How about some love for the refs on that Gallup touchdown?

Wish we could get that officiating crew or at least level of officiating next week.

Parsons actually got a holding call. (Maybe you can explain why that holding around his neck, which Aikman said was clearly a penalty, differs from all the holding calls he hasn't gotten since it came on the same move he's been making all year.)

There was a roughing-the-passer call and somehow it wasn't for someone laying a finger on Brady but for a defender roughing Dak. Can't remember the last time we got one.

And the only really controversial (missed) call I saw benefited us — Mukuamu holding in the end zone on the 2-point try. I think Aikman claimed that Mukuamu also committed pass interference earlier in the game, but it looked like good coverage to me.

9-0 with that ref
 
Someone seems to adhere to Bucks’ calls a little too much. When I heard him suggest that Gallup might have stepped out of the end zone, I knew an angel on this forum got her wings.

I agree, although it wasn't illegal touching.

That's what he meant by "pulled it out of the hat". Because the defender touched the ball, it wouldn't have been illegal touching even if he had stepped OB. (I think we need to find a better phrase than "illegal touching". Just typing that makes me feel like I'm going to be put on a watchlist.

Aikman also said TB's D-line holds a lot, to allow their LBs to make plays, but it was only called once. I don't know if that was the only time it happened in the game, but he made it seem like he thought it was happening frequently.

I think the difference is that Micah didn't bring his arm up, and effectively place the OL's arm around his shoulders, which is the exception stated in the rule.

All year y'all pretended to see inside their heads to say they're biased.
And some pretended to know what non-Cowboys team they rooted for as kids to make them angry at us as adults.

But on that Gallup touchdown, while the whole world was squinting to see if Gallup stepped out of bounds or not, they pull the illegal touching rule out of the hat noting that even if Gallup went out of bounds (was not conclusive he did) the defender touching the ball first allows Gallup to then be eligible to touch the ball for the TD. Great teamwork by the refs (and maybe New York) to bring the rulebook to light. The broadcasters didn't know it, don't remember if they asked the broadcast rules guy, and fans surely didn't know it. Put some respect on the refs name! Lol.

Yep Marcus got to admit if anything the refs gave us the benefit of the doubt last night was truly great to see Micah get a holding penalty called in his favor

You mean they did their job and made the correct call? I dont understand
 
There was never any conclusive video evidence that he stepped out of bounds. They called it a TD on the field and they had to stay with it. There was simply nothing there to overturn the call on the field.

Not many calls went against either team, and most of the ones that were made seemed to be fair. I hate roughing the passer, but when the defender gets his hand up into the QB's throat and then lands his full weight on him, that's textbook for what's called now.

We benefited from the one missed call that was noticeable, so that's a change from how it usually goes. Of course, I thought the holding call against Schultz was kind of ticky-tack, but he did grab the shoulder and impair the defender for a second at the point of attack.

That was the point no crazy calls, the roughing call was bad but nowhere near the Cousins call bad.

I would gladly take that officiating crew EVERY week.

You called it, I believe….Gallup: early and often

I didn't call it, per se. Just saw that as a means to an end of sparking the offense and Dak/the offense having a good game.

Didn't know they would do it, but glad they did after watching a few of the Bucs games from this year, and seeing the results they got.

Nice to know some of my fellow fans actually read stuff, though.
 
It was a very well reffed game. Other than a few holds on Micah not called, as usual.
The one defensive holding on the two point conversion missed, was not a game changing factor. The game was pretty much over at that point.
 
That was a huge call! Refs for the most part let these guys play with minimal penalities. Yes they let some holds go on both sides but rather them keep the flags in the pocket than slowing down the game with lots of yellows.
