Froze his own kicker! Amazing!

 

[adam86107]

Holy shit, Dallas really did ice their own kicker hahahahahahaha

Wow....unbelievable. Settling for a 49 yard with damn near 30 seconds left and 2 timeouts. This is why I have said for 3 years that Jason Garrett is an offensive coordinator who out thinks himself and isn't a championship head coach. He drives me fucking nuts. It was getting better because he finally started running the ball, but yesterday killed everything.

On top of that, you ice your rookie kicker? I would just like to know what he was thinking when he called that timeout...an honest question to him... Jason, what was the logic behind that timeout? Did you want to use one of your two "leftover" timouts, did you want to make sure Bailey knew it was suppose to go over the bar and not under, did you just think it would be funny if the guys got all ready to go and you called a timeout?

Good game by the defense, good game by Romo, pretty solid game on special teams but the coach blew it. Glad GB held off NY but man this could come back to bite Dallas. Should be 2 games up on them. Need a win next week.

I know..I'm actually not a huge dick about it because while my grammar is usually pretty good in general, I have a ton of typos.

Things that bother me

that kind of stuff... another thing that bugs me? When Dallas pisses away an opportunity to go 2 games up on New York. That sucks too.

At least you don't have GB in your division.

Or any other consistent team for that matter. lol

Garrett said he was worried about the play clock so he called a time out.


And "our" "are" bugs me. To add to the list.

Garrett should go kick himself in the nuts for not just saying "The guys had it under control, I blew it..I'm ashmaned and a red head."

Garrett said he wanted to make sure that the Cowboys' field-goal unit was settled before Dan Bailey's potential game-winning 49-yard attempt. He was concerned that the play clock was running down, so he called a timeout.

Why didn't he call a timeout to try to run at least another play or two? That was the burning question after Bailey missed and the Cardinals beat the Cowboys in overtime.

"We very well could have taken a timeout there," Garrett said. "We felt like we were in field-goal range. We have yard lines that we use as guidelines before the game. We felt like we were in range at that point. Tony (Romo) had them on the line of scrimmage quickly, so we went ahead and clocked it and used that as a timeout. ...

"You see so many situations where you have negative plays in those situations. We felt like we were in his range to give him a chance to kick the game-winner."

Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones, who criticized Garrett for conservative play-calling after a close loss to the New England Patriots in October, refrained from offering his opinion on the clock management at the end of this game.

"My understanding is, the explanation I got is it was to let time run off the clock," Jones said. "I'm not going to agree or disagree right here. But the point is it was to let time run off the clock."


To settle for a 49-yard field goal attempt by a rookie kicker?

"Just a minute, I'm just telling you what my understanding is," Jones said.

Asked about the situation again later, Jones said, "We had an alternative. We could have run two, possibly three more plays there, but we have a lot of confidence in that kicker. It didn't work. We all would have liked to have had 20 more yards. But that's really speculating as to what we'd have done with the ball."

Garrett expressed no regret about the decisions he made in the final 25 seconds of the fourth quarter.

"Well, we felt pretty good about where we were," Garrett said. "Once you get to that 30-yard line we felt like that was a pretty good opportunity for us."

Bailey's first attempt at the game-winner actually went through, but it didn't count because of the timeout that Garrett called.




Give me a fuckin break...who SETTLES for a 49 yarder. have you ever seen a team say man we're 49 yards out, looks like we're good.

 

[deathroh]

If you're so worried about running a play and losing a couple yards that should probably tell you that you're not in the best situation to be attempting a game winning field goal.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Right away I said why aren't they calling a TO. But I thought it much worse calling a TO before your guy kicks the ball.

I'm still just kind of amazed at the whole thing.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I was thinking wtf though I wanted Dallas to lose so i was happy.

With Forte down if the Lions don't make the playoffs and they keep getting these dumb penalties, some fingers need to be pointed at coaches in Detroit. Ridiculous how undisciplined they are. They are very talented.

 

[tycobb420]

I don't think I have ever seen a coach ice his own kicker. I don't like it when opposing coaches do it b/c it drags things out and rarely works...but I guess Garrett just proved it can work! haha
