Refs weren’t the Reason we lost that game?

[Boyzmamacita]

Didn't the Cowboys get away with a couple PIs? Blaming officiating only excuses poor coaching and poor play. The reason the Cowboys lost is simple
1.Bad coaching
2.Bad offense
3.Can't stop the run in critical situations
4.ST is horrible
5.IT'S BILL *** BELICHICK!!!!

And "Tripping!"

Field goals only win games in last two minutes.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

What are some of the calls we got away with? Were any rare (7 called all year 2 on us) like tripping? Or as impactful had they been called?

We can attempt to fix some of our other problems. I don’t see how we can prepare to stop these strange calls from having a large impact on the game.

BOOM!

 

[JMech]

Yeah really! You don’t realize Refs can and do effect the out come of games. You actually watch the NFL?

No, I just have been imagining it since the mid 60s. Thanks for the education.

 

[Ranched]

MEANWHILE....

 

[Starforever]

Because many are down on the team, any perceived excuses, will be executed.

Calls in crucial moments, have changed many games through the NFL tenure. Just as much as a turnover, bad playcalling, or a stupid player moment.

And "Tripping!"

We had poor coaching of course, but the tripping penalties 100% effected our chances of winning that game. This is not making excuses, it’s common sense analysis!

Some people do not understand, often their is more than 1 or 2 reasons why a team loses. The tripping penalties effected our chances of winning the game!

That is hilarious Deflator and Chief!!

What a stupid comment to make! The refs darn sure might have been the reason we lost that game!!! We will never know for sure. If they don’t call the phantom tripping penalty we just might go down and score the game winning TD.
1 penalty in the later stages of a game can definitely change the outcome of a game.

Refs were not the reason we lost. We lost for so many reasons. It would take me a day or two to explain. Garrett and his overall lack of control of every detail of the game is the reason. Jerry with his enabling doesnt help.

The weather. Here is one point. PARCELLS used to study the weather..EVERY WEEK..and then build his gameplan from that. RED barely cared. We are so novice its unbelievable. It shows as we know. We need a new coach and we need Jerry to stay out of the way!!

So you do understand terrible calls vs 1 team can effect the outcome of a game! Great, you agree with almost every other football fan.

Of course all those are reasons why we lost AND the 2 phantom tripping penalties. Why is that so difficult for you to grasp?

Because if it wasn't that it woukd have been something else. It always is against winning teams. Do you watch?

 

[DCowboyz]

Not scoring a TD, missing a FG, making stupid mistakes lost us the game. The refs were just a cherry on top to just F us even more.

 

[Captain43Crash]

Because if it wasn't that it woukd have been something else. It always is against winning teams. Do you watch?

Yes I watch! I saw the stupid mistakes we made due to coaching and the 2 phantom tripping penalties in the 4th quarter. All reasons why we lost. Funny some people don’t understand, there can be, and usually are multiple reasons, why a team losses!

 

[Jake]

It's been 3 days. Everyone knows the tripping calls were bad but there's another game tomorrow.

It's time to put the tissues away.

 

[Oh_Canada]

There is never one single reason, however, why should we as fans/NFL tolerate such utter incompetence (and maybe something far worse) from refs?

 

[JMech]

Look, terrible calls go both ways. Don't become the fan that cites the ref as the excuse that the opposing team wins all the time. I deal with in-laws like that.

A good team overcomes all elements. Yes, there are bizarre situations where a ref does overturn a game (those are infrequent over the course of time, but you will lose one because of them and then you will win one because of them), but don't become one of those ridiculous fans running and yelling.....the refs did it to us again!

All right. Many have said what you’ve said and it seems reasonable.

Now, the others were asked to come up with some game changing rare calls or some horrible ones,as you say, that have affected othet teams. I’d ask you the same.

Keep in mind. One team has had to overcome:
Dez catch overturned
Illegal huddle
Delay of game on defense
Unsportsmanlike on the coach
Two false tripping calls

I’ll leave out the two long streaks of no holds on opposing o-lines.

Name a team that’s had to deal with just one nearly unheard of call. Let alone 5.

I’m also leaving out:
Saints
Elliott none fumble
Roughing on Lawrence while he was pushed low
5 second play that took 2 seconds.
2 offensive pi s on Cooper both Bull****


Packers

Smith fake injury result in 6-8 time outs
Erin throwing ball at feet after losing it
Cobb interfered with-grabbed on his wrist
Graham fake interference
Brown pi without contact
Roughing on Quinn .1 of a second after release
No holds again all game after Rodgers chastised ref on a clear hold first drive.
Garrett unsportsmanlike
Hold on Tavon that was not close and moved from first and goal to long field goal range.
Taunts allowed on Dak and DB on run.


Jets

Unreal pick play call takes away 4 points


Because they aren’t rare and are mainly judgement calls that, although are very bad, are debatable.
It’s not debatable that one team seemingly gets some of the most unique calls of all time.

Name another team that has faced that level of terrible.

Although it’s clearly something like me would say. Ask yourself if it’s possible that your in laws are wrong and some here are not.
