Unpacking how Dallas Cowboys held Green Bay Packers to a tie in Week 4 | PSNFF | NFL on NBC

PEACOCK. >> I HAVE NEVER HEARD A MORE CONFUSED. SELLOUT CROWD IN MY LIFE. >> YOU HAD PACKERS. >> FANS LIKE CRAZY IN THIS BUILDING. COWBOYS FANS LIKE CRAZY IN THIS BUILDING. AND WHEN THAT CLOCK HITS 000 COACH, NOBODY KNEW WHAT TO SAY. NOBODY KNEW WHAT TO DO. THEY ALL LEFT. EVERYBODY’S GONE. NOBODY’S EVEN WAITING AROUND FOR THE POSTGAME SHOW. >> WHAT DID WE. >> JUST WATCH? WHAT JUST HAPPENED HERE? >> WELL, I’LL TELL YOU WHAT. IT WAS AN INCREDIBLE OFFENSIVE GAME. BOTH THESE QUARTERBACKS PLAYED REALLY WELL. BUT RODNEY, I CAN’T FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIGURE OUT WHAT GREEN BAY WAS DOING ON THAT LAST DRIVE IN OVERTIME, TAKING THEIR TIME, THEY ALMOST RAN OUT OF TIME AND THEY WERE SO CASUAL ABOUT IT. >> I’LL TELL YOU EXACTLY WHAT THEY WERE DOING, COACH. THEY WERE PLAYING FOR THE TIE. INSTEAD OF BEING AGGRESSIVE AND TRYING TO WIN THE FOOTBALL GAME, COACH LAFLEUR DECIDED THAT HE WAS GOING TO TAKE HIS TIME AND LINE UP FOR THE PERFECT FIELD GOAL AND TIE THE GAME. AND LET ME JUST SAY. >> THIS. >> I THINK IT’S ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. IN THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL. LEAGUE THAT YOU HAVE A TIE. THESE ARE THE BEST PLAYERS ON THE PLANET. YOU GOT OVER 80,000 FANS FROM GREEN BAY, FROM DALLAS. PEOPLE SPENT THEIR MONEY TO COME HERE TO SEE A TIE. THESE ARE THE BEST PLAYERS ON THE PLANET. IT SHOULD NEVER END IN A TIE. IF YOU WANT TO KEEP THE KICKERS INVOLVED, COACH, PUT IT AT THE 30. HAVE BOTH OF THEM MAKE IT. PUT IT BACK FIVE MORE YARDS UNTIL SOMEBODY, WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO DO. BUT NO PROFESSIONAL NFL GAME SHOULD EVER END IN A TIE. THIS IS SOMETHING THE OWNERS SHOULD TAKE A LOOK AT, AND THEY HAVE TO CHANGE THIS. >> IT’S A. PAINFUL FEELING FOR THE FANS. >> FOR THE PLAYERS. >> I MEAN, ROMEO DOUBS CRAWLING. >> OFF THE FIELD AFTER THAT LAST. >> JUST PURE. >> EXHAUSTION. >> IN THE END. 40 40 ROWDY. >> WHAT WOULD YOU DO? >> JUST KEEP PLAYING? WHAT WOULD BE YOUR. >> SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE? >> JUST WHAT I JUST SAID. IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOU WANT THE KICKERS INVOLVED, PUT IT AT THE 30 YARD LINE. BOTH OF THEM HAVE TO MAKE IT TAKE IT BACK 5 YARDS. KEEP TAKING IT BACK 5 YARDS UNTIL SOMEBODY MISSED. THAT’S HOW YOU KEEP KICKERS INVOLVED. COACH. >> I’LL FIGURE OUT A WAY TO DO IT. MAYBE LIKE THE COLLEGE OVERTIME, I DON’T KNOW. BUT AGAIN, I’M JUST. SO I WAS SHOCKED AT GREEN BAY. THEY GOT A FIRST DOWN INSIDE THE 30 AND IT’S LIKE, OKAY, WE’RE JUST CASUAL. WE’LL TAKE OUR TIME AND WE’LL LET IT RUN DOWN TO THE TWO MINUTE AND THEN WE’LL RUN A COUPLE PLAYS AND LET THE CLOCK KEEP RUNNING. IT’S LIKE THEY WANTED TO SCORE WITH ONE SECOND LEFT. IF YOU SCORE A TOUCHDOWN, THE GAME IS OVER. GO GET THE TOUCHDOWN. >> YEAH, I THINK COACH LAFLEUR HE KIND OF OVERTHOUGHT THAT. I THINK JUST BE AGGRESSIVE LIKE YOU WERE EARLY IN THE GAME. JUST BE AGGRESSIVE. GO DOWN AND TRY TO SCORE A TOUCHDOWN. BUT I DON’T LIKE PLAYING FOR A TIE. I JUST I THINK THAT WAS CONSERVATIVE. >> YOU’RE DOWN THERE. YOU’RE AT ABOUT THE 12 YARD LINE. BUT YOU YOU DON’T HAVE MUCH TIME LEFT. AND NOW YOU’RE RESTRICTED BY THE TIME INSTEAD OF BEING ABLE TO CALL YOUR WHOLE GAME AND ABLE TO RUN THE FOOTBALL, IF YOU NEED TO. IT JUST IT DIDN’T MAKE SENSE TO ME. >> IT ALMOST SEEMED LIKE THEY KIND OF THEY JUST DIDN’T KNOW WHAT TO DO. AND IN THAT SITUATIONAL FOOTBALL ASPECT, THEY. JUST THEY JUST FROZE UP. >> THEY SEEM. >> CALM, IN CONTROL, WANTED TO SCORE AS TIME EXPIRED. >> AND THAT ONE TACKLE FOR LOSS SORT OF SCREWED. >> UP THE PLANS. >> AND I WAS STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO MATT LAFLEUR. THAT WAS WHEN YOU FELT. >> HIS TEMPERAMENT CHANGE A BIT. >> WHEN THEY HAD THAT TACKLE FOR LOSS THAT ULTIMATELY KEPT THAT. >> DIGGS MADE A GOOD PLAY ON THE FIRST SCREEN PASS, AND THEY THOUGHT THAT WAS GOING TO BE A BIG PLAY. IF THEY COULD SPLIT IT. THAT KEPT THE CLOCK GOING. THEN YOU HAD ANOTHER PLAY THAT KEPT THE CLOCK GOING, TACKLE IN BOUNDS, AND NOW IT’S JUST, OKAY, WE’RE GOING TO COME BACK. SHOULD WE RUN ONE MORE PLAY? SHOULD WE SPIKE? IT ALMOST RAN OUT OF TIME. >> AND I THOUGHT THE COWBOYS SHOULD HAVE KEPT THAT AGGRESSIVE APPROACH WHEN THEY CAME, AND THEY KNEW THEY HAD TO SCORE A TOUCHDOWN. THEY WERE SLINGING THE BALL. DAK WAS IN CONTROL AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY SCORE. THEY COME BACK AND THEY WANT TO RUN THE BALL AND GET CONSERVATIVE. YOU GOT TO KEEP THAT SAME AGGRESSIVE. >> I WASN’T MAD AT HIM FOR RUNNING. JAVONTE WILLIAMS DOWN THERE. THE DEFENSE WAS TIRED, FEELING LIKE HE COULD POUND IT IN, BUT THEY NEEDED TO SCORE FROM THE FIVE. >> HOW ABOUT THAT THROW DAK PRESCOTT. >> UNBELIEVABLE. WE WERE. >> RIGHT. >> STANDING. >> ON. >> TOP OF IT. WHAT DID YOU SEE. >> FIRST OF ALL I COULDN’T BELIEVE HE GOT OUT OF THERE. HE THREW IT. AND THEN THE CATCH AND THE OFFICIAL MIKE TIRICO SAID HE MADE A GREAT CALL THAT HE GOT BOTH FEET DOWN AND GOT HIM IN. AND IT WAS JUST. THAT WAS AN UNBELIEVABLE PLAY. >> YEAH. BOTH OF THE PLAYERS WERE IN THE END ZONE. AND THEN TOLBERT LOOKED UP AND HE FOUGHT HIS WAY BACK. AND THEN I MEAN, THIS IS A GUY THAT’S NOT EVEN A STARTER. THIS IS A ROLE PLAYER. HE KEPT HIS

  4. I'm not a fan of either team but I was on the edge of my chair during that game. Great performance by both offenses, awful performance by both defenses

  8. In case of anticlimactic ties, they should implement a field goal shoot out, beginning at the 30 yard line and increasing by 5 yards each time both teams make it, until one fails. That would very entertaining finale, without exposing to much the players.

  18. I disagree with everything the dude said. A tie is a perfectly reasonable ending to a game like this. It is rare, but legitimately– these teams played exactly evenly, and the score reflects that. Don't like it? Have your team score more than the other team.

  33. Having a FG kick off (like a hockey shootout) is actually an amazing idea! Way better than a stupid tie. So unfulfilling.

    Would be great for a team like Dallas having the best FG kicker in the NFL. Aubrey would go undefeated.

  36. Packers had a chance at the end of regulation to win it but settled for the draw because of the clock. Packers had another chance to win at end of OT but settled for tie due to clock. They were trucking on both of those drives but couldn't get it done.
    When you condlsider is was the 3 point shift on the blocked FG, the packers should have won several times, but didnt
