Someone needs to review the pass interference rules again, I see.

And some need to review the pass completion rules when a WR goes up over a cornerback, stumbles and bumbles his way to the ground and loses the ball when he hits the ground. Some see that the same way you see the non interference.

Agreed....they also need to realize that Detroit may not have scored on that drive. AND they got the ball back with two minutes and timeouts. Lawrence gifted them a fumble recovery before getting a sack fumble to secure the win.

It's almost like you've never heard 'football move'.......

True, but everyone saying here that the Dez catch/non catch costs the Cowboys a victory at Green Bay when 1. it was not a touchdown if they rule it a catch with no guarantee they would have scored and 2. using the same anaolgy, If they would have scored Rodgers would have had almost four minutes to drive the Packers to the win. (it isnt like Dallas stopped a one legged Rodgers that afternoon) He drove them to the 20 without trying to score when time ran out. ) the Cowboys were not ripped out of anything that afternoon. If it was a bad call then they still had time to stop the Packers, and drive for the win. It wasnt like the catch non catch happened with seconds remaining. you cant have it both ways. The same ones arguing the Detroit "call" was not the same because the Lions still had time on the clock to do something about it are saying the Cowboys got robbed on a "call" but dismiss that the Cowboys still had time to do something about it.

If that's what Dez had done, you'd have a point.

The football gods are harsh, Rob. They give, and they take away.

This is where he tells you.........advancing the ball, 3 steps, move ball to dominant hand, dive, and reaching out for the pylon is not a football move

Oh, I thought you ended the conversation. No, this is where I tell you he has to control the ball when going to the ground. He didn't.

Look, i am not going to convince you it wasnt a catch and you are not going to convince me it was. The people that make the rules for a living say it wasnt. You can spin it any way you want, majic bullet, feet tangled, step, feet tangled some more, another step, stumble over the Shields leg again and another step while going to the ground, reaches out for the pylon while going to the ground, ball touched the ground, didnt touch the ground, not enough evidence it touched the ground, blah blah. When I saw it live, i thought it was a catch, when I saw the replay I saw he did not maintain control. End of story and the league agrees. No conspiracy against the Cowboys. Dez should have held onto the ball. If he had all the other stuff would be meaningless. And you guys would be screaming at your defense again on how a one legged gimpy QB came back and beat you. Now, this is where I end the conversation and stick to it.

Probably. It doesn't matter, because there's no interpretation of the word 'indisputable' that justifies overturning the call on the field in a booth review.
