What I cannot figure out is what that quarterback run would have done for them, even if it was successful.

 

There were 14 seconds left, and no timeouts, at the 40 yard line. This would allow the Cowboys to take 2, or maybe 3 shots at the end zone.

 

If the running play were successful along with the spike afterwards, this would allow the Cowboys to take only one shot at the end zone from the 25 yard line.

I said the same thing. The run did no good for them since they still needed to launch a Hail Mary type pass to the end zone. By running they screwed themselves out of at least 2, maybe 3 attempts at the touchdown. Maybe the dumbest play call all year.

If you are a 49ers fan how can you trust Jimmy G? Their are times he plays very well but then he makes some really bad plays. He missed some wide open receivers yesterday and that INT he threw which helped the Cowboys get back in the game was a piss poor throw.

QB draw with :14 left and no time outs.....nothing to do with the refs...one of the dumbest calls ever

Agreed.  Even dumber when you consider the 49ers were inexplicably giving the Cowboys the sidelines the previous 3 plays.    No need to get cute.  Take the 10-15 yards out of bounds the 49ers were giving you.  And the delay of game after leaving the punt team on the field following the successful fake killed that drive.  McCarthy is exactly who Jerry Jones and that fanbase deserve.

They changed their coverage for that play though which is why the Cowboys did the QB draw. San Fran had everybody draping the sidelines for that play so the middle was wide open.

They are tossing stuff at the refs...

 

Anyway, McCarthy and OC Boy Blunder need to be dumped from their current employment.

They’re blaming a ref for an extra 2 sec to set the ball. All this anger? They would still need a extremely low % Hail Mary to be successful. Dallas dudes seem to be forgetting they still need a 1 play 50 yd TD

It would have only been 25 yards out if they had gotten that spike in time. I’m sure they also just felt like they were called for too many penalties.
