They called a Draw with no time outs left? That means he needed to get down within 1second of snapping the ball to get the spike off. The OC needs to get fired. Quote
SCBills Posted January 17, 2022 Posted January 17, 2022 They “may” have gotten it off if Dak handed it to the ref. Probably not, but they would have had a split second… maybe it’s close enough where they give them a second on replay. 1 1 Quote

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 could have gotten 2 hail-mary's off if Dak wasn't so stupid. They showed a sky cam of the last play, and the umpire was running as fast as he could to get the ball and set it down; it was a dumbass play considering the time left. 😄 1 1 1 Quote

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 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
Jerome007 Posted January 17, 2022 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

Process Posted January 17, 2022 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

There's no way that call gets made without the approval of the head coach; they both deserve whatever happens to them. It probably would have been faster to just throw a 10-15 yrd dig if you want to use the middle of the field against that sideline D. 26 minutes ago, GunnerBill said: It was the call. Unbelievably dumb. McCarthy insists it was the right call. That guy is a unique mix of stupidity and cowardice. Although I guess it's not unheard of for those particular traits to go hand in hand..... 1 Quote
ALF Posted January 17, 2022 Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) The official has to spot the ball in the correct place not a offensive player. I dislike Dallas from our Super Bowls so this makes me smile. Edited January 17, 2022 by ALF 2 Quote

Cheektowaga Chad Posted January 17, 2022 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

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.
