Two days after the Dallas Cowboys were eliminated from the playoffs, Dakob Prescott apologized for his comments on Sunday when he lost to the San Francisco 49ers. Cowboy fans threw mineral water bottles and other items at the stadium, initially seeing that they were throwing players, and later confirmed that the fans were going to the referee.
Prescott objected to fans throwing things at his teammates, but when reporters corrected that this was not the case, he did not defend the referee and even deliberately led the fight. About 48 hours later, Darko realized he was wrong and apologized on Twitter for his words and actions on social media. "I reviewed myself after Sunday's game about what the referee said. I was immersed in a disappointing failure and said something I didn't want, which was irresponsible and unfair. ”
Prescott's frustration with the referee stemmed from the fact that with 14 seconds left in the game, they had every opportunity to try the last attack and try to equalize. But at this point Prescott was pushed from behind by referee Ramon George, resulting in some wasted time. Before the Cowboys could swing the ball, the time was up and the Cowboys lost the game. The winning offensive was full of regrets, and as the players walked back into the dressing room, fans who were dissatisfied with the penalty began to throw things into the pitch, and Prescott was uneasy about this behavior.
"I'm so sad, you say we're a team, you say we're giving everything to the sport every day, you say you're willing to give everything you can for rugby." Prescott said: "No one wants to win more than we do and I understand the excitement of the fans. "Prescott originally wanted to complain and ask the fans not to have extremes about the players. But then the reporter told Prescott that the fans' goal was not the players, but the referees. At this point, Prescott's words turned sharply: "Then I really want to thank the fans." ”
I believe that everyone can also hear that such a statement is indeed unconsidered, so today Prescott apologized. That said, Cowboy Executive Vice President Stephen Jones condemned the fans' behavior on Monday. "It's unfortunate," Jones said, "it's not something that we fans do, I think we have the best fans in the world, there are no extremists like that." ”
After winning the National East Championship, the Cowboys ended the regular season with 12 wins and 5 losses, and the team has returned to the playoffs since 2018. Everyone was enthusiastic, so when they lost at home to the 49ers with a lower pick than themselves, the fans couldn't accept it for a while.
Finally Prescott explained: "All the referee needs to do is get in as quickly as possible and I don't know why he bumped into me. Yes, I know the referees have to swing the ball, they need to be closer to the ball. But in hindsight, it was really difficult for us to drive the ball within the allotted time. ”
