kick and the Dolphins were given possession on the one-yard line with three seconds showing on the clock. Stoyanovich attempted a field goal from that spot and connected, winning the game 16–14 for the visitors. Lett's failed recovery ranked at #3 in both ESPN lists, #3 on "Top 10 Foul-Ups", and #8 on "Top 10 Worst Plays". The most meaningful impact of Lett's miscue, assuming all remaining results were the same, was that it ensured the team's last game of the season had playoff implications. The Cowboys needed a win (or tie) against New York at Giants Stadium to repeat as NFC East champions (and secure the #1 seed in the NFC), with the loser of that game being assured the #4 seed. Having already beaten the Giants, had Dallas defeated Miami they could have clinched the division title after Week 16 as in that scenario they would have held the tiebreaker against New York even if they had lost in Week 17 to the Giants. Ultimately, the play did not derail the Cowboys' title defense, as they won all of their remaining games after Thanksgiving and went on to win Super Bowl XXVIII. Conversely, the Dolphins lost the rest of their remaining games and did not qualify for the playoffs. In 2008, the game was named the third-most memorable in the history of Texas Stadium by ESPN. Coaching career Lett started his coaching career in 2009 as a volunteer assistant at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. On May 9, 2009, Lett graduated from UNLV with a degree in university studies and a concentration in sociology and history. On December 19, 2009, he was appointed defensive tackle coach for the University of Louisiana at Monroe. On March 31, 2011, he was invited as part of the NFL Minority Coaching Fellowship Program to assist Dallas Cowboys defensive line coach Brian Baker during training camp. On July 20, 2011, he was hired as a full-time assistant defensive line coach for the Cowboys. Lett was among five Cowboys coaches fired at the conclusion of the 2022 season.
