Game Day ***Cowboys vs Eagles 2nd Half thread***

[NeonNinja]

Challenge for what?
It was a personal foul call. That's an automatic first down.

Just allowing their defense to get a break.

 

[Adreme]

Still a 1st down due to the penalty so it shouldn't matter. Unless the NFL makes up a new rule for the Eagles on the spot...which you can't be surprised if they do

Its not a new rule. The penalty would have happened after the play which means if he is short, it is Eagles ball THEN they apply the penalty and its 1st and 10 Eagles.

 

[Coogiguy03]

I think they are going to challenge the spot and then if he is short because the penalty occurred after the play was over, then the Eagles would get the ball and then the penalty would be applied. I think Dak got the 1st but that is the logic I believe.

NO IF HE DIDN'T GET THE 1ST DOWN, THERE ISN'T A REASON TO KEEP THE FLAG CALLED, IT'S 1ST DOWN THEIR BALL!

 

[jblaze2004]

Challenge? It was a penalty? What are they challenging?

 

[cowboys5xsbs]

I guess if he didn't make it, the penalty is after the play so we don't get a first down?

Correct

 

[mardwin]

There are only 4 guys in the box. Why not run that one?

Because

This OLs run blocking is not good

Our center is not strong enough

 

[tcc0808]

No way they can overturn that based on the replay

Oh just wait……. We know how this works

 

[kento40]

You can’t throw a challenge. The penalty negates the challenge

 

[nate dizzle]

So I thought Dak was short...so the question is, if the flag was after the play, and the challenge is successful, wouldn't it be Eagles ball but backed up close to the goalline?

 

[JonesBoys]

Tool bag Siriani just wasted a challenge. Don’t know how you can overturn this. There is no clear view.

 

[Wangchung83]

That’s the part of the tush push that makes it work. Their line always gets a great push. Ours, no so much

That and Jalen is way stronger

 

[JohnsKey19]

If they challenged the spot, they still got the personal foul. Idiots.

It was after the play, so it may be a good challenge.

If Dallas was short it's a turnover on downs and Eagles get the ball. But I'm not sure there's enough to overturn the spot.

 

[TheJynxedOne]

What is he challenging here?

The spot. But let's say he is short and they see that, the penalty still should make it first down or the Eagles get the ball with the penalty tacked on?

 

[Coogiguy03]

Its not a new rule. The penalty would have happened after the play which means if he is short, it is Eagles ball THEN they apply the penalty and its 1st and 10 Eagles.

EXACTLY WHAT I JUST SAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Nav22]

Still a 1st down due to the penalty so it shouldn't matter. Unless the NFL makes up a new rule for the Eagles on the spot...which you can't be surprised if they do

But the penatly was after the play.

 

[Fmart322]

NY gets their chance to screw us

Yup.
They hate us more then isis

 

[The Quest for Six]

the challenge is just to give his defense some rest...

 

[XXLMike]

You can’t throw a challenge. The penalty negates the challenge

Wrong

 

[Cydios]

Dallas will get screwed here.. no doubt about it
