I'm sure the other NFL teams are laughing at the Cowboys blaming the officiating for their loss.
Yeah they made a difference but overall, good teams don't put their team in position to have penalties affect the outcome.

It's the NFL, the competition is so close that 80% of games are close enough to be decided by poor calls. Its something the NFL absolutely needs to fix.

This team has enough talent that just like MMA, it shouldn't be left in the judges hands.

Totally agree. I’ve been frustrated by calls too but I’d never complain to the media and s##tpost to NFL’s Twitter. If anything that’s just gonna put a larger target on our backs.

It's the sign of a soft team. If I played for another one I'd be laughing at them.

Makes us sound like a bunch of whiny babies unable to take responsibility.

It's very embarrassing.

I mean, its just the mindset of a locker room full of guys that are babied.

When things don't go right it's somebody else fault. Why work or play harder when, in your delusional mind, you're just going to get screwed over by the refs?

They are a bunch of loser, not all of them, but it doesn't need to be all of them to bring the whole team down. It's rotten to the core.

I have no problems with the officials criticism. Even if it didn’t make us lose yesterday. It is horrible and affects the outcomes of games. The nfl won’t do anything about it unless the fans stopped watching.

what id really love is some famous person… who has a lot of followers in social media to do a one week boycott of the nfl. Watch how fast the nfl would change things.

There is 0 accountability in officiating. There is no reason the nfl can’t take 10 officials put them in NY somewhere to evaluate every call in real time without stopping the flow of the game

Another Cowboys year of why they didn't make it to the Superbowl. It was the Refs, Garrett, Jerry's fault ...No it was the fans for believing. As usual only person that wins each year is Jerry $$$$.

I disagree. The NFL is a money making machine and yet they have always tried to fix the officiating issues by employing part time officials and minimal technology. Their "changes" tend to be among the most idiotic solutions possible (see pass interference challenges) and It literally never seems to change unless there is enough fan outrage, so why not have all NFL players complain loudly and often until these cheapskates actually hire full time officials and study the use of technology to make the game better?

Dallas was outplayed by the Cardinals yesterday, but that shouldn't mean that the officials get a free pass. They should get completely hammered by all outlets and all players until the NFL actually decides to fix the problem with real solutions.

I agree with this.

play better. Relying on refs to get things 100% right is a loser mentality.

I have referenced this a thousand times - Chuck Noll: “play better than the refs ref.” Words to live by right there
