We have a soft team and LVE is STILL right. One doesn't preempt the other unless you think he's *****ing about a problem that doesn't exist? They didn't have a problem getting the Dak fumble right... they were all over that one.

Coming into the game, Dallas' opponents had the second most penalties in the league. How much more help do the Cowboys need?

Players blaming refs is loser mentality.

If this is the attitude in the locker room then this team is even more done then I already thought.
I don't know -- defense goes out there knowing they have to create a play for the team to have a chance -- they actually create the turnover and the refs make a poor call and New York doesn't intervene. Hard not to be frustrated with that.

That said, we don't really have a winning formula. Defense survives on turnovers rather than stops, so when we get them its great but its hard to rely on them in part because refs have to see them correctly. Kicking game alone has cost us several games already. OL hasn't had continuity all year, and Dak's mechanics break down pretty badly when he isn't comfortable.

Now this is loser stuff....shut up. I agree it sucks, it was a fumble but we our chances. Sack up and prepare for the rematch and stop *****ing about the refs. Make a stop when it counts or before the 4th quarter

And the Cowboys have the most penalties in the league. This just tells me the refs are waaaay to involved in deciding Cowboys games.

But he is right that getting a call correct shouldn’t depend on a coach’s challenge. College football would have reviewed that regardless.

There’s no denying it, people hate that star. That’s refs too. Clear as day week after week.

It’s up to jerry to blow people (refs) and league officials and make the media talk about it.

Now even the players are making excuses about the officiating. He needs to worry about the opponents and not the damn refs.

When players start blaming the refs you've got a soft team. This team didn't play well on either side of the ball for most of the game.

Get a stop in the last 4 minutes, LVE. There were several chances before "the fumble" and the Cards got a first down each time.
No you don't...soft teams take the loss and tuck tail....good teams get pissed off that they weren't given a fair shake

My most memorable memory of LVE in that game was him floundering around in no mans land while Murray was lobbing a TD pass over his head.
