It was on Hurd not Miles

[camelboy]

Wade just said on his PC that the league just informed him that it wasn't Miles leapfrog, but Hurd's hand gesture standing next to Roy that got the penalty.

 

[Avaj]

Listening 103.3 ESPN and listened to Wade few minutes ago and said he was
told by Carl Johnson it wasn't on Miles. It was on Roy and someone else doing Longhorn sign. Anyone catch what I'm talking about and can explain better.

Posting from iPhone don't know why it is showing up like that.

 

[YosemiteSam]

Come on Wade, you know what you've got to do! :laugh2:

 

[TheCount]

Now that makes more sense, although it's still a lame flag. I was wondering who that was mimicing Roy.

 

[burmafrd]

That makes it even dumber. So a guy can leap frog another player but a guy holding up a hand is worse?

 

[tupperware]

Aren't players mimicking each other when they chest bump? God this league is stupid.

what it was, roy williams did the texas hook them horn sign and sam hurd came right behind him and did horn sign too, thats by rule, whether or not if ticky tacky or not, but thats why the penalty was enforced, not miles austin leapfrogging

wade said that a ref told him during the game, that the penalty was on austin for leap frogging,

now is that tacky or what from the refs?

what was Turds..I mean Hurds gesture?

Edit***just saw CJs post..why is that a penalty?

 

[CowboyMcCoy]

O, here we go. Blame Roy for being proud and representing the finest university in the country.

Here scapegoat, scapegoat....

was sam hurd for doing the horn hook them sign right after roy williams did it

this shows that refs are watching cowboys intently, and cowboiys are going to have to play smart and focused

 

[Don Corleone]

They called the penalty on 19, not 17. I think the refs and the NFL are reaching for an explanation to a bad call.

 

[DanteEXT]

Makes a bit more sense..... I guess. May look more like a coordinated routine.

Very interesting.

by nfl rule on excessive touchdown celebration, 2 players can celebrate, which actually says to effect that players shouldnt be allowed to chest bump either, but other teams do it too and dont get called

talking about ticky tacky refs

should be loud and clear now, refs are watching all cowboys players now for any violation, whether or not that is right, its way it is

so players have to stay focused and alert and play smart

Am telling you guys...this and the flag they threw and then decided no call..all added up to impact the game. How? it caused confusion, disruption of our play.
Although am sad we lost, the moment they canceled Miles's TD I said we are playing 2 teams here (Vikes and Refs) and no1 wins against the refs.

they are, wade said one ref told him on sidelines that the penalty was on austin

but now its not but on hurd

thats ticky tacky refs looking for anything to flag on the cowboys

 

[Everlastingxxx]

The league is a joke. I saw the Chiefs Bowe WR do a sticky hand with ball celebration. Using a ball as a prop...of course, no flag thrown. Chris Johnson can mock the Cowboys logo...of course, no flag. Same **** every year.

Well, you can't "choreograph" anything.

Well, unless it's a chest bump. Or a special handshake. Or a "Mile High Salute". Or any one of a thousand things that routinely go on after a touchdown in any NFL game the Cowboys aren't playing in.

That is what I heard, too.

If you watch the replay, you can see the back judge go up to Austin after the leap frog, but not throw his flag. Looked like he was trying to stifle the celebrating. I don't know if he was the same official who threw the flag later, but he didn't do it immediately.

It isn't so much looking for a reason to flag them, it is the fact that they may have acknowledged it was a bad call, but then noticed on film that Hurd gave the hook 'em sign, and pinned it on him as an explanation.

The flag was called on Austin. If Hurd's sign was the reason for the flag, then they should have called it that way to begin with!!
