Championships are made from just one play.classic cowboys that this dumb play is distracting from the 59 minutes of bad play before it
With 14 seconds left and the ball at the 49ers 40 yard line, that was enough time to attempt 2 Hail Mary's. That would have been the smarter thing to do: gives you 2 shots to come down with a game-winning TD pass in the endzone.
I think Romo called it right in real-time -- Dak needed to hand the ball to the ref instead of trying to snap it. The ref had to bump Dak and the OL out of the way and place the ball -- that took 2 seconds.
That's the Cowboys way... death from a thousand self-inflicted cuts.it's the little things that separate winning from losing
the cowboys post season finale was death from 1000 cuts
here is actual play after TO
Doesn't matter. the team was so inferior to SF . Dak is clueless in clutch play time. MM is clueless in game and clock managment. Need a new regime starting with the coach.
What was it jimmy said about dumb football players?It was not a terrible call it was just executed improperly.
If you want to talk about dumb plays then by far the dumbest play of the game was the Randy Gregory two-arm takedown holding penalty the previous drive on 2 and 9 with 1:38 left on the clock. If he doesn't take down the O-lineman the Cowboys get the ball back with about 1:30 left on the clock. Instead, that gave the 49ers a first down and we get the ball back with :32.
Gregory wasn't even trying to make a play. I can't figure out why in the world he just tackled the guy away from the ball especially in that situation.
That's the definition of football dumb!
This.Warner would have tackled him if he tried to run out of bounds.
It was a dumb play call but he was supposed to slide after 10 yards, not 15.
here is actual play after TO
now to me it looks like everyone thinks this is a pass play, and that dak just decided to run
it wasnt a called play, it may have been an option, but no one knew he was going to run it.
same thing here they are all turned around expecting a pass and it is only explanation for what pollard does.
But him and noah should have ad libbed and blocked those 2 on outside and maybe dak takes it to sideline, otherwise run down field and block someone !
heck who knows, with some blocking by the cowboys who just did nothing, maybe dak goes to endzone.
ok here what is pollard doing?? what is noah doing?? LOL block those 2 guys !!!!!!!!! what is shulzt doing down lower, his day off? lol this is
pitiful. also note that martin is holding on the guy in middle where 3 guys are blocking 1, and he almost gets dak, should have been a holding call there.
here below is where dak had the guy turned, now cut back outside to sideline!
you can see martin holding 91 arm. pollard still in a daze doing nothing, and noah is I dont know wanting to block the guys coming up from
way down field?? how dumb are these guys, and does it look like they practiced this play?
here pollard and noah still doing nothing lol and dak commits to going inside.shultz just watching
All I see here is a lackadaisical effort,by the receivers and pollard, and poor planning and execution of this play. he could have got out of bounds easily, or possibly go all the way.
this umbrella isnt geared to stop a run play with good blocking.
2. We throw 2 hail marys and hope for the best.
