(CNN) 达拉斯牛仔队周日晚上在德克萨斯州阿灵顿以 56-14 击败华盛顿足球队。
牛仔队在本赛季的战绩提高到 11-4,并获得了 NFC 东部冠军。
随着华盛顿在 AT&T 体育场分崩离析,场边的情绪也爆发了。阿拉巴马队的队友防守前锋乔纳森·艾伦和达隆·佩恩发生了争执,NBC 的广播被摄像机拍到了。
佩恩似乎用一根手指戳了他队友的脸,艾伦用拳头进行报复。
“我认为这不需要火箭科学家......如果你看看那场比赛的进展情况,情绪高涨,事情发生了,”艾伦在赛后被问及争吵时告诉记者。
佩恩将这一事件描述为“只是兄弟间的小分歧;也许是错误的地点、错误的时间,但它发生了。”
在连续三场失利之后,华盛顿现在的战绩是 6-9,季后赛的希望几乎落空。
华盛顿队主教练罗恩里维拉说,他已经与两名球员谈过在场边发生的事情,但不会对他们采取纪律处分。
“我和他们谈过,就我而言,这就是它要留下的地方,”里维拉告诉记者。 “我的球员对我说什么不关任何人的事。”
艾伦被问及这场争吵是否与多名球员受伤和 Covid-19 问题最近对华盛顿队的影响有关。
“这肯定会影响我们,但作为专业人士,我们的工作是出去踢好足球,在过去的两周里,这是我参加过的最糟糕的足球比赛——包括我自己。我们没有人责备我们自己。
“当场上发生一些事情时,你永远不会让它进入更衣室,”艾伦补充道。 “事情变得很热,我们修复它们,我们坐下来长大后继续前进。
“我将对我的行为负全部责任,佩恩也将如此。”

Sunday Night Football: As Dallas Cowboys run riot, tempers flare on Washington Football Team sideline
(CNN)The Dallas Cowboys thumped the Washington Football Team on Sunday night, destroying them 56-14 in Arlington, Texas.
The Cowboys improved to 11-4 on the season and have clinched the NFC East title.
As Washington fell apart at the AT&T Stadium, tempers also flared on the sideline. Defensive linemen Jonathan Allen and Daron Payne, who were teammates at Alabama, got into an altercation that NBC's broadcast caught on camera.
Payne appeared to stick a finger in his teammate's face and Allen retaliated by throwing a punch.
"I don't think it takes a rocket scientist ... If you look at how that game went, emotions are high, things are high, things happen," Allen told reporters after the game when he was asked about the altercation.
Payne described the incident as "just a little brotherly disagreement; maybe the wrong place, wrong time, but it happened."
Washington is now 6-9 after three defeats in a row with its postseason hopes all but over.
Washington coach Ron Rivera said he had spoke to both players about what had happened on the sideline, but that no disciplinary action would be taken against them.
"I talked with them, and as far as I'm concerned, that's where it's going to stay," Rivera told reporters. "What my players say to me is nobody's business."
Allen was asked if the altercation had anything to do with how multiple player injuries and Covid-19 issues have recently impacted the Washington team.
"It definitely affects us but as professionals it's our job to go out there and play good football which for the last two weeks has been some of the worst football that I've ever been a part of -- including myself. We have no one to blame apart from ourselves.
"When something happens on the field, you never let it carry into the locker room," added Allen. "Things get heated, we fix them, we sit down as grown me and we move on.
"I'll take full responsibility for my actions and so will Payne."
