Vs Bears Cowboys had 6 flags, I can live with that. No doubt still have issues with pre snap penalties.

Honestly, I'm surprised, expected to be in the middle of the pack.
Of course, we were 1st last season, so we are seeing improvement BUT not nearly enough. Three penalties, false starts, offensive holding, and offside are killing us. In context, the Eagles are near the bottom. We gotta clean this up......don't know how but MM better figure it out.

This is the bane of McCarthy's tenure with Cowboys.

McCarthy made promise after promise to fix the penalties issue season after season.

He is a con man.

So I’ll say this. We get calls so easy on us. But the way they hold our defense lineman is absolutely laughable how we get no calls and it’s so obvious now.

Its totally biased. So long the holding penalties aren't called I refuse to believe that the refs aren't anything but corrupt.

I’ve seriously noticed with Connor Williams gone offensive holding has seemed less and less. The two tackles are good for one each every game but to be honest I’m thrilled with Joe Philbins unit .

None are as egregious as the ones we see let go time and time again for our opponents. It’s as if they don’t see theirs. It’s odd.

Only three teams have more false starts and no one has more offside calls. Pre snap penalties are entirely on you.

Sometimes you're going to get a hold or PI because you're reacting to the opponent, but false starts and offside? :facepalm:

i feel like the offsides are just the cost of being so aggressive. false starts are absolutely inexcusable though

We are 5th after 8 games and have -5 in net count. Which means we have 5 more penalties than our opponents.
