HC Brian Schottenheimer Slams Officials for Missing Critical Pass Interference on Final Play vs. Eagles
Share this article:
The Dallas Cowboys walked out of Lincoln Financial Field with a 24–20 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles — but the scoreboard wasn’t the real story. In the final, decisive moment, the Cowboys and their fans watched what they believe was a blatant injustice: CeeDee Lamb was clearly held, yet the officials swallowed the whistle.
Head coach Brian Schottenheimer didn’t hold back in his postgame press conference:
“Everyone in the stadium saw it — CeeDee was interfered with on that last play. For the officials to ignore that in such a crucial moment is unacceptable. A game should never be decided by a missed call.”
📸 Slow-motion replays showed an Eagles defender grabbing Lamb’s jersey as he tried to break free for the ball. But instead of throwing the flag, the referees let play continue — ending the game and leaving Cowboys Nation stunned.
The moment instantly set social media on fire. Fans flooded timelines with screenshots, videos, and hashtags like #WeDemBoyz and #CowboysNation, demanding accountability and declaring that Dallas had been robbed of its chance to win.
It only deepened the sting of an already chaotic night, which included Eagles defensive lineman Jalen Carter being ejected for spitting on Dak Prescott. For Dallas, to lose on a “no-call” after all that chaos made the defeat feel even heavier.
The NFL has yet to comment, but Schottenheimer’s words put public pressure on the league to address officiating accountability.
As the Cowboys turn their attention to Week 2, the bitter memory of being denied a fair shot in Philadelphia will linger throughout the season.
