I was hoping that I wouldn’t have to be the one to say it. Refs paid or bias?

Penalties per game:

Cowboys = 6.2
Cowboys Opponents = 5.9

There's no evidence of this "pay off" or "bias", unless your idea of a fairly called game is 20 penalties on our opponent and none on the Cowboys.
There is a difference on penalties called. Some are judgement calls. Some are offsides, 12 men on the field, etc.

Last 5 games they have judged that we have held 17 times and our opponent once(a meaningless call on a receiver) Holds are pretty common in football.

Showing the penalties and saying we’re only 7th worst or whatever is meaningless. The judgment calls are consistently going against us. Dak was hit in the head or face more than once. Please show me when we’ve gotten away with that type of penalty. Hell, we didn’t even hit Rodgers in the head, just lead with the helmet and missed, and they call that.

All penalties aren’t the same. If they correctly call that facemask we have a first and likely would score. Some change the game.

You rarely see the other team or coach upset about a call vs us. They have very little reason to complain.
