Still pissed: Del Rio bothered by index card, referee’s smirk on 4th down play

ALAMEDA – The NFL might call Raiders head coach Jack Del Rio to explain what happened on that wacky, ultimately pivotal fourth-down call in Sunday’s 20-17 loss to Dallas.

Del Rio will listen, but “I’m doing to disagree with it. I know what I saw. I saw it myself from the sideline.”

Del Rio’s vantage showed space between football and first down marker following a Dak Prescott’s quarterback sneak with roughly five minutes left. That was enough for an easy decision.

“Just stretch the chain and if it’s inside, if there’s space, it goes the other way,” Del Rio said during his Monday afternoon press conference.
