Intentional grounding on Ryan

Just getting around to watching the whole Atlanta game (couldn't bring myself to do it earlier) and at the end of the first half, Ryan is under pressure, doesn't get outside of the pocket and just throws it out of bounds with no receiver around. Why was that not called intentional grounding?

Refs didn't do us many favors in that first half.

Let it go! Salud!

I'm a fan of consistency, and I just don't see it. I can understand on the subjective calls, but when you see one quarterback not actually get hit but it draws a roughing penalty and things like last Sunday when the defender actually hits Dak in the face and it not be called, it's just a sad testimony against the officiating Dallas has been receiving.

For the record, we don't beat Atlanta with better officiating. I just hate that there doesn't seem to be an equality to the officiating.

I also didn't like the PI on that end zone pass that Ryan overthrew. It was not catchable.

The worst thing the officials allowed last week was stopping the clock...for any reason. That game needed to end a lot faster than it did.

I blame the refs.

no holding calls in 6 games against the opponent including a Washington team that had 4 of 5 new OL for that game? yeah, zero collusion against Dallas (where's my tin foil hat when I need it, I'll be right back....)

When Goodell walks out to announce the 2018 NFL draft we need to chant sell out and Cheater after every pick.

Didn’t Romo get an IG penalty in that 07’ playoff game against the Giants when he basically launched the ball deep, outta bounds?

Yes, while he wasn't under pressure (a requirement for the penalty).
