2-point Conversion non-Penalty

[sweetness0986]

I knew as soon as I saw it that's all these guys would be harping on. It's amazing what they turn a blind eye to against the Boys but when it's in their favor it's the reason they won the game. A missed hands to the face penalty when the ball was already out. It wasn't like the Julio jones/Richard Sherman non PI call earlier this year. And there were a ton of game changing iffy calls against us earlier in the game.

Super frustrated tonight, even though we got the W.

Keep talking, we're still 11-1 and that ain't changing.

It's a penalty, it's in the books, and it should have been called.

But, I've always hated that penalty. Stuff like that is out of players control.

That's what they do when the Cowboys win. You should see my Facebook feed, lots of skins fans(aka butt hurt Cowboys haters) complaining that the refs gave us the game. Really? I guess they tuned in on that last drive.

No, they watched the entire game. They probably watch our games closer than their own.

Due to the position of the ref, Bradfords body position and thortons left arm it obscured the view. Personally i think that penalty is BS anyways due to normal physics a guy goes up to swat a pass the natural motion will bring the hands to head and shoulder areas of the thrower.

Is that all they are going to talk about now? One play? The same play where there was a blatant false start on the Vikings that wasn't called? No mention of the numerous phantom calls against us all night long? Is the narrative for this game really going to be that the Vikings were sunk by the refs? Seriously?

This game is forgettable..

Let them talk about it. This game will go down as the least memorable game all year.

Only positive I took from it was Dak finally hit a deep ball over the middle and on a night where our pass schemes were trash Dak made plays with his feet.

Refs said no penalty. Cowboys won 17-15 to improve to 11-1.

Ten days to prep for NY.

This was a game that could have easily gone to either side by one bad call or another. Let's face it -- we didn't play our best game by far and neither did the Vikings, either. Things evened out in the end and we were fortunate to escape with a win against a tough team. Next up is the Giants. Let's see if our progress generates a win at that juncture.

May we compete in that one better than we did he first time around. We're 11-1 and the Giants will be forced to beat us, as if it'll help to save 'em. In the meantime, they'll be obliged to beat Pittsburgh to contend seriously with us. I have no complaints with our position right now.

Probably.

But who cares. We're 11-1.

Yes it is. In 10 days we will be 12-1.

 

[Clove]

Yes it is. In 10 days we will be 12-1.

That's right my man. And when you only throw the ball 18 times, of course your numbers will be down. Bradford threw the ball like 45 times. If Dak had thrown that much, he would have had a 400 yard passing night.

Exactly.......it is why they wear helmets.....it hurts the hand more than the QBs head

 

[links18]

I get that it might have been a legit call, but to construct a narrative that that one call was the game is frustrating, especially with the numerous sketchy drive killing calls going against us. Besides, I doubt that hit made Bradford throw the ball ten yards out of the back of the end zone.....

 

[Carson]

I feel the exact opposite. I feel like NFL wants us to lose

Sorry man! Was speaking like other peoples fans. I should've put that haha! Sorry!

True but I know why they did there some DEs back in the day that would use their arm like a club.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

is this the Vikings forum?

 

[mrmojo]

Even if they called it they still had to run another play, maybe tgeery still don't convert. We used to lose these type of games, glad the shoes on the other foot.

 

[LucaBrasi]

They can talk about it all they want, won't change the score.

Maybe Sammy Bradford should worry more about why he airmailed a tying 2 point score out of the end zone, rather than giving anyone, anyone, a chance to make a play. Nice throw.

That really was pathetic.....Eisen tried to blame the hit.

Yes, the fix is in, the NFL wants to see the Cowboys in the superbowl.
