Cowboy up: Hamlin accepts blame for loss

Dec 21, 2008 - 3:56 PM IRVING, Texas (Ticker) -- Willis McGahee and Le'Ron McClain didn't see Ken Hamlin during their lengthy scoring runs on Saturday.

After the Ravens' 33-24 triumph, Dallas Cowboys free safety Ken Hamlin apologized for being left out of the picture.

"I'm shouldering all the blame, I don't mind it," Hamlin said. "I feel like I had the opportunity to make plays to give us another opportunity to go our there and I didn't live up to that. I'm definitely disappointed in myself, disappointed in my play and I'll be hard on myself about this game.

"I know I play free safety, there's no one else behind me. I know I need to make plays and I didn't. I didn't play a good game and didn't hold my weight. With our offense doing what they did, scoring their at the end, we've got to make a stop and give them the ball back and we didn't."

McGahee recorded a career-high 77-yard touchdown run late in the fourth quarter and Pro Bowl fullback McClain rumbled 82 yards for a score with 93 seconds left to seal the win.
