Assuming it was called correctly, I don’t understand how it can stand in the NFL.
Whether a fair catch or not, when a defender hits the receiver or prevents him from catching the ball, it’s a penalty. So if he grabs a blocker and throws him into the punt returner, that has to be a penalty as well. Now,if the blocker runs into his own man while trying to get to a block or pick a defender off, that’s a muff or all the fault of the receiving team. The Chargers guy purposely threw Tolbert into Turpin. If that is allowed, it’s a rule that should be changed.

And even if that wasn't a penalty the hands to the face was blatant.

It's hard to call sketchy officiating when Dallas is notorious for penalties

The officiating WAS sketchy, but so was our propensity for penalties.

It is not allowed and would be called any other time. Attempting to frame it as he was blocked into Turpin holds no water and the fact that it was so quickly is a big deal.

CeeDee earned his pay tonight! He did a great job.

I agree the Cowboys in general deserve most of the flags they get for bone headed mistakes. They can however be a highly penalized team and be on the losing end of corrupt officiating. Committing the number of penalties they do just makes them an easier target.

Great players aren't always great, but they are when they have to be.

Garrett won 13 games. MM is an idiot. Makes some of the dumbest time management decisions in the NFL.

Once upon a time. Garrett also went 4-12, and 8-8 4 times, hence the nickname ol' 8 & 8.

Fans like you make me suck! Please share your thoughts....

You're a dirty little girl... lol

Gallup . My god I’m over the drops in the end zone!!

 

[JoeKing]

Well-deserved penalties and not taking care of the ball almost cost us another game. We got lucky because the other team was making the same mistakes.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

I am shocked at what I am about to say. But Mazi Smith had 3 nice plays today.

Clearly Dak isn’t comfortable in this scheme and is at his best when breaking the pocket.

The Chargers were not ready for him to run when he has been a pocket passer as of late. It certainly changes the game in some cases and gives Cowboys another option.

Clutch win when we needed it. Heal up over the bye and get this O line playing better.

That's a Super Bowl team right there.

We got our mojo back.

Mr. Mojo back from IR...

She got a lot of screen time towards the end of the game. Who is she? Lol

She is the new Taylor Swift

They score without their defense getting TDs

How many TD

They score without their defense getting TDs

And how is that working for them? Sir, it is a team game.

 

[Barewulf]

We won. Offense is broken. Fix it.

 

[CordovaRaider]

That game was so fixed by the NFL to make it interesting and compete against the MLB in the ratings...
