“My Soul’s Crushed”: Skip Bayless Breaks Silence on His “UnMerry Christmas” as Dolphins Beat Cowboys 22–20

One of the most anticipated matchups of this league was held on Christmas Eve at Hard Rock Stadium. Skip Bayless, who is known for predicting the results, once again voted for Miami, despite being a Dallas Superfan. Although his prediction was set to 30-24, the Miami Dolphins won the game with a score of 22-20 against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

The Cowboys have a stronger defense between the two teams. However, the Dolphins boast one of the most powerful offenses in the league this season. And the same was seen in the Week 16 game. As a result, the Phins clinched the victory, opening their door for playoff berths, and turning the predictions of Bayless true, consequently crushing his Christmas fun.

Skip Bayless’ head-over-heart prediction turned out to be true!

Before the matchup, the sports columnist Skip Bayless tweeted, “Not much hope tomorrow for the Cowboys in Miami as Tyreek returns. I’ll be ecstatically shocked if they win. But head over heart: Miami, 30-24.” Subsequently, the result favored the host. The Phins won 22-20 over Dallas. After this loss, Cowboys’ disappointed superfan Bayless dropped a video again on his Twitter, saying, “My Cowboys predictably lose to the Dolphins 22-20. My soul’s crushed once again because my team took the opening kickoff for once without deferring and drove it all the way down to first engulf.”

He continued that although it was a promising start for the team, the predictable play calls led to frustration. Bayless even mentioned CeeDee Lamb’s performance. He pointed out that Lamb had a strong first half with nearly a 100-yard in receiving. But in the second half, the team struggled to involve him, managing only 18 total yards. Bayless sees this as indicative of broader issues with the team – a loss of confidence, spark, spirit, and direction, particularly at a critical time.

He captioned the video with “UnMerry Christmas to me. Scrooged again,” and went on to express his doubt, in the video, about the team’s ability to win against the Detroit Lions in the upcoming game on Saturday, December 30. Nevertheless, the Sunday game was quite interesting as both teams gave an equal competition to each other.

A quick recap of the last moments of Dolphins vs Cowboys game

In a close and competitive game, the Phins secured a 22-20 victory over Dallas. The game winning moment came when Miami kicker, Jason Sanders, who had already made three 50-yard field goals earlier in the game, successfully kicked a 29-yard field goal as time expired, securing a two-point win.

Despite the Cowboys rallying from a nine-point deficit in the 4th quarter and taking a late lead, Miami managed to march down the field, control the clock, and set up Sanders for the decisive field goal to seal the victory. The game featured notable plays, including a 49-yard touchdown pass to CeeDee Lamb in the 1st quarter and a crucial touchdown catch by Brandin Cooks in the fourth quarter, putting the Cowboys briefly ahead.

Ultimately, the Phins’ resilience and Sanders’ clutch performance secured the win in the final moments of the game.
