The ref's farked it up. Don't care what transpired in the earlier part of the game. I hate the Cowboys but they got hosed.
I'm not the only one that thinks so...

What delay?
Dak popped up and handed the ball directly to the center who spotted it.
Could the ref have been there a second or two sooner? Sure. But he still needed 2 seconds to get around Dak and the center. Had they not been in the way Dallas may have had time to clock the ball.
Dak ran too far and used too much time, it's not the refs job to fix a teams sloppy play and clock management **** up.
