I've always wondered how the NFL officials can have regular jobs and take enough leave time to be officials. I certainly couldn't do it.

That's impressive and they really should incorporate more ex-players as refs....That's former Dallas Cowboys DB Nate Jones.
Hmm, maybe he's a fan of America's team. If we should be so lucky.
I feel like offensive and defensive holding calls can be so subjective. There is no consistency around the league. It really puts control of the game into the refs hands as they are allowed to dictate the pace/ outcome of the game. In the Raiders thanksgiving game, the Cowboys offense should have ran away with the game......if not for the 5 or 6 drive killing penalties that were very ticky tacky.....which killed our rhythm.
I didn't like the AZ crew that happened to catch us doing wrong every time we converted a third down either.
…..and after seeing that same thing done to this team for over well over a decade we’re still supposed to believe it’s just coincidence…….funny that our qb can get pile drived with no call but if Rodgers or Brady is merely grazed the flags come a flyin……..I know, just coincidence
That's former Dallas Cowboys DB Nate Jones.
Home cooking?That's former Dallas Cowboys DB Nate Jones.
We have a former Cowboy reffing our game? Oh lawd! Can you imagine if the opposite were true? Plus there's a dude from Lubbock. Guess we're guaranteed a few favors now, eh?

It’s funny how we’ve gotten to the point where we have threads about who is officiating a game.
If you see the names novak or hoculi reffing one of our playoff games then it’s game over. I throw correnti in there too. Hopefully none of those dudes are doing any playoff games.I didn't like the AZ crew that happened to catch us doing wrong every time we converted a third down either.
I agree, I’m just poking fun of people saying we’re going to be favored because we’re at home/have a former Cowboy player as an official.I dont have to re-watch that play to know the Lions TE initiated contact. No flag for face guarding.
