With 13 seconds left, no timeouts left and in position for a Hail Mary pass, Cowboys quarterback runs the ball in the middle of the field instead. The Cowboys can’t get set in time for another play, the clock runs out and the Cowboys season comes to an end.

*insert Price Is Right fail horn here* Tough way for your season to end.
The Cowboys love to lose playoffs games in the most dramatic fashions
Cowboys fans trying to blame the ref on this when he has to spot the ball and instead of giving the ball to the ref Dak gave it to the center
Edit: to add, blame also falls on the coach for that god awful playcall. So blame goes all around
Hey Dak you know the ref is the only one allowed to set the ball…..…LOL.
What a cowboys way to end it
I wish they would have shown Jerry Jones’ face at that moment.
Fair play to the ref, either he plows his way through or he has to run around the line, either way cowboys fucked that one up
For those wondering if the ref was in the wrong here, the answer is no. After every play where the ball is advanced, it is the ref’s job to spot the ball. That’s what the ref did here too, and he had to get past the QB to do it. The ref doesn’t deserve blame for what happened here. It’s on the Cowboys, because they’re the ones who called for a run here, when they could’ve taken a shot to the endzone or sidelines, and then done so again if need be.
First 4th & inches and this. Why he run
Wtf were the cowboy coaches sniffing on the sidelines?
Terrible play yes. But the penalties…
Did they just ad-lib the last play of the game? That couldn’t have been the intent — how did they think they’d get set up again in time, regardless of who ran the ball?
Also not the ref’s fault. They blocked him out. Give him credit for trying. He could have walked the long way around.
Dak had money on the 9ers by six.
Cowboys got robbed by the Cowboys.
No matter how low my expectations are, they always let me down. Just basic football knowledge here, not even accounting for all the blatant penalties they committed. I’ve never seen so much talent squandered year in and year out – it’s honestly impressive.
I want to see the disappointment on Jerry Jones face right after that stupid play. r/sadfans
Pain.
I think my favorite part was that on the Nickelodeon broadcast the color commentator was in the middle of explaining what a hail Mary was when Dak started running.
TLDW: We. R. Dum.
100% their fault. I can’t believe he ran that far before sliding.
What a Mike McCarthy, Jerry Jones, and Cowboys way to lose a playoff game 😂

Remember when the ravens vs lions game clock ended but they still let them take the field goal
As a NY Giants fan this was the best ending I could never have imagined – brilliant weekend for me. Cowboys/Eagles/Patriots all lost so I can now watch football for footballs sake
My favorite part was seeing all the officiating team hustling off the field RIGHT away like game over, we’re outta here…
That girl bawling when there was still 5 minutes left was hilarious.
Cowboys are such a joke
And the Cowboys suck again. Nobody is shocked.
Niners tried their best to give the game to the Cowboys and they just refused. False start on the sneak, then playing the softest prevent defense in NFL history, only for Dak to run the ball himself up the middle with no timeouts. Just incredible.
Players cannot spot the ball.
Officials must spot the ball.
Dak spotted the ball instead of tossing it to the ref, and luckily the ref bumped into the O-Line while trying to spot the ball, since it gives Dak some cover.
If the Cowboys *HAD* snapped that ball, it would have been a penalty, and the game would have ended there.
This ain’t the schoolyard…
Bone head move by Prescott.
Change my mind.
I fully believe that Jerry Jones sold his soul to the Devil for his championships in the 90’s. He will not live to see them win another.
That lone star is a rating, not a symbol
