After watching the Super Bowl, I got a sick to my stomach feeling

I think our offense was more explosive, but feel the Pats and Brady would've had their way against our defense. Even with the pressure Seattle was able to get Brady still more often than not got the ball away. At the least I think we would've maybe been close and then had our hearts ripped out towards the end.

They couldn't get the Packers off the field for 4+ minutes after the play call, and they weren't even trying to score. There's no question in my mind Rodgers would have marched down the field again, just a matter if there was enough time left afterwards for Romo to try again.

Anything can happen in the last minute of football. Just like that INT thrown by Wilson in the waning seconds of the game. Or that fluke pass which the Seattle receiver caught. There are no certainties in any game.

The only certainty in the Green Bay game was when they took the pass away from Bryant calling it a no catch. I'm now certain the NFL hates the Cowboys.

They converted a first down on a tipped pass that wasn't even going to the receiver who caught it. Had that pass been tipped differently, it could have easily been an interception. So, there's that.

The Dallas Cowboys were the best team in the National Football League this season. We were completely cheated out of a Super Bowl championship. No matter what anybody says. We were flat out cheated by the league we play in. It makes me sick too man

Seattle would've beaten Dallas. It wasn't our year.

You mean the team that didn't score a point against the Packers until there were just a few minutes left? That Seattle? What the heck is wrong with some of you? Why do you so easily concede defeat when there is none to concede?

No but the game was given to the Packers on a silver platter. The NFL had no rights to intervene with the game and it was a totally biased call. Obviously they didn't want the Cowboys to win for some reason and the NFL should be ashamed of themselves.

Lastly, to say that there was no chance that our defense could have stopped Rodgers is being a bit hypocritical.

You criticize those that say we were going to win that game if the catch happen. Well, saying that our defense would not have been able to stop Rogers anyways is just as ludicrous. We just don't know.

I blame the refs and the NFL to have screwed up that game. They had no rights at all overturning that play.

Seriously? You go from a full on NFL conspiracy to a definitive statement the defense would have stopped Rodgers. Hells Bells, the catch Dez made only got them to the 1/2 yard line. Who is to say the next play Romo does not throw a pick as he is been known to do or that Murray fumbles again just like he did a few minutes before. Both of those things could have happened too. Probably with the same probability that the defense would have stopped Rodgers with four minutes left. The Packers were not even trying to score and they got down to the 30 when time ran out. Get over the conspiracy angle. The NFL could care less who is in the title games. No conspiracy. No Bias. No nothing. Just like the week before there was no bias against Detroit when the ref made a bad call on the PI.

You really think the league that hosts the biggest sporting event in the world on a yearly basis has no say in who plays in the game?

Dallas most likely would have stomped Seattle. Tony would have had time to expose their secondary for more than just the dink and dunk stuff Brady had to settle for during most of the game, and Murray would have been reasonably productive. They wouldn't have scored at will but they wouldn't have needed to.

Green Bay was always the bigger test. Teams with real qb's have always been the biggest challenge for this defense. Give me a hobbled Rodgers over a healthy scrambler that Dallas would have contained any day of the week. They would have handled Seattle's mediocre offense just fine. Even Detroit was a tougher match-up even though they weren't a better team.

Dallas beats Seattle 8 times out of 10 with the only exceptions being due to sloppy play.

Your right. It would have gotten us only to the 1 yard line and Romo could have thrown a pick. Same thing if we would have scored and Green Bay got it back. Rogers could have thrown a pick as well. So there is no definitive whether we would have won it or not if we would have scored.

But the definitive is the call did increase our chances in losing. The the fact the call should not have been reversed in the first place makes this a controversial call and still is. Why else would the NFL make that reversal? Whats the reasoning?

That was a catch pure and simple. To argue that its not and the overturn was warranted is just being naive. Yes the NFL was biased because the evidence was inconclusive for an overturn. As for the call that went for us in the Detroit game people are ignoring the fact that it should have been offensive PI. The overturn of Dez's overturn was a catch and now they are scrambling to prove that their actions were warranted.

You can buy into their lies if you want. But I'm not. I'm not stupid enough to believe their excuses and you shouldn't either. That was a catch.

So far, the NFL is running around with their tails behind their back trying to pretend they made the right call. They didn't. It wasn't a mistake. It was a calculated decision to make sure we didn't win. What else could it be?

Cowboys could have beaten either team.

You would have felt a lot sicker after the game had that been the Cowboys defense Brady was dissecting. If he could put up over 300 yards and 4 TDs on Seattle's defense just imagine what he would have done to the Cowboys defense.
