2nd and 2 before half

[Playmaker3128]

Was the difference. That's a 6 point swing right there. Yes Dak made a horrible decision, a lot of it is on him.

But for the life of me why in the hell are we throwing there. In an empty set none the less?

Clock management. At the very least you run it there once more and kill clock, or make SF burn another timeout. Even if you then throw the pick on the next play they likely don't come down and kick a FG.

Just horrible. I don't get it.

Throwing to WR ankle was the big mistake

 

[NoLuv4Jerry]

I have no idea why we were throwing the football

Exactly. This wasnt a difficult decision. They have no concept of running clock to score and leave minimal clock before ends of halves.

 

[ak47kaehu]

Exactly what I was screaming for them to do. You have complete control at this point.....manage it properly......run the ball 3 times if need be to get those 2 yards.....but what ever you do.......just don't turn it over like that!

49ers were in zone D. CeeDee should have noticed it and sat in the hole. Instead, he ran into coverage. Dak should have thrown it into the ground.

Yes it was the worst mistake of the game. No question.

 

[tomsanders921]

I would have ran too. But they called a short curl route that should be a gimmie. You don't expect your veteran 40 million dollar qb to throw into double coverage there.

 

[JJ1986]

That was awful. Run the ball! Run the ball! Run the ball!

NOTHING is a gimmie with Quack.

 

[loublue22]

that sequence through the failure to cash in the fumble for a TD was the game. Two red zone opportunities, 3 points, and they never got back

 

[Playmaker3128]

Even if the defense is giving you the pass! you still run the ball there. To come out without a RB in the backfield, what were we thinking. Again. One more run play there and there Is almost no way SF score before half.

Just stupid!

 

[StuckMojo]

At least don’t go to an empty set to telegraph a pass play is coming.

Then Quinn plays prevent and rushes 3 guys to give the rookie time to find receivers and get 3 points.

 

[Calvin2Tony2Emmitt2Julius]

Look Dak Cannot throw those INTS period . I'm not calling for him to be run out of town on a rail. He 's my guy as long as he is a Dallas Cowboy.

He just cannot throw those picks in this game, under those circumstances, these are the playoffs

Boneheaded move on him, I think we definitely bring in some competition this off season, I mean Dak brought it on himself. You can't have lapses like that and expect to win

Ironic, because McCarthy used to beat us because we were doing it back then too.

Something in the water in JerryDome?

Post of the Day. Just sickening...

 

[LucaBrasi]

That was the ball game. 6 point swing and an extra point miss.

Bout as tough and physical a football game as I’ve seen this season. Cowboys made a quantum leap in the physicality dept from last season to this one. Niners made a few more plays, most assuredly holding on to our errant passes, we dropped them. Sucks

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

So now go home and cry in your Dak jersey.

 

[America's Cowboy]

So now go home and cry in your Dak jersey.

Go celebrate in your pink Romo jersey.

 

[Hawkeye19]

Ugly sequence for sure. Play calling sucked the whole game. Bad Dak showed up. Inexcusable.

Hats off to the D. They played hard but got no support from the offense.

PS: plenty of blame goes to the FO for the Cooper trade. We have no WRs outside of Lamb, and they have been trying to atone for that decision all year. And it came back to bite us— as many said it would.
