How is stating facts trolling?

I ASSUME you realize the refs aren't "out to get us" and that over time, we benefit from incorrect calls as much as we are hurt by them. In fact, back in the 90s, Irvin got away with so much by the refs he single handedly impacted how Off PI is called... without his constant illegal pushing off which the refs always and incorrectly allowed, who knows if we would have won all 3, or any, of those superbowls.

That said.... I do agree that seeing these old codgers old-man-running around out there in stripes is crazy, for a mega corporation like the NFL. Just goes to show its a good ole boys league.


You are not stating facts at least none that I see, and how did we benefit in kind to those 3 penalties we received in OT when the packers got the ball?
I am not entirely blaming the Refs for the loss, what I am saying is they are incompetent and the 3rd down totally obvious non-called PI simply proves that point.

Not saying the refs didn’t suck cause they did but let’s not act like this team actually played well tonight. They deserved to lose like the clowns they are. I’d say I hope they are fired up and mad for next week but we all know they’ll come out and suck again like they always do. It’s best if us fans stop giving them money so they’ll actually work towards winning for once.

No, they didn't deserve to lose. We were easily marching down the field until the refs stuffed our drive with a phantom holding call. Micah Parson can literally get wrung around the neck, but no penalty, but they call that weak call... then they clearly miss a SUPER easy to see pass interference. They didn't want Aaron Rodgers and the Packers to lose 5 in a row period.

Some fans will disagree with me, but ever since Jerry went after Goodell's compensation, the refs been screwing the Cowboys over.

#23 clearly committed PI vs CeeDee. I was not surprised at the no call. Big play. Critical play. Didn't get called even though everyone and they Mamma saw it:


So I say the refs are crooked or are betting on games. Something ain't right. SMH

Just like they missed Steele’s false start on Lamb’s TD?

Lemme guess…

Now, now we have football purist who read these threads. Can't be all complaining about refs integrity on here. As the purist will tell you that being a conspiracy theorist isn't allowed in the game of football. But I ain't one of them purist. I get sick and tired of us doing something good in a game just to see laundry on the field and the calls going against us. Especially in crucial situations. No calls when our receivers get mugged and Micah being held/choked on most every play and our linemen being called for ticky tack holding calls especially after a good run play or pass play that makes yardage. Happens at Lambeau on the regular when we play there.
Hell it happens in Dallas, see last Thanksgiving for corruption. It's the biggest thing ruining the game of football right now.

That first pic is obviously photoshopped, but did that ref in the 2nd pic actually do a Lambeu leap?? If so, that's pitiful!!

It does not happen just against Dallas. There are terrible calls/missed calls every week in every game. It is incompetence at the highest level of officiating and the NFL doesn't care to do anything about it.

....guys, Dallas went to 4th qtr up by 14. The Micah led defense failed to stop them. DQ gaffed that game.

For how good this defense is or was. The OT should have never happened.

From dc.com

Tolbert said he had checked with the down judge Sarah Thomas.

"I lined up, looked to the side and she told me to back up," Tolbert said. "I did."


Tolbert didn’t back up enough.
Yeah. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the ref and receiver not get that right. I mean are there very many offsides on receivers for lining up offsides, asking, then being told not enough? Don’t they usually tell them when they’re off sides and instruct them where to move to?

Weird and seemingly unique play.

Yeah, I saw that.

I’ll go with Tolbert’s recounting of the play since he was directly involved.
Poor Tolbert. He fell for that referee ploy. Sort of like when you're a kid, and your uncle tells you to pull his finger. Gotta learn the hard way!! :p

What happened yesterday with the pantomime holding calls an non calls on PI simply can't happen. And the refs should be held accountable.

Even if it was a bad call, it didn’t cost us the game.
it absolutely did cost us THIS game, and I usually am not going to say that about bad calls. it was completely obvious PI on a drive we were making serious headway with in OT .

Thank you. Someone else knows we need full time accountable refs in the nfl.
You bet, most folks think they are full time and they answer to the NFL but not so they are more of a 3rd party. We need to keep the heat on so the NFL will not renew thier "Part time Officials Union" contract
