Game Day ***Cowboys vs Lions post game thread ***

[mahoneybill]

The defender appeared to try to take out his lower leg after the ball was gone, but whatever. We finished the fight.

agree that was a cheap shot to me.....

Of course, and non of the other costly terrible calls count? NFLN and ESPN really hate the boys

The real question is will lawerance ever return a fumble for a TD in his career?

 

[GOLDENCHILD1688]

man am i glad they proved me wrong after that missed fg i thought we would blow it late for sure. very proud of the effort from these guys today. they kept fighting

williams and lawrence redeemed themselves trememdously today.

 

[ElGatoGrande]

There were some flukes and bad performances but they kept fighting,,,, this same team a few years ago would have folded like a wet taco! Kudos to all!

This guy was a huge relief for him and this franchise. It's like the pressure was so big to win this game and now at least I hope he and this team can relax a little bit going into the next game and it will be on the road. Playing this game at home and no doubt playing the toughest wild card opponent of any team this weekend and all the pressure to win a playoff game is a huge relief.

Agreed 100 percent. The Cowboys will be less tense next week in Green Bay.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

Agree. Also following that tackle to the back by the Detroit player on that throw looked to me like he tried to take him out of the game.

Anyone else see it that way ?

I mentioned this in another post. Detroit is a low down dirty team. I'm glad they're going home.

 

[dfan32]

Exactly! Both players made contact. I think it was a good non call.

In fact I think the contact Hitchens made was to the arm of the reciever that was stuck in Hitchens facemask. It could have been called the other way.

 

[Tawney88]

Face guarding is a college penalty, not an NFL penalty.

I've seen it called in an NFL game before im sure of it but it really doesn't matter. I'm glad it went Dallas's way, just never expected it. Even if I'm wrong im ok with it. I don't have to be right. I'm just glad it went our way and Dallas won

We haven't won over the media yet. All they can seem to talk about is the PI call. So our work isn't finished. We need to go into Lambeau and punch them in the mouth. The O-line needs to redeem itself after getting beat a lot today. I'm happy about the win, but we're not finished.

 

[mrmojo]

We deserved to have some breaks go our way...not apologizing for anything

 

[utrunner07]

hats off to this defense, could not be prouder of them, i love how this team plays but this defense is something amazing, heart, grit, determination, bounce back, amazing. props to the offense for not giving up, and to the line who showed up supreme in the 2nd half. love this team!

 

[JS22]

Well, that was moderately stressful.

 

[TheCowboy]

Thank you refs! Good comeback. HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!!

That's ridiculous. There was a ton of football that was played after that and they couldn't win it. That's on them.

 

[bark]

Anyone argues about the reveresed call all what the ref need to say is

"My hand was cold, I throw the flag and I didn't feel what I was doing"

Underrated post

The Cowboys are moving on. Let the media talk.

Who cares. WE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was yelling almost every cuss word created; and then when they picked up the flag I'm sitting there saying nothing looking like an idiot. But I don't care!

 

[StarBoyz83]

What a crazy game. Dallas just refused to lose.
