I hit their forums to see what they're crying about.. apparently it was the refs last night. Hilarious!
Yeah their right it was the refs. If it wasn't for them we would have hung over 40 against their defense.

Again, for holding calls these refs laid off a lot of arm holds and jersey tugging by Philadelphia but Dallas took advantage of a lot of interferrence calls and face mask types of penalties. Dallas got benefits of a lot of fairness equalizing last night.
Where was that pass interference in the endzone against Cooks? He was completely mugged and no call.

Chris Collinsworth's reasoning that Cooks didn't run was why they draw a flag is nothing more than covering up for a bad no call.

The refs are often the reason teams lose according to their fanatics. Objectivity is not something many fans are capable of. It can’t possibly be that the other team is good too, lol.
The refs called a good game.

That was a completely uncatchable ball. If the eagles defender hadn’t even covered him, there’s no way Cooks can make that catch in bounds.

The refs could have called 50 more penalties that game. Is that what we want?

I enjoyed the win and yeah we got a few calls but hey we've been on the other side of those calls many times. But these refs are just throwing flags to flex their power. That head ref who was big Philly fan was miserable knowing he had to say there was no foul when a flag was thrown against Dallas.

I saw something on X that said Dallas had more O line holding calls in the game than Philthy has had all year. If true that is very “weird”.

Are you claiming refs have never cost a team a game?

I think you aren't being objective and are trying to virtue signal. I thought you were better than this.

Look, man, I'm not an idiot. The refs do cost teams games and you darn well know it. I don't appreciate the the tone of your post.

I’m not calling you an idiot my friend. I was merely stating an opinion that fans are usually not objective when it comes to officiating. You are free to disagree.

I'm enjoying Philly radio right now, they are all over Howie Roseman *** for his roster building, though he was the best ever?

Philly never fails to disappoint with their video game approach to running a franchise.
I love our dominant victory of course, but 2 Super Bowl appearances and one championship in the last 6 years says they are doing an ok job with their roster. I'd take those results over the past 6 years.

I saw a stat for Philly's defense:

Going back to the 3rd 49er possession, into our game, when you exclude kneeldown drives, the Eagles Defense had this sequence of possessions :

TD
TD
TD
TD
TD
TD
TD
TD
YD
FG
TD

Or something close to that.

They are broken..... and I don't think it's the players fault (entirely)....it's the philosophy.....and actually, if you listen to some people, there's evidence that the defensive philosophy used doesn't even co.e from the coaches.

Oh hell, I was at a perfectly good fight when a football game broke out!

Absolutely, I meant the philly fans who stated that Howie was the greatest at roster building are now turning on him after a couple of losses.

I completely disagree. Watch it again. It was certainly catchable and hit Cooks in the hands. The defender altered Cooks before he could catch it cleanly. Thus that play could have been a penalty. Even Collinsworth said that if Cooks lean into the defender that would have automatically be a flag.

I am sure that is the talk on the radio stations in Philly today.

Has anyone listened to them today, or visited any Eagles sights.
I wonder if all our Philly fans on here are on those pages now trashing them.
Out of curiosity, I peeked into a well-known "Philly sports talk radio show" after the game, just for the sheer enjoyment of hearing the Sheagles fans wallow in misery lol.. The hosts of the show gave the Cowboys "some" credit for being the better team; But mostly they blamed the loss on fatigue, bad coaching and bad play calling on both sides of the ball. Most of the fans that called in were FURIOUS at how bad the Sheagles looked Offensively and Defensively, without giving credit to the Cowboys for being the main reason their team was stifled. ** Since they have an "easier" remaining schedule, they still believe they will win the division. We will see lol.. Like the old saying goes: "That's why they play the games".
