'I really don't want to get into the detail of it, but that obviously wasn't the plan,' Dallas Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said after Sunday's game. 'It's obviously a gadget play or whatever. It's a last-play-situation call that we practice.'
After Dallas crashed out of the divisional round of the NFL playoffs Sunday night with, media and fans scrutinized the final snap of the game, a gadget play in which the Cowboys lined up running back Ezekiel Elliott as the center and had offensive linemen out on the far ends of both sides of the field.
"Yeah, it didn't get going," McCarthy said after the game."I really don't want to get into the detail of it, but that obviously wasn't the plan. It's obviously a gadget play or whatever. It's a last-play-situation call that we practice."The play came with six seconds left in the game, with the Cowboys 76 yards away from the end zone.
Instead, after Elliott snapped the ball, he was bowled over by a Niners pass rusher and quarterback Dak Prescott completed a quick pass to receiver KaVontae Turpin, who was instantly blasted by 49ers defensive back Jimmie Ward. The play gained eight yards and the clock ran out.
