What everyone is saying about the
controversial Cowboys-Lions two-point conversion
After defeating the Detroit Lions 20-19 at
home on Saturday night, the Dallas
Cowboys maintained their prospects of
winning the NFC East. Although the
Cowboys prevailed, there remain serious
doubts about the victory’s validity.
When offensive tackle Taylor Decker
caught a two-point conversion that
would have put the Lions up, 21–20, the
referee called an illegal touching play. In
response to questions about the call
following the game, head referee Brad
Allen stated that Decker did not report
eligible, while lineman Dan Skipper did.
Here are Decker’s and Lions coach Dan
Campbell’s comments regarding the call:
Taylor Decker
“They didn’t tell me anything after the
play. I mean all I really want to say on it,
just so I don’t get myself into trouble is, I
mean, I did exactly what coach told me
to do, and went to the ref, said report.
Yeah, I don’t know. It was my
understanding, too, Dan brings up the
possibility of those sorts of plays pre-
game, so I did what I was told to do. Did
how we did it in practice all week, and
that’s probably all I’m really going to touch on with that
Dan Campbell
“I’d prefer not to discuss it. I go over
everything in detail before the game,
okay? That’s what I did. 70 people came
forward. 68 didn’t. We tossed it to
number 68. That served as the justification.
Jared Goff
“Very confused. What I do know, and I
don’t know if I’ll get fined for this, but I
do know that Decker reported. I do know
that Dan Skipper did not. I do know that
they said that Dan Skipper did.”
