This isn’t rocket science. All Eli had to do was lower his shoulder and plant his outside foot towards the inside and take the hit. 1 & 10 victory formation. Instead the Cowboys get the ball back!
Again, this was a great opportunity for Eli to learn! On to the NFC Championship Game!
Read where Eli is dealing with a groin injury, so he's not 100% and neither is McCaffrey.
. . . all I can say is that on Sunday, Eli busted through for that first down and many more yards from the line of scrimmage to be far enough from the opposing goal to seal the deal . . .
Nothing like expert analysis given by someone who has never ever been in that position ever in their entire life. The man made the first down & it gave San Fran a fresh set of downs which was plenty of time to drain the clock. There was a zero.zero percent chance the cowboys were going to be able to do anything with the 20 seconds & 90 yards they had to travel considering they had all night & couldn't traverse the distance but once.
