lol at them acting like a rule designed for player safety is as game changing as PI or Holding. If the Cowboy had player had tackled a receiver before the ball got to him and they didn't call then sure that is a terrible non-call but a slap to the face after the ball was released? Get out of here lol.

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?

What aren't you processing?

Are you seriously arguing the refs were biased against by not calling the false start which allowed out defensive linemen to continue to rush and smack Bradford plainly in the face......and didn't throw the flag?

Nope.

They didn't call one hold on Minny and they were holding blatantly. Therefore, I don't feel bad for the Vikings when they didn't get that call.

You've got to be joking.

The Vikes got called for 3-4 holds tonight.

What's the point in just making stuff up to be angry about?

I think the point is the refs screwed the play up from start to finish.

The refs screwed the Cowboys all game but then screwed the Vikings once. Interestingly the one non-call that went against the Vikings was at a point when the game would end within the point spread.

I can agree with that, but unfortunately there's a vocal fringe element in the fanbase that ignore the blown calls that favor the Cowboys because they're too busy waiting for the next call to feel indignant about.

What are you watching football for if you think it's rigged?

Feels a little bit like the Detroit playoff game, we better get our **** together against the Giants offensively, because we know Eli is going to have all day to throw now.

Felt a little like the 2007 Lions game after we had beaten GB on Thanksgiving. Stunk it up, only to win in the final minute. That 2007 team was never the same after beating GB. went to sleep.

if they call both the false start and the touching of the helmet do they just get a redo or is it over?

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.....
Well said.
Basically a bunch of Cowboys haters crying because the ref missed a call that had zero impact on the outcome of the game. Zero.
Anyone who gets upset the ref missed a penalty that didn't impact the game is just a crybaby loser.

There was a clear false start before the ball was even snapped that was not called. Cancels out.

The holding that negated the long run by Zeke that finally got our offense started was b.s., too.

You will hear about it until next week against NY. Ugly frigging game all round...cheap win. You take it and move on but that last drive starting on the 46 and ending with a field goal was something I thought had been purged from Garrett on the road. Who on this board thinks that if the Cowboys needed a touchdown on that drive that they don't get it? A touchdown and all the nonsense at the end of the game is moot...OR...simply handling properly a frigging snap on third and one with 2:24 to play. The whole team needs a kick in the backside and Prescott looked lost...like a typical rookie. Whole lotta stink...but they won...so good for them, but if they pull that crap @ NY they will get their teeth kicked in.

You want a clean kill, but tonight it was more like two people clinging to the side of a cliff, with one person unlucky enough to be the person on the bottom holding on to a belt with no buckle.
