Green Bay officiating

[Verdict]

There is always one back breaking momentum changing call in every Green Bay game and it ALWAYS goes against the Cowboys. The roughing the passer call when Rodgers was in the grasp was a cluster **** for so many reasons. The refs didn't blow the play dead and he was in the pocket and intentionally grounded it.


It should have been a sack, loss of down, penalty for intentional grounding and killed Green Bay's drive. Instead it was a gift by the refs. Un ******* believeable.

I agree with your general point but I don't think you can call "in the grasp" sack and intentional grounding. The play is dead with the sack. The roughing seemed to be a makeup for the Dez call.

This time I thought the refs gave us some breaks. Not an excuse this time.

Didn't Matthews get away with the same thing when Dak was sliding?

First off, it was a sack so it can't be intentional grounding - it's one or the other. Secondly, there was no reason for Mayowa to lower his head and hit Rodgers when the ref was waving his arms over his head and blowing the whistle. Rodgers wasn't going anywhere. It's just a lineman trying to get in a shot, and he got flagged for it.

The refs didn't lose this game. A defense that forced one punt and produced zero turnovers lost this game.

A personal foul is a personal foul, in this case spearing. That is completely in control of the player that commits it. In other words sheer stupidity.

no

 

[MrMavsMan]

i understand it was a crappy call but we got a gift by personal foul against dez that turned into a td. game was reffed pretty fair. we just left to much time for rodgers and we didnt adjust wt all to start the half. This is 4 games now Jason has had the team come out flat and produce zero scores in the 3rd. we scored 0 in 3rd vs giants, den, rams and now packers.

What do you mean? They still owe us for the "original" Dez call.

On the heels of the Rams game where the Rams scored on 9 of 11 posessions.

Weren't we on the receiving end of one of these calls as well?

The play was not blown dead. It was a live play.

 

[TimHortons]

The refs handed us a touchdown on the first drive of the game with that bogus penalty in the endzone. Stop using the refs as an excuse. If that had happened to us people would be delirious.

 

[jimmy40]

if Rogers was a millisecond slower ducking that was a guaranteed suspension coming.

That’s absolutely not what happened. Erin was trying to escape. Even made a throw to no receiver despite being clearly in the pocket.


To top it off he hardly made contact to a ducking Erin tenths of a second after he released it.


You’re not able to process properly what happened.

Hd is your friend and worth it.

 

[Verdict]

The ref should have blown the play dead but he didn't and our player didn't spear him.

 

[MrMavsMan]

no it was blown dead as a sack. that is why the ball was at the 19. it was a 15 yard penalty frim the spot of the sack. Even on live gameday they called it a sack.

Self loathing is cool. Except never.

How can it be both a sack and grounding?

Oh, it can't.

My verdict? Loss of credibility
