I do know this...if this game were in Tampa or Green Bay, the ref doesn't worry abut moving the ball back 1 yard....and if he did interfere with the player, time would have been put back on the clock
Yup

Same ump that was standing over the ball for 5 sec after the fake punt that got us a delay of game. Who knew the ump would sack our QB to end the game.

I didn't understand that play. Was the umpire waiting for the offense to get back on the field when we got the first down? Also why didn't the offense just get back on the line. It seemed more like Dallas fault there.

The umpire spots the ball...not the center. Dak is a 6-year veteran, he knows that you just can't give it to your center like it's a pickup game. If he gets right up and finds the umpire then maybe there is 1 second left. Instead, the ump has to slide through Dak and Biadasz and the game is over.


Well he's not a thinking QB or student of the game. IF, knew that, he would've held on to the ball and he himself hand it to the official. Probably could've slid earlier saving a few seconds.

But bizarre play for sure and a bad ending.

we were trying to get SF to burn a timeout. Looking back, they should have just run the ball as the confused niners were line up 10yds behind the line of scimmage after the play.

When Dak slid.

Go watch every game ever. In none of them will you find it takes a ref 8 seconds to spot the ball.

None!
That umpire was slow walking it for sure. He did the same thing at the end of the half.

Shame on Kellen, McCarthy, or Dak for calling that play in those circumstances.

Inexcusable.

Being frusrated with how long it took the ref to spot the ball is understandable but blaming the refs is for losers.

Shame on the well-paid "leaders" who put us in that position. Calling the QB Draw play there was just stupid. You are banking on 11 guys executing their job and getting back to the line to execute the clock-it play. Dak not getting tackled and defenders laying on him, one of his blockers getting thrown down and having to get up, see the line, and hustle to it, or the Ref cleanly and swiftly spotting the ball.

Shame on the coaching staff not having these guys ready at kickoff. Shame on the culture Jerry has created where players don't fear consequences and have countless holidng penalties, mental errors, dropping the ball, etc.

Three times he interfered against us on the snap. Three times.

Dak or Biadasz should have handed him the ball. END OF STORY.

The ref took the straightest path to the ball despite our battery of morons not knowing what to do.

If the ref went around the o-line you'd be crying that he didn't go straight to the ball.

I agree 100%.

That play was a little risky but, their was way more than enough time for the ref to spot it. The ref running into Dak, was the refs fault, and slowed down the process of spotting the ball. The league should have called down from NY, and said give Dallas 1 second.

That's the risk you take running the ball up the middle with your QB with no timeouts. That may have been the dumbest call I've ever seen.

So in that exact situation and that exact play call came in to Rogers or Brady or Mahommes or even Tannehill, do you think they run that play? Or do they say, “F that, what a stupid playcall and tell the recievers, last play. Get into the end zone and get open.”

The officials were not anywhere near him when he got up.

San Fran was leaving the sideline wide open. Three straight throws lead to big games. Why not try another there?

Zero reason to run the ball there. No one was expecting it because it is an insane call. You don't put your entire season in the hands of the refs who haven't done you any favors all year...and who just caused a delay of game penalty earlier in the game.
Main reason we didn't try it again was because the 9ers were playing the sideline after those 3 throws. I think the issue is Dak should have slid earlier. A 25 yard pass is much easier to complete than at 40 yard pass, so I understand the thinking behind getting closer.

Was the ref supposed to levitate over Dak?
