agreed.  The two interceptions were a MUCH bigger issue.  The injury to our running back was a MUCH bigger issue.  Our defense kept us in the game.  Our offense let us down.    However, the missed extra point matterd.  SF got six points off the two interceptions

Every point matters to some degree, but the Cowboys needed a TD to close out the game.  Really a TD plus extra points - either to tie or to win.  They didn't get the TD, and that's not on the kicker's shoulders.

They should be fine getting a new kicker, but that won't fix the other issues you mention.
