Video: FoxSports: Mike Pereira and Dean Blandino discuss Michael Gallup end of game catch

[conner01]

Anything close we should support as a cowboys call. It's what fans do.

Unless you need to be in the running for the most objective fan ever.

I’m always objective
But I was talking about replay
If it’s very close they generally stick with the call on the field
To me this was obvious his bottom hit before he was out of bounds
But had it been called no catch it may very well have been upheld

The refs got the call right for once. He had one foot in and then his butt touched the ground inbounds before the elbow. The far away judge had a better view and saw the feet inbounds. That made them overturn the previous call.

Wow. I didn't think I'd ever be agreeing completely with Blandino. Must be 2020.

I still hope every bowl of soup he eats is cold, and his feet smell like asparagus pee.

They made the right call. however if they would have called it incomplete as the 1st official indicated. Would they have overturned it to a completion?

It was very close. I think they would have overturned, but I don't think it's a certainty.

The officiating crew worked exactly as it should have on that play. Gotta give them credit on that one.

Was someone questioning whether the feet were in? That was beyond question, IMO.

I rather take a hot poker in the eye instead of listening to 2 refs talk football especially those 2 refs...

I just think it's hilarious that the Cowboys had a game and possibly the season saved by Michael Gallup's big ole butt! If he was built like CD the elbow comes down a full count before the rest of him! LOL!

 

[Creeper]

After watching the replay I thought it was clear his but came down first. I did not see his left elbow.

But what I did see in on the ensuing TD, Steele got away with what looked like it have been holding. It looked like he hooked the LB a little. Imagine if that gets call and they assess the Cowboys a 10 yard penalty. 3rd and goal from the 11 changes everything. To wins games like this you need a lot of things to go your way.

 

[RJ_MacReady]

His left ELBOW (not just hand) is what seemed to hit the ground before his butt it right elbow. They kept showing/focusing/talking about one angle of the play, but then one angle of video was shown (once) and you could tell that his left elbow struck the ground before the butt and right elbow.

It’s infuriating sometimes when they call the officials into question, but refuse to look at all of the different angles of footage.

 

[droopdog7]

So what’s the actual debate anyway. We know the rule so it’s simply a matter of whether his arse or his elbow his first. Never saw super slomo replay but by a micro second it looked like his arse hit first. But calling it a catch was key because it was so close that it may not have been overturned.

I wann hear them compare the janoris Jenkins play on Ruggs from Monday night, and the jalen Ramsey play against Gallup.
