Making my custom game film for this week's Eagles at Cowboys game and I'm up to the part where Boger's crew ignored Anthony Hitchens screaming and signaling for a time out for almost 5 seconds, well before the ball was snapped on the Eagles punt.

  1. Philadelphia Eagles at 11:50
  2. 1-10-PHI 38(11:50) (Shotgun) 11-C.Wentz pass short middle to 18-D.Green-Beckham to DAL 50 for 12 yards (50-S.Lee). Pass complete on a slant pattern.
  3. 1-10-DAL 50(11:11) (Shotgun) 11-C.Wentz pass short left to 13-J.Huff pushed ob at DAL 41 for 9 yards (42-B.Church).
  4. 2-1-DAL 41(10:37) (Shotgun) 11-C.Wentz pass short right to 81-J.Matthews to DAL 41 for no gain (24-M.Claiborne). Pass on a quick out.
  5. 3-1-DAL 41(9:59) 11-C.Wentz right end to DAL 44 for -3 yards (59-A.Hitchens).
  6. 4-4-DAL 44(9:16) (Punt formation) 8-D.Jones punts 35 yards to DAL 9, Center-46-J.Dorenbos, fair catch by 11-C.Beasley. PENALTY on DAL, Defensive 12 On-field, 5 yards, enforced at DAL 44 - No Play.
  7. 1-10-DAL 39(9:09) (Shotgun) 11-C.Wentz pass short left to 81-J.Matthews ran ob at DAL 31 for 8 yards. Matthews rolled out of bounds.
  8. 2-2-DAL 31(8:45) 43-D.Sproles right end to DAL 16 for 15 yards (57-D.Wilson).
  9. 1-10-DAL 16(8:07) 43-D.Sproles right end to DAL 17 for -1 yards (95-D.Irving).
  10. 2-11-DAL 17(7:25) (Shotgun) 11-C.Wentz pass short right to 34-K.Barner to DAL 12 for 5 yards (50-S.Lee). Pass complete in the flat.
  11. 3-6-DAL 12(6:48) (Shotgun) 11-C.Wentz pass incomplete short left to 17-N.Agholor. Pass incomplete on a slant pattern; Carr closest.
  12. 4-6-DAL 12(6:44) (Field Goal formation) 6-C.Sturgis 30 yard field goal is GOOD, Center-46-J.Dorenbos, Holder-8-D.Jones. Penalty on DAL-24-M.Claiborne, Running Into the Kicker, declined.
  13. PHI 3 DAL 0 Plays: 10 Possession: 5:11
That fricken' drive shoud've been ended RIGHT THERE on play #6. Instead because the officiating crew didn't give Hitchens that time out, Philly drove on to the Dallas 12 before kicking a FG.

I know later on some people think the clock expired to end the 1st half and the refs shouldn't have put 1 second back on the clock so the Eagles could kick a FG to go up 13-10. But the replay shows that was the correct call.

Their refusing to grant the Cowboys a time out earlier in the game though, there's no excuse for that.

I think we won the game. How many times did they call Philly for OPI? It seemed like a lot.

That holding call at the end of the game that negated a huge run was awful.

There were a few bad calls but I didn't think they were terrible overall. They threw too many flags for my liking, though. I think I read they throw the most flags of any crew out there.

6-1. The Bears might give us the #1 record in the NFC soon.

No crying over spoiled milk for me.

There is an excuse for that

It happens every week in this league

Not uncanny whatsoever

It was awful. That crew just calls everything. Players hold on every play as you can't block in the NFL without doing it but they call it constantly. Well except on Dez!

How about that "catch" before half? If I remember correctly, that was pretty doo doo dumb.

The missed timeout was inexplicable, and you can find blown calls in any game, but I actually thought the officiating was decent last night.

Tons of bellyaching in the game threads, as usual. Even after they showed replays where we clearly committed the penalty, people still complained. Fandom makes a lot of people incapable of unbiased opinions.

That was terrible. Glad we still scored on that drive but that was a terrible call.

I think crews like this are part of the reason TV ratings are down.

No one wants to watch a game with one flag after another.

Also another week without knowing what the heck is a catch (Agholor before the half). I guess now it is OK to bobble the ball from your chest to your waist while out of bounds. I use to think you had to secure the ball while in bounds.
