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.

Refs don’t make you win or lose. (Said every good coach I ever had and every great coach who wins)

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.

Right and it's one of my biggest complaints with the league. Make clear guidelines for penalties and call them consistently across the board, all crews. The NFL could fix a lot of the issues with penalties. They choose not to.

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

I can't imagine Dak strolling over to the opposing sideline and telling the head coach to go #&$& himself.

He would be suspended, not Brady though.

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?

Lol hell yeah I'd be crying if a former 9er was reffing the game. You got me on that one.

I'm sure Alex Kemp will do a good job officiating. They tend to let teams play more without calling the ticky tacky stuff in the playoffs.

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 dont have to re-watch that play to know the Lions TE initiated contact. No flag for face guarding.
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.

For all you conspiracy theorists - the NFL has 6 elite blueblood franchises in the playoffs (Cowboys, Packers, 49ers, Steelers, Raiders, and Patriots)...plus an LA team. They can pretty much cheat however they want, they will get a premier franchise to advance no matter what. Goodell must have been smiling on Sunday night when the Raiders and Steelers both made it.
