Today was a rough day. But at least we can still laugh at the Cowboys.
On the ensuing 49ers possession, the Cowboys' DeMarcus Lawrence was called for defensive holding for an automatic first down. It was the 14th penalty of the day, a Cowboys postseason record.
Samuel's 10-yard rush on 3rd-and-10 was initially ruled a first down before a review showed he was short, setting up 4th-and-inches from the Dallas 38-yard line. A false start by Trent Williams then negated a first down by Garoppolo, forcing a San Francisco punt. After the Cowboys got the ball back at their own 20 with 32 seconds left and no timeouts, Prescott used short completions along the sideline to advance the ball into San Francisco territory with 14 seconds left. Facing 2nd-and-1 at the 49ers' 41-yard line, Prescott rushed up the middle for a 17-yard gain. As the Cowboys attempted to line up, the referee ran from the backfield and collided with the offensive line while trying to spot the ball on the 24-yard line.
History bodes well for the 49ers. The winner of the playoff matchups between San Francisco and Dallas has gone on to win the Super Bowl on five occasions.
