Has the league admitted screwing up by not reviewing Dak's TD?

The odds of nobody speaking up, with so many people who would have to be involved, after so much time are completely against any conspiracy. Particularly in modern times, with all the money that could be made by being a whistleblower, somebody would.ve come forward.

Of course. That's why I put compartmentalized as a condition for a large scale scheme. That doesn't exist.

They could very well put sensors in knee & elbow pads, as well as the ball, to tell what happens on the goal line. Since they drag the game out as it is, I don't know if I would even want that, lol!

It is just plain ridiculous for anyone to say that was not a TD. And the league said it was not a TD after review. Anyone who says there is no ref bias against the Cowboys is just plain detached from reality.

Jerry Jone just need to pay up

It never got reviewed, so they never officially called it a TD. Maybe one guy did and someone else said no, but it should've gone upstairs for review, where they would've seen that it was in fact a TD. In the scheme of things it doesn't matter because we won anyway, but someone should be held accountable.

Yeah the reff that would have been coming in form the lower right side of te screen when I watched it put up TD. So it should have been reviewed, and would have been a TD. Since they would have no way to reverse the call on the field decision.

I think the issue was there was no clear shot at where the ball was
The goal line on a run play is really so congested you can see well
Technology could tell if the ball crossed the goal line but isn’t very valuable at telling you if a player is down

I appreciate yall being unbiased and all but dear lawd that was an obvious TD. I mean real freaking obvious. As well as the Eagles game was obvious.

I thought he scored but I also get the concept of clear and convincing

That video was actually really clear and convincing, disturbingly so actually. The refs screw us on that play. I think they did the same on Daks TD run vs Philly also.

Right, which is why the league should have reviewed it.

The league only reviews scoring plays. That play wasn’t ruled a TD. McCarthy would have had to challenge it. He didn’t because he must have been told from the coaches booth that they couldn’t see the ball cross the goal line. None of the reviews they showed on TV showed the ball cross the goal line. The non TD call would have stood and it would’ve cost us a valuable time out.

It has to be conclusive that the ball crossed the goal line and it wasn’t.
He didn't challenge it because coaches can't challenge inside two minutes to go in a half, which is why the league was supposed to.

None of the replays showed the ball cross the goal line. You really didn’t need to spend much time to see there were a pile of bodies on top of each other and the ball wasn’t invisible. Had the league reviewed it the noncall would have stood.
