Incredible.

 

Announcers trying to bend over backwards to put the fault for it on the officials (Aikman I guess), Also incredible.

Listen up Troy, Dak is the captain, he’s out there, he has two choices 1) defer choice 2) make choice (kick or receive)

If he says we want to defend or kick he’s making a choice.

 

He’s a Big Boy, he really needs to know how it works by now and it’s not up to the refs to bail him out or “make sure he understands”.

Why is it the the referee's responsibility to tell Dak he should say defer after he already said "kick" twice. He's been playing long enough to know how this works.

 

I imagine it's probably never come up in Dak's career before. He probably didn't know there was a difference, but regardless, the ref asked him if he was sure, Dak responded by saying they want to defer to the 2nd half and then the ref decided to just ignore that.

 

It's probably not the ref's responsibility to do the ole "Are you suuuuure you want to do that?" thing, but once the ref asked Dak to clarify, he should have abided by what Dak actually said instead of just doing whatever he wanted to do.

The ref gave him a second chance .. and Dak said yes kick-off .. then after saying kick-off twice Dak finally said defer.  At some point .. you have to take the guys answer. I would be fine if they had given it to him, but the Cowboys only have themselves to blame.

Rivers needs to retire 

I really do feel like Tyrod might be better at this point in Rivers' career. Probably not worth benching him at this point though since they aren't competing for a playoff spot anyways. Respectful thing is to just let Rivers play it out this year and then draft his replacement in the offseason.

True. The refs also gave DAL a “ warning” when the hit Allen after a slide. A lot of hand holding from the officials with team Jerruh.

I'm sorry what exactly is your point? 

 

They'd have absolutely no other option if Cody Ford wasn't drafted? Cody Ford has been a bad RT to this point. The Bills would be better served with AJ Brown or DK Metcalf then Cody Ford. Thats not a guess. 


It absolutely is a guess. I'm not surprised that you can't see that, though.
