How bout dem Refs?

Seriously, I haven' t complained ALL season.... this crew was unbelievably screwed up. I know good teams over come bad calls... and look, we DID! But they were TERRRRRIBLE!
 
The refs kept the Giants in that game. Their line was playing dirty all game and pretty obviously. The Giants got 7 off of that terrible whistle on the fumble. I agree on picking up that flag with Beckham, he was trying to drag a flag when church did him him a little late but not terribly so.
 
Honestly i think they shouldnt have turned the last play. But i dont care.
 
I'm not a big complain about the refs kind of guy. Some days your team gets the rough end of the calls. That day was today for the Cowboys. The important thing is how your team responds to that adversity. You have to be good to go on the road in the division and overcome some one-sided calls. The Cowboys finally are.
 
It looked like the official on that cancelled punt return penalty was reaching for the flag before any recognition of a penalty could theoretically occur, like he had made up his mind that a flag was coming before anything happened. Not a bias thing, just officiating before the fact based on positioning and angles.
 
By my count there was a 21 point swing on bad calls...the fumble, the hold on Smith that was the exact same hook the Giants did all night, the OPI that kept their TD drive alive. That does not even include the blatant hold on the screen to Murray or the non int grounding call on the at the feet of a receiver that hit the ground a full 5 yards behind him.

Oh man I forgot about that should have been grounding penalty on Eli. I loved how the commentators really didn't even try and defend it. They just sort of scoffed at it like it wasn't even worth their breath trying to rescue the refs from their ineptitude.
 
They wrent great but the only thing that really pissed me off was that fumble. That was a clear fumble and recovery by dallas that gave them 7 points.
