Wow, Jerry finally decides to say something after all these years of getting screwed by the NFL.

Because its getting old. I'm tired seeing my Cowboys have to beat a team and the refs almost every Sunday. Not saying we should get all the calls and heck a few more should have been called on us. But when the game is on the line and your blowing obvious calls its frustrating.

I mean, two penalties is pretty awful.

But Jerry looks petty here. If he wants to do something about it, he might want to walk in his boy Garrett's office and tell he needs to work the officials more as that study shows it may actually get you calls.
He's the only one that can get away with calling out officiating

Mo was nuts. He went all Richard Sherman. But that's the point. Sherman plays like that every game, and he's the greatest CB ever, right?
Yeah it's like he's just daring them to throw a flag. Luckily he got away with most of the night

Refs didn't do us in - we did.
I get what you are saying but NO.
This is the NFL. Most games come down to a few key plays.
The packers were put into field goal range on a garbage PI that took an interception away.
Then the refs ignored a rear naked choke on the play that put the packers into FG range to win the game.
This idea that self blame and self hate is needed is just ignoring the reality of the closeness and situational penalties of the NFL.

I watched with about 15 non cowboys fans and their mouths were wide open in disgust at this happening 2 out of 3 years both against the packers.

Congratulations NFL...now your ratings will plummet. That's all I got to say.

Lets not forget them not calling a DPI when they tackled Witten after he'd beaten the LB on him. I think there's at least 10-11 points that you can basically just say the officials gave to the packers to enable them to win by 3.

Probably because when the refs are screwing you over, you typically lose.

There were bad calls against both teams, had GB lost, their fans would be saying the refs screwed them over.

Will Jerry submit a tape of the final play and highlight the WWE move against Irving and ask for clarification on the holding rules so we know how to coach our offensive linemen?

I still think the worst call was the non-hold on Witten. The one ref was looking right at the play and the DB had his arm wrapped around his waist. Even Buck was wondering where the flag was.
That was a terrible non call. The guy was tackled inside the 5 yard line. The bullcrap 12 men in the huddle was pretty bad also. It's like when a player isn't lined up on the LOS and the refs give them a vocal warning and rarely throw the flag. I could see if Butler was trying to gain some competitive advantage by running on the field. He clearly just thought he was in the game and then the play changed.
