Could teams be holding Micah on purpose?

It really is criminal, at this point.

The Cowboys’ defense better be ready to get physical. This is a unit that excels at hunting quarterbacks and creating turnovers in bunches when it’s playing with a lead. It also becomes a lot less productive when opponents decide to play smashmouth football. The Bills infamously bullied the Cowboys in a 31-10 defeat — when Buffalo ran for 266 yards — but Dallas had similar issues in losses to both San Francisco and Arizona earlier this year. The Cowboys won’t face a dominant rushing attack when meeting Green Bay in the Wild Card Round...

careful calling of penalties better be the path. Then bring on game 2 in Dallas.

Of course because they know no flag will be thrown.
Especially being GB.

I'll never support cheating as regulatory.

 

[TheGoat73]

It would be derelict for a coach not to.

 

[805BoysInBlue]

If they're smart they'll hold, especially on long developing deep routes.

I ageee with that second tweet, that is what I would tell my offense. Do whatever you need to do cuz they aren’t calling it anyways

 

[lkelly]

I was told that it's a wording problem.

 

[reddyuta]

we need to move Micah around,one of the best ways to avoid him being doubled or triple teamed.

 

[Mac_MaloneV1]

Yes, absolutely. Jeff Saturday said as much after the Miami game.

This isn't just a Micah thing though, it's a Cowboys thing. There were two egregious ones on Clark in that Miami game that also weren't called.

 

[MojaveJT]

Of course. Smart teams will keep pushing the limit until it’s called.

 

[Bagman]

Yes, absolutely

I like how that still shot was actually not a hold when you run the video. And Micah posted it on his social media to boot.

As for on purpose, it's in the rules that holding chances could be exempted during a double team. So I'd double team him all game if I was an offense.

 

[Coogiguy03]

Just sucks they'll call one of our big plays back because of #73 he grabbed a jersey, meanwhile, Micah got choked!

 

[charron]

Why not? Not like the refs will call hold against him anyway.

 

[CCBoy]

No doubts...11 games and no holding calls!

 

[Boyzmamacita]

And some say it all balances out. How? We're not allowed to do the same.

Dean Blandino said as much

I hate talking penalties but they are an unfortunate big part of the game. Im surprised no one has brought up the non call in the Washington game Sunday. I beleive it was our LG whose arm was grabbed and pulled by a Washington defender that freed up there other lineman to go unblocked to tip Daks pass that led to pick. These are absolute game changing penalties that effect out come of games. The NFL neeeds to get this fixed. Parsons being held is a joke at this point, how many plays from the offense would of been negated if he was not held. And than we have Steele or Tyler getting called for a quick grab.
