Did the Refs Rob the Commanders of a Gutsy Road Win?

Now show the whole video where the ball moves after hitting the grown. Before the knee hits the turf, he didn't have possession. He gains possession at the same time as his knee hits then when he hits the ground the ball comes lose. He didn't maintain possession for the full catch.
"ground" "loose"

Had too many Ciroc Peach shots. :cool:
 
I know what a catch is. After explaining it to you all over the years, you know what a catch is. Apparently, this ref crew (and replay crew) don’t know what a catch is. Was the fix in here? This play changed the whole complexion of the game. Dak, who was looking pretty shaky, seemed to settle in once he knew the game was in the bag (wink, wink). I mean, congrats to him on the All-Time Cowboys TD record but will he be able to sleep tonight knowing how he got it? Probably. He has a Sleep Number bed afterall.

Here’s the video. Look at the assuredness of the Commanders fan here, only to be disappointed moments later and watch his innocence go down the drain along with the Commanders' chances. I’m sure he doesn’t believe in anything anymore after this highway robbery.


I just figured it out. You're not a Giants fan, you just like rooting against the Cowboys. That's two weeks in a row you've given the Cowboys' opponent the benefit of the doubt.
 
I think this was one of those plays that couldn't be reversed. Had they originally called it a TD it would have stayed as one.
I think that's where they settled on it. It took a little for him to get the ball under control, so since they ruled it incomplete, they stuck with the call based on that. I think they were wrong, but I believe that was the reasoning behind the call.

Frankly, I think that is why the Dez call should not have been reversed. It looked to me like he made a football move, so it should have stayed as called on the field.

As far I’m concerned, the result of the play is irrelevant. Getting the win was the most important thing.
The bigger question going forward is the softness of our defense. Opponents are still dominating our front. Now it’s the Ravens in Brazil. They just lost to the Saints at home. They’re gonna be looking to make a statement.
 
the ball moved and by the letter of the law it was incomplete.

if it was the cowboys half this board would be hollering about it wouldn’t have changed the result
Ball moving isn’t the issue as long as you have control. He lost control for a split second but he did. That’s why it’s not a catch. And the replay booth isn’t going to reverse the call in the field when it’s that close. If it had been ruled a TD on the field, I doubt they would reversed it either.
