I'll have a go at this one as well.
First of all there is always reason to doubt the way fans remember quotes from officials. Nothing personal - but fans tend not to be very objective.
The "talk him out of it" is more of an officiating lingo thing. What it really means is "make sure it was the right call". In that perspective Kukar was really helping the H.
And trust me at the NFL level, the H is not going to be bullied by the R to changes is call.
