Is there any doubt now that officials are crooked?

I have to admit, that play action pass/sack on the 1 yard line could have been a career ender for McCarthy. Luckily they scored later but man that was an awful play on first down.

I think it had to be a miscommunication because both DEs came free. Maybe Dak just kept it on his own?

I thought the Dolphins would score at least 30 on us today. The fact that the defense held them to 19 until that last second FG was a pretty good job overall. But the offense that completely stalled after the 1st two drives failed again on the road.
The fumble killed us otherwise we win

I see it as well that refs seem to screw us, but why have a conspiracy against the richest most popular team in the world in any sport to keep them from winning? I know Goodell is a Giants fan but still makes no sense.
It doesn't need to be a league-wide conspiracy.

If you're an NFL fan but not a Cowboys fan, chances are you HATE the Cowboys, right?

So if 10% of NFL fans are Cowboys fans, that means most of the other 90% HATE the Cowboys. Daily sports talk shows freely admit they rip the Cowboys after a loss because it draws big ratings.

Back to the refs...

If you're an NFL referee, chances are you were an NFL fan before becoming a referee.

Do the math. Most NFL referees probably grew up HATING the Cowboys.

Yes, their job is to be unbiased, but when it's a bang-bang 50/50 type of play that will decide a game, or a season?

Pretty easy to call it against the Cowboys and claim you were just doing your job, EVEN IF it's a subconscious bias against them.

It does no have to make sense. It is happening and inexplicable except for directed corruption from the top. Blatant missed calls and ghost calls. How do you we explain all of this.
If the fix was in why would the refs call 3 PIs on Miami on Dallas final drive? 2 of them on incomplete 4th down passes?

If you can't see that there's a vendetta against the Cowboys coming from the league itself and Roger Goodell, you simply don't have a knack for seeing things as they are, which is a form of intelligence.

This vendetta and blatant bad officiating against the Cowboys has been going on FOR YEARS.

This bias against Dallas is as much of and many times even more of a problem than their actual football weaknesses themselves.

the cowboys failures are not because of the refs. The cowboys get screwed like tons of teams do bc it’s a game that’s dictated by humans and you will always have human errors with a game played this fast.

The refs make mistakes every week in every game. The cowboys need to figure out a way to still win games like many other teams do.

I don't get it?
Miami had plenty of time afterward to make the last second score. You think the refs cared about not calling those irrelevant PI on the Dolphins since they knew they had plenty of time to come back and win the game there at the end. And they sure as heck are not going to call any holds against the players defending Micah and Co.

Two PIs on incomplete 4th down passes were irrelevant?

Complete bull crap. Cowboys are getting hosed, period. Stop TRYING to sound like the guy who's not making excuses, when it's not an excuse in the least. It's a REASON.

Are they calling ANY holds on the players who are defending Micah, EVER? Even though anybody with half a brain and one eye can see all the blatant holding against him? Did they not have plenty of time to make the game winning score?

I’m telling you, coaches now need a challenge flag or even two per game for penalties called or not called. It all should be reviewable. Too many games decided on calls or no calls.
I am fine with this actually. Just let the team use their challenge on anything they want— appeal goes to NY for a review on anything related to a penalty to be called or picked up— and you don’t extend the game beyond it’s current timetable

The refs are a giant problem and are determining far too many outcomes. Gotta give teams some agency to at least try and have a more balanced and equitable game

Stop crying.
Than you! Dear Lord! It’s insufferable now! So the refs were responsible for Miami driving the length of the field before the hit?

Greg Olsen was apoplectic about numerous no calls of holding on recievers and linebackers and the bogus call against Parsons on the roughing the passer. Just a travesty. Dallas has no chance at winning anything. The NFL is a corrupt organization.
Stop crying like our players
