In Brazil we have a word for what the Cowboys did: botafogar. It's based on a (soccer) football team (Botafogo) which usually does just that (starts super strong, then chokes by the end). It's also nice that it sounds like afogar (to drown). We also have the word (actually an expression) that you didn't find in the dictionary: Paraguayan horse. People also use cheirinho (lit: little smell) meaning the team feels the smell of victory but that's just it, the smell.

Speaking of horses, here's my dark horse candidate: Ben McAdoo. You heart it here first.
