just a reminder of the other angle

Haha. My favorite a@# rape of the game. On the most key critical moment of the game. That can't happen or be allowed by the league. Refs were royal screw ups last Sunday.

 

[jamesdojr]

We are not the darlings. We were back in the day, but since Jerry went on his own in the marketing area and actually went counter suit against the NFL, Jerry and the Cowboys has been getting screwed. You can talk loud and proud that "it doesn't matter shut up and accept your fate", but it's possible to say we didn't play well enough and deserved to lose AND the league is porking us. They aren't mutually exclusive.

Anyone who watches these games, and looks at things like Romo's roughing the passer calls, or saw the Pittsburgh-Seattle Super Bowl, or the call made to prevent KC from their 2 pt conversion, cannot try to defend that there isn't something at least suspicious going on.

Great post. I really hate when the best team doesn't win. Greenbay has a horrible team. I wouldn't sign one single person on their team to replace our starters in the same positions. Not one.

The only 2 worth mentioning on their team is Rodgers and Matthews. But I wouldn't trade for either because they're old and will soon be irrelevant.

At this point, I've given up on the NFL, to be honest.

There is no other reason that you can't employ full-time officials other than plausible deniability. When there's an intention to overcomplicate a simple solution, question the motive.

Same reason I don't tune in to any NFL games anymore. If I watch, I stream. If they care about improving the product which has become an error riddled 3 hour commercial with some football thrown in, I'll gladly tune in.

Obviously, I'll be here, but it's become obvious that in the face of egregious officiating, your chances of winning are too greatly proportioned to how officiating just feels like calling it. If they're semi biased for a team, or they just for some reason would prefer you not to win, you won't. Simple as that. There's too much parity.

I don't really get why fans think this is some sort of "conspiracy". If you don't think that's a possibility, let me ask you a question. Why would they not attempt to sway an outcome? Ratings? No. Even last year when Dallas was terrible they still managed to boost the cap, what, 10 million? So, why wouldn't they?

I mean, they obviously cared so much about the integrity of the game that they hired a guy with no real experience as the Supreme Master of Officiating.

I'm going to root for my boys, and i'll be doing my usual thang here, but in the back of my mind I'll know that if on any given day they feel like sending us home, they'll gladly call a lopsided game and just shrug their shoulders afterwards.

Great post. It's simple. The league doesn't want the Refs to be NFL employees because the NFL doesn't want to be accountable for the calls or rigged games... so rather than make the game better by adding accountability, theyd rather keep it bad like it is now and have fall guys that they can control from afar.

What's the common denominator with the bad officiating showcased the past few seasons, throughout the league?

Dean Blandino & Bad Officiating. ..Is anyone holding him accountable? The scabs were doing as good as these bums.

sickening...

That's Goodell's NFL managed by Blandino. Goodell mafia

 

[BoysWin]

So the Packers were holding him for 60 minutes? I guess that's why he wasn't close enough to Rodgers to even breathe on him.

Nearly. Don't laugh about the comment. Run the tape. GB was holding our DL all day long!

 

[Rockdoc]

cant we just lose without ref controversy?!??
(maybe not)

 

[Zman5]

The hold happened right as Rodgers was wheeling around to his left. The ref was standing right where he was supposed to be, but either he was looking at Rodgers, or Rodgers movement obscured the view somehow. Though to tell. The hold was obvious if you were looking at it. I genuinely don't think he was looking at it or it would have been called.

Either way, as we say, let's get better on defense and not be in these positions against the very best teams. We've made so much progress. A little more is not too much to expect or ask for.

If anyone was blocking the view, I think it was DLaw and the linemen blocking him. From the skyview, official does look like he is looking right at the line but like you said, his view was blocked by other players.

 

[Don Corleone]

sickening...

The NFL is entertainment. That is how they roll. That means that they have every right to shape outcomes as they desire.

The refs aren't incompetent. They are doing as they are told. The rules are written like laws because it allows enough ambiguity to shape outcomes.

 

[dguinta1]

Had to post on my FB page. Horrendous!.

 

[Gameover]

We pick up the 3rd&3 the game is over. We stuff #88 on 2nd&10 were in OT.

Terrible PI call on Brown... we blew the game tho

 

[Bleu Star]

sickening...

I feel like cussing rt now but I'm going to remain respectful to the site...

just a reminder of the other angle

Didn't you guys hear- the Refs through the flag yesterday and call holding on green bay; however the play and the game were three days over! Nice job Refs, nice job!

 

[strongarmqb]

I get this anger but let's also be fair here and admit we got away with some stuff in that game too. There were two CLEAR holds on Packers WRs that went uncalled. One was a blatant hold.

I tend to think it's not that the league is out to get us. I think it's that officiating has just gotten crappier over the years and teams that have noteworthy players like a Brady or Rodgers tend to get some benefit of the doubt.

Also, I think Garrett hurts us here too. He's too soft on the sidelines. Someone posted a study a week or so ago that shows some correlation between getting calls and being a real %$# on the sideline towards officials.

No one is saying that we didn't commit penalties too- the point is the officiating wasn't fair- or even. If your gonna call penalties, call them on both sides. Don't swallow your whistle when the game is on the line- which is obviously what happened on this play and many others since only 2 penalties were called on Green Bay the entire game,...

 

[cowboyblue22]

we lost its time to move on

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

How can we hear nothing at all from the NFL about this type of stuff? It's ludicrous.

That irritates me so much to see that picture.

So.... it's official.
There's a concerted effort to keep us from returning to prominence.

*****!

 

[TheHerd]

Just out of curiosity, does anyone have a pic or gif of the holding that cost KC their game?

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

LOL, he's being held by two people.

they cancel each other out.
