The reason our NGs were getting manhandled... - Dallas Cowboys Forum

Rack Bauer · 11-18-2005

I rewatched the game and watched the "Game of the Week" deal on the NFL Network.

I think I know why that rookie FA center was tearing glover and ferguson a new . One several plays he was moving forward BEFORE he snapped the ball. Yes, that IS suppose to be a false start.

If anyone's interested go rewatch the game and just watch that center. On a few of them he's almost already hitting the NG before he snaps the ball. Don't know how the refs didn't pick it up or how our NGs didn't pick it up.

Totally agree. I watched the game on a gigantic HDTV screen in a sports bar and even though I was thoroughly impaired I swore up and down to my buddies that Jamaal Jackson was moving prior to the snap.

His shoulders were passed the line of scrimmage before he snapped the ball. He had a leaning forward motion prior to the snap.

I haven't had a chance to watch the game in detail at home but I am with you on this one Rack.

Phoenix-Talon, what have you got to say on the matter?

Rack Bauer · 11-18-2005

It does make me feel better that the reason this unknown was dominating is cuz he was getting away with a false start so often. I was starting to get worried about Ferguson and Glover. Surprised they didn't say anything to the refs about it.

If you guys can see it -- why aren't the coaches or players pointing it out to the ref?

I think you get away with those when you are playing at home and your team already has been called for multiple penalties while the opponent hasn't had any callled.

reminds me of the Carolina playoff game where the Panthers had a huge jump on D and were basically offsides on every other play without getting flagged.

I will have to go back and look at the Eagles game, but I also remember *****ing about their LG getting a little jump without getting flagged.

If Joe Gibbs were our coach, he would have already called a press conference to whine about it.

We're not whiners like the Redskins.

I was talking about during the game. If your opponent keeps doing something illegal over and over again, you usually let the officials know about it during the game.

After the game is over it's pointless to say anything cuz it has no affect on the score.

If he was moving that much there would have been more fumbled snaps.
Seems the same guys that ***** about fans whining about the refs at extremeskins are the same guys that whine about the refs here.

They called him once for an illegal snap. Then the next play was a false start on #83, but to me it looked like the Center reached out and grabbed a guy before he snapped it. He is very good at leaning forward right before he snaps it if you watch him.

sillycon · 11-18-2005

If he was moving illegally, wouldn't you think Glover and Ferguson would complain to the refs about it or told Parcells (who'd in turn tell the refs)?

FLCowboyFan · 11-18-2005

They called him a few times for illegal procedure. Maybe they got tired of calling it on him. Kind of like pop warner/pee wee football where they overlook somethings to keep the game moving
