Game Day ***Cowboys vs Lions Post Game thread***

The elephant in the room is DQ. Agree. He gets too cute sometimes. Mm called a good game .

MM called a horrible game. The first down runs. And the last offensive drive…

 

[Rayman70]

We lose these type of games preJimmy being inducted into the ring. Curse has been lifted.

 

[TheHerd]

The rule has nothing to do with whether a defender makes a play or not. Offensive player loses control. Ball goes out of bounds.
Ball should go back to last point of possession whether the ball bounces into the end zone or not.
Did the defender make such a better play if the ball goes forward a foot instead of backward a foot? If anything, the ball going forward means the defender made less of a play.

Agree. It’s a stupid rule. Defense didn’t recover the ball, why should they get possession? Nowhere else on the field does that happen. It’s a totally ridiculous rule. I said it when it went in our favor a few years back.

Campbell should've gone to overtime. It is what it is.

I thought I heard Buck, or someone say that that isnt who Campbell is; just plays to win, now. Probably the kind of guy who doesnt give a D about being second guessed.

 

[Buzzbait]

He reported, the ref didnt hear him

That's what it looked like. The ref was walking away and didn't stop, as if he didn't acknowledge any report.

 

[Floatyworm]

Dan is definitely the cooler coach, but going for it 3x especially from the 7 was stupid as hell

That is true....

Well, Campbell needs to learn that games are won by field goals and overtime too. Not complaining tonight.

 

[Havic]

He has some Jimmy in him, no doubt. Aggressive as hell, and until that point all at the right time. But that was one of the moments when he had to be the leader and realize what was best for the win.

It's also the regular season and does he do it again in the playoffs? Personally, I think he takes the 3 and goes to OT

 

[Rayman70]

Horrible? No but I do agree about the run plays. Rather see a bit more bootleg roll out passes to the tightends on first down. I feel Ferguson would have had success.

 

[Chuck 54]

Going for the kill shot 3 times, I like it personally and I think this brings the team together that they trust the head coach to put the ball in their hands to win the game.

If that game meant anything, like playoffs, seeding, division, I think he kicks, but he’s on the road in a game that means nothing other than pride. He’d seen Dak roll up and down the field with Lamb. He told his team before the drive started that they were going to score and go for two to end the game right there. That’s who they are.

but usually you fumble out of bounds you dont lose possession....i think it is a bad rule...but same thing caused us to beat raiders like 2019 or 2018?....but i think rule should be changed but only my opinion

 

[VaqueroTD]

I'd have to look at the numbers, but I liked going for it. Especially away.

Your team just scored. You have the mo. Defense is dejected. Hit em again while they're reeling.

Cowboys had a TO the second time. It was over. The team doesn't run three different 2-point conversion plans that much.

It was a brilliant plan, but it just didn't work out. A little too cute. Should have accepted it and gone for the OT win.

He's on the Parcells Tree. Parcells would never make a dumb decision like that with three tries.

they need to change the rule

Yup he gambled and lost.

Clarke just said Rashaan Evans. What an idiot

Who was it?

If the shoe were on the other foot this place would have 20 pages of "we got screwed again" threads. But since it went our way no one is allowed to question it?

Maybe because it was the right call?

I see lots of posts questioning motives instead of arguing the point.

Yeah very true

 

[Aven8]

That prevent crap cost so many times over the years... never thought I would have to see that crap again.

Well to be fair Campo was in the building tonight……

 

[GORICO]

Its not an opinion. It's a fact.

The defense played soft and let them go right down the field. Time was not a factor by the time they got to the 10 yard line and scored a touchdown. They had plenty of time.

was that a prevent defense?....giving up huge chunks....DQ i hope figures out with MM and Dak how to be more successful on road
