Game Day ***Cowboys vs Bears 1st half game thread***

[Carson]

I hate the refs...but I get that call

That’s fine. But how about call a holding on Chicago? They call the blatant hold on Reiff that drive is over

 

[Pass2Run]

Pretty soft roughing call against Golston. It was mostly open hands to his upper chest.. But that's what they do to the Cowboys..

Still a stupid, unnecessary play, though.

Golston is a knucklehead.

 

[Wangchung83]

Diggs wants his stat back. Golson owes him a million.

That doesn’t happen without golson, he tipped the pass and made a great play

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

The more they show the replay, the more I am convinced it was a BS call

 

[Redline360]

He's coming in jumping forward and could have easily destroyed the quarterback if he didn't put his hands out. Looked like he folded his arms in and didn't even push

Not sure how you expects players to freeze midair

 

[Mr_437]

He didn't hit him in the face, the replay showed it, but Moose is being a company man covering for the Refs.

 

[MarcusRock]

So why is this a roughing call? He did not hit the head/helmet, he did not pound him to the ground, so what was it? I know they are very strict with these but why is this a roughing call exactly?

Forearm to the neck. Did you just see the reverse angle replay they showed?

 

[Xeven]

Play hungry no kneel down.

 

[GoldenR]

Anybody see Josephs' coverage or position? Dude is just awful, along with Brown.

 

[Bagman]

Fowler early in the drive and Gholston to cap it off. Great job guys. Way to give the Bears a free TD. Total F****** idiots.

 

[buybuydandavis]

The roughing penalty was just the latest demonstration that the NFL is now the Not Football League.
He totally pulled up *on good football*. QBs are now treated like punters. I don't know what this game is, but it ain't football.

 

[TheHerd]

What IS the rule actually? This is ridiculous.

If you touch the QBs head, even with the towel on your waist, it's a flag. Neither intent nor how hard you touch him matters

 

[mldardy]

Dak will have to put up 50 our D is playing there worst game of the year

I guess you forgot the Eagles game. This isn't close to that.

 

[jwooten15]

Dak Romo

 

[SacredStar]

Unbelievable smh

 

[JohnnyTheFox]

That was not roughing the passer at all. He hit him in the chest area

Yep total BS call

 

[Yoshimitsu]

Sorry I just freaking hate taking out Micah for the majority of an important drive. Like ***. we have a bye next week you have an opportunity to close out this game. You don't take your best off the field just cause you have a three score lead. We need him out there.

Dude clearly isn't 100%. Look at his body language

 

[NeonNinja]

Sigh.

 

[Big_C_KU]

Weak call on the roughing from that angle. Didn’t even hit his head. Hit his shoulder.

 

[guag]

I don't see why people are saying "BS call".

He literally clubbed down on him with his arms.

You can't do that to the QB.

Yeah as much as I think it's stupid, it's against the rules. Clear penalty unfortunately.
