HOUSE Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 CNN)The Dallas Cowboys' 2021 season couldn't have ended in a more heartbreaking manner for fans, and they wasted no time in expressing that frustration. Shortly after the Cowboys' 23-17 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday in the NFC Wild Card game, video captured fans throwing trash at players and referees as they ran off the AT&T Stadium field. https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/17/sport/dallas-cowboys-san-francisco-49ers-nfl-spt-intl/index.html 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unbillievable Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) Even if they had gotten the spike off, the Cowboys still needed 40yds 25yds to get to the end zone. They could have gotten 2 hail-mary's off if Dak wasn't so stupid. edit: remembered where Dak had started running, not where he slid.

VaMilBill Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) Terrible. I know there are times when I’ve been so mad at the refs that I would want to slug them in the face, but I can control my emotions and not follow through with it. Same goes for not breaking stuff in my house after a bad call. Dak should be fined though for basically approving violence against officials. Especially being one of the leading faces of the nfl. 3 minutes ago, Over 29 years of fanhood said: No ‘toys’ though? I would never do it. But there is a difference in throwing a bilbo on the field and actively throwing bottles at people.

dollars 2 donuts Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) I stated it in the game thread and I will reiterate it here: It’s weird to say, because it is not our job, but it is our responsibility to eradicate prejudice and ignorance around the league. Because as hard as it is to believe there are still those out there…STILL to this day…who think Dak Prescott is better than Josh Allen at QB. This isn’t just Skip Bayless disease, but an American disease. Please will you help those who need it most with a donation? It’s never too late to save a moron.

HOUSE Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) To many penaties on the Cowboys, they deserved the loss The Cowboys were called for 14 penalties, amounting to 89 yards. a playoff record for the most penalties in a postseason game. ..

BuffaloBillyG Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 They should have thrown the trash at Dak for playing like trash for 3 quarters and then running too far on the sneak. And then giving the ball to his center and not the official for it to be spotted quicker. 3 minutes ago, unbillievable said: Is it still considered a hail mary from the 25? If Mac Jones throws it, yes. That's his max range. 3 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) I mean that might have been one of the most confounding games I have ever watched. Both teams acted like they didn't want to win and repeatedly did everything they could to give the game to the other team on a silver platter, which only resulted in the other team returning the favor. Penalties, ridiculously bad interceptions, drops, poor tackling, wimpy punts, etc... You name a way to try and lose a game, both teams tried it. Almost was upset that one team had to win because to be perfectly honest, they both deserved to lose.

muppy Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) I told hubby after the dallas game those officials are going to need security bigtime. Just being a playoff game and the idea the home town team fans were robbed will rankle and embolden some wahoo to take action..throwing cups and trash yeah I understand it...when I saw the clip I posted I thought they were flinging crap at players.......ended up it being directed at referees makes more sense.

unbillievable Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 It's already settled science that it takes 13 seconds to set and snap a ball with the clock running. That takes into account that the refs are slow to spot the ball, get into position and blow the whistle. Anyone know if that was a called play or just Dak being stupid?

GunnerBill Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) The Cowboys were awfully coached, completely undisciplined and poorly Quarterbacked last night. Their offensive line was atrocious and their big name playmakers dropped balls. I expected the 49ers to win. I thought they would beat Dallas. In the end I am not sure they did. Dallas beat themselves. McCarthy's seat should already be smouldering hot going into next season (in the event he isn't fired today) but as for all those people who wanted to interview Kellen Moore? Really?? There was one young hotshot in a headset in that game last night I'd consider as my next coach if I had a vacancy but that was DeMeco Ryans. He did a hell of a job even as his best players fell like flies. Edited January 17, 2022 by GunnerBill 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 They “may” have gotten it off if Dak handed it to the ref.

SageAgainstTheMachine Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 12 minutes ago, unbillievable said: Is it still considered a hail mary from the 25? I think it's only a Hail Mary if you're just generally throwing to the clump of players in the end zone. From the 25, the receivers would run diverse routes and the QB would target someone specific.

They generally don't whistle the snap active until he gets in position. That would take another 3 seconds off. I thought it was some kind of trick play where Dak was going to lateral or something. 2 minutes ago, Rampage said: I think they get it off if he hands it to him.

unbillievable Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Let's give the ref some credit for sprinting 30yds, barreling through linemen, and snatching the ball from the center, in an effort to get the play off in under 13 seconds. 3 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerome007 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 It was soooo stupid by the Cowboys to do that "sneak turned into a run". 2 hail marys had more chance than one shorter pass. It was legit pissed for the Cowboys when earlier they had a delay of game because the damn empire wouldn't get out of t he way. But on that last play, it's on Dak and the Cowboys, 100%. Rules are clear. Running with no times outs. Spiking the ball with zero seconds left ha ha. Good play selection boys! Both teams seem to want to lose at the end. What a weird overall ending. Not just the very last bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Dak seems like a good dude, probably a heat of the moment reaction. His real issue is he is not a good quarterback. And the cowboys are a mess of an organization. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way that call gets made without the approval of the head coach; they both deserve whatever happens to them.

ALF Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) The official has to spot the ball in the correct place not a offensive player.

Cheektowaga Chad Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) The sneak isn't a terrible play but dak needed to get down after 10 yards. He just kept running Getting the ball inside the 30 or closer to the 30 allows them to run actual plays to the end zone rather than chucking it up and hoping Edited January 17, 2022 by Cheektowaga Chad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to use the middle of the field and then spike and have one shot at the EZ the worst way to do it is with a play where your QB who then needs to organise the formation is the ball carrier and has to scramble himself up off the floor.
