Lets all cry about it a little more.
CRy? No... but Im furious. IM am so mad right now. Coaches get fired over wins and losses and that was a SIMPLE, EASIEST call an umpire crew will ever have. We all saw it, and we all immediately were like.... ***? How is that not a penalty that would have been half the distance and an automatic 1st down. I like our chances from the 8 yard line 1st down getting in and probably winning that damn game. So yea, Im gonna BIT... about this.

That crew should be suspended.

The irony of that not being called..... just like many rules in the NFL, that rule was created specifically because of our very Own Emmitt Smith always removing his helmet as soon as he scored a TD.

“Probably score a touchdown on that series”

that’s an absolute reach
reach???? You think 1st down from the 7 or 8 yard line isnt doable? Isnt a for sure thing? heck no, but we should have been able to find out.

Who cares, it was not called, the game is in the books they lost.
what a joke... who cares? Who cares that the easiest call a ref will ever have, and one that the entire stadium, TV audience and every player was sitting there looking right at, and they didnt call it. Why have freaking rules at all. This was not subjective like the AB push off... this was black and white simple. Screw the NFL, im pissed right now.

Even with the non-calls we played the reigning champs tough. Move on and focus on the next game.

They would have come back and beaten us anyway. Things like this happen to losing teams until they start winning consistently.
We find ways to lose. Whether it's a blown call or a holding penalty on 3 and 3, we always find ways to lose.
At the end of the day, we could have won by our own making. Instead, we're left with excuses - like losers always find.

Once again I think the game should be replayed with TB standing on their heads.

Saying that they would come back and beaten us anyway is a true loser attitude.

NFL admits mistake on play that potentially cost the Dallas Cowboys a Week 1 win over the Buccaneers
The Cowboys are feeling cheated by the NFL.

The Dallas Cowboys lost in Week 1. Nobody is out here saying that the Cowboys are anything except for 0-1, but after having over a week to digest on what happened down in Tampa Bay (while processing everything that has been happening in Dallas simultaneously) there is no denying it. The Cowboys were very much in that game and could have very easily won it.

They love to come back a week or so later and say they made a mistake in our games

They need to start handing out big fines to the refs.

I can see being upset with not getting the offensive pass interference on what turned out to be the game winning completion. But I'm not going to cry about not getting a gift on a play that should have been intercepted. Even the offensive pass interference may not have been called due to the defender being on the WR at the time.

There is NO reason an additional ref cant be in front of a monitor to overrule....not everything, but things the league is going to end up apologizing for.

No reason at all except the league maintains more control when they don't have to be accountable logically.
It's almost comical because millions of people across America said to themselves " Wow, isn't that a penalty?"

The camera was focused solely on him when he did it, yet none of the officials on the field saw it. Either they are lying or they are not doing their job, either way shouldn't some heads roll?

I am not whining after a loss but it is like the Saints no call PI in the playoffs, there was nothing else to watch except where the ball went and the whole referee crew missed it?

They should fine the referees not the player. Then crap like that wouldn't happen.

Players get fined when they Fup then the referees should too.

I’ve never seen anything like it and I feel like a ton of people missed it.

I didn’t see anyone on here speaking about it until I brought it up.

It was so out I’m the open and not only did he take the helmet off but he spiked it into the ground.

Absolutely unbelievable.
