Cowboys vs. Refs

Or missed the obvious personal foul on the two pointer when Irving smacked Bradford in the head.

There really is nothing more embarrassing than whining about the officials............ especially when the calls appeared legit. The only bonehead one that I thought was possibly a stretch was the clip on Escobar. That was tight.

I wish all the geniuses that point to that play would hit rewind on the dvr and see the blatant false start prior to our no call. It shouldve been dead before that even happened.

The on on Scandrick was really bad. His hand was on the shoulder and the other player grabbed his arm and shoved it upward. Even then he never even really touched his face. He may have grazed it but no foul of any kind and it took away an int.

The flag appeared to come after the INT which was well after Scandrick was in contact with that player.

So what? They still clearly missed a blatant hit to the head. To not acknowledge that was a gift call is just bizarre.
 
NFL officiating is inconsistent and at times dreadful nowadays.

But this notion of a bias or conspiracy against Dallas is chuckle worthy.

Hardly blatant when you look at the sheer amount of holds that don't get called.

When that hold leads to Elliott being able to get outside, yeah, it's likely going to get called.

I am not sure which is funnier............. claiming officials are out to get the Cowboys or claiming since they let or miss other holds, ergo, they shouldn't call that one. Wut?

Dude Free was behind the guy with his arm sticking out holding him from going any further. It was clear as day. You see the guy trying to go one way but unable to because of Free holding on.

You clearly don't understand what is or isn't holding according to NFL rules.

The called that because at the end the defender pushed himself up to Free and pretented to be getting held.

It was a well deserved "gift" on a play that NEVER should have happened. We got away with a play that shouldve been ruled dead before it ever took place. What is bizarre is somehow arguing that we haven't been decimated by ticky tack game changing calls for 2 weeks straight now. Yall sound like Aikman trying not to be biased so hard that your biased in the other direction lol.

They missed the call for the false start on that play. If they hadn't missed that, the play would have been blown dead with no hit on Bradford.

Back them up 5 yards and do it again is what should have happened.

That was a blatant hold. I am getting embarrassed at the whining of Cowboys fans tonight.

No objectivity at all.

You should be getting tired of being wrong. Everyone knows it was a bad call except you. You should be embarrassed. Of yourself.

It's not trying to be unbiased. It's just reality. NFL officiating is inconsistent and at times bad nowadays. If you watch enough games you can see that.

This constant desire by some of you to constantly blame the refs and for some to try to acknowledge there might be some conspiracy against the Cowboys is laughable.

You guys were complaining in the game threads about the refs are purposely screwing the Cowboys and yet on the biggest play of the game they miss about as obvious a blow to the head as you will see.................... that's funny to me.
 
What was the Free hold? I can't remember the play. The complaining in the game thread was about Escobar's clip (that seemed suspect to me), the Escobar hold (legit IMO), Scandrick's illegal hands to the face (Legit if you read the rule). I think some even tried to argue that was a bad call against Elliott for a hold.

I can't remember the Free hold.
 
NFL officiating is the worst ... all these close games in the 4th quarter every week are not accidental...

Wrong the answer is false start, march them back 5 and do it again.

So the biased refs overlooked a false-start on the Vikings, allowing our d-lineman to rush Bradford and blatantly smack him in the head without throwing the easy flag?

So how are the refs out to get us again?

If you mean all NFL refs or the entire crew in a conspiracy then yes, but having some individual refs biased is absolutely possible.

If that one guy is the head ref then he could influence the crew to some extent.
