Wow. I thought players knew the ref had to touch it. I mean that’s why players are always running the ball to one in close games/in general. Had they done this, easy 1 second left.
 

They actually tried to set their own ball/spot lol

And Dak should have went down like at least 5 yards earlier and maybe they would have had 1-2 seconds

I could understand the logic of picking up 8 yards. Clock it. Then have a short enough field for your QB to use his arm strength and rifle it into a window.

But Dak ran too far and ate too much clock. 

It's really not worth the risk when all you stand to gain is 8 yards.

You could throw a quick out to the sidelines for those same 8 yards, while risking essentially nothing. Or just go ahead and start taking shots at the end zone.

That's what EVERY other coach in the world is going to do in that situation. I don't even think Rhule would have been this stupid.

So many good things (even though the Panthers are once again on the outside looking in) happened thus far :

Pats get STOMPED.  (F.U. BelliDICK)

Bengals FINALLY win a playoff game after 3 decades (I feel good for their fans as it must've been a running bad-joke for them all this time.  I bet they placed bets on how they would choke this game away).

 

And speaking of CHOKING :

How about 'dem Cowboys?   😂 

How about 'dem "Future Super Bowl Champs" that the league annointed them after they beat up a non-playoff-caliber Panthers team early in the season?   😏

Same old Cowboys....The Champions...of the REGULAR SEASON.

BTW, as I stated in the other thread(which I meant to post HERE), I despise Stephen A Smith but one of the very few things I enjoy about him is his trolling of Dallas fans.

And I'm sure he's all like "Ha-ha" while pointing as if he was Nelson from the Simpsons.

He's going to have an absolute ball with this.

And I can't help (once again) to go back to that broadcast of the Cowboys against the Panthers where everyone was basically sucking their you-know-what.   

Love it when they're all made to look stupid.

Speaking of, has anyone checked to see if Skip Bayless is okay?

Well. They probably weren’t going to get more than 1 shot at a Hail Mary anyway. Those tend to get intercepted.

They were almost close enough where it wouldn't have been a hail Mary. In fact, one more quick out to the sideline that picks up 5-10 yards, and its a decent shot at 1, and maybe two passes. In fact, you could throw one to the end zone, and on the second one, if nothing is open in the end zone, you could throw it to the 5 yard line and hope they can run it in.  IMO, it was an extremely high risk play, which is what it proved to be.

    • We've never seen them outside of the structure of two very well ran organizations I'll give you that. And yes they are long in the tooth. I do think they are more than capable of getting a franchise turned around in short term capacity though. They are by no means a long term solution.
    • You're not making a good-faith argument by blaming literally everything on the quarterback when the defense gave him a fat 38 seconds to overcome its ineptitude, but it seems you're dead-set on blaming him for any problem the team encounters. In this case, it's not warranted. Sometimes it is. But he had no time to throw (pressured on 46% of all dropbacks, an insane amount) and that's simply not all his fault -- particularly when they rush 4 or less and are in the backfield in 1.5s or less. Should we have gotten more than 0 yards? Sure! But he hit a WR in the hands on fourth down and it was dropped. Not his fault. He missed one throw on second down but I attribute first down to a bad play call and third down to poor pass protection. I would've called some quick slants, personally, but it really seems you're saying: - playcalling: Bryce's fault - poor pass protection: Bryce's fault - defensive choking away a lead: Bryce's fault, not the defense - Horn dropping a pass: Bryce's fault It's a great way to garner support on here, because when it comes to Bryce, logic takes such a backseat to context that it's not even in the same vehicle. Plenty of games can be attributed to him. Can't take anyone seriously who solely blames him for that one. 
    • I don't see how you can logically make that argument when the team beat two of the top teams in the entire league during the regular season.  Now imagine the additional games we would have won against absolute tip top competitors like SF and SEA had we had a professional QB.  You can throw any random stat at the problem you want, but the proof is in the pudding.  We all watched it live.  This roster would have produced 13 wins (wins against SF and SEA, two wins against NO, and would have swept the Bucs) and (almost certainly) a #1 seed with a remotely competent QB.  Those were not games where we needed an all star performance to win.  Those were games where a very, very modest stat line would have netted us an easy win. Nearly every measurable aspect of the team would have been significantly improved with a competent QB.
