Did the Refs Rob the Commanders of a Gutsy Road Win?

I just went back & rewatched it. Most certainly did not turn 90 degrees. Ball was caught\secured with tip pointed at his left shoulder & remained in that orientation thru the ground.

I know what a catch is. After explaining it to you all over the years, you know what a catch is. Apparently, this ref crew (and replay crew) don’t know what a catch is. Was the fix in here? This play changed the whole complexion of the game. Dak, who was looking pretty shaky, seemed to settle in once he knew the game was in the bag (wink, wink). I mean, congrats to him on the All-Time Cowboys TD record but will he be able to sleep tonight knowing how he got it? Probably. He has a Sleep Number bed afterall.

Here’s the video. Look at the assuredness of the Commanders fan here, only to be disappointed moments later and watch his innocence go down the drain along with the Commanders' chances. I’m sure he doesn’t believe in anything anymore after this highway robbery.


Tell that to Dez... IDC if it was the wrong call, we've had to deal with it,so can the skins
 
Every team gets the bad end of the call. Cowboys get their fair share of calls that should have gone their way. I felt like it was a catch, but when the refs called it a in completion, I gonna say I was happy.

They'll just repeat what the broadcast crew & rules guys already said. Catch. (cause they can't actually give you vision, they would rely on what the internet told them)

Why don't you post it here for everyone to watch & we'll all vote on it?
 
No the ball was moving as the knee came down, can't overturn it. I think it was a catch but the rules are the rules. If it had been called a TD, it would have stood.

They still would have lost
 
I wish they'd shown some reviews of the TD on the other side of the end zone later. The quick look I got at it, it seemed like his butt hit OB before the second foot came down. I could definitely be wrong, but I wanted to see it more clearly.
 
It is interesting how quick people are to downplay this as insignificant when if it had been called correctly, it would have TIED THE GAME. We know how this team is when they have to play tight football, and God forbid have to play while trailing.

But they would have scored more points and we could crap on the D more. Get with the program.

That's not the angle to look at. The other one shows him still bobbling it I thought.
 
I thought it was a catch and td. That means next week the refs will blow a call that will cost the Cowboys. The Football gods will balance the scales as Dallas loses to the Ravens on a controversial call.
Yep, like a Stephen A. Smith quote of "whatever bad that can happen, will happen to cause the Cowboys to lose a game."
And history has proven this to be very accurate.
Unfortunately.
 
Brady got his jazz retired by Dak just like Romo did. Brady thought he got it right when he dumped pregnant Bridget Moynahan for that South American fluzzy model who ended up cheating and also leaving him while having a child with another man. Yeah, that dumb Tom Brady.

Want some more? I've got some more on Romo if you want some? You probably can't handle it just like you can't handle how the refs correctly called this supposed TD pass INCOMPLETE!
Crazy AC rant, you’re embarrassing yourself again

It was one play in the third quarter and they settled for a field to get them within four.

Saying the play was the refs “robbing them of a gusty road win” is a real stretch.

The Daniels play was the only one for the Commanders that might have put the outcome in doubt.

The apocalypse is clearly upon us

Here is another angle. Ignore the clueless Cowboys fan commentary (something I've said around here a time or thirty-seven) in the Tweet because Blandino is absolutely right. The ball can move, and as long as it's still controlled and possession is not completely lost, it counts as regular possession ("movement of the ball does not automatically result in loss of control.") For the going to the ground rule, which applies here, you need control, two feet (knee) and maintaining possession through contacting the ground.
