Norm Hitzges: Barber did NOT get the first down...

[cowboyjoe]

yep, sometimes media talks to much

 

[DaBoys4Life]

norm has an agenda....

 

[Aikmaniac]

Can anyone explain what Collinsworth/Costas were talking about on NBC? I flipped over as they were going to commercial?

 

[Slammin Bran 23]

He got it.

 

[Nav22]

Irrelevant. Bad calls are part of the game, and that's a play that is reviewable by a coach's challenge.

If Barber was indeed stopped short, it's on the Bucs to challenge it.

They didn't. End of story.

...on the last gutsy 4th down play when the Cowboys went for it. He says Barber put his elbow down short of the 1st down. I say, "SHUT UP NORM!" Don't rain on my parade. What a win!

Norm is like Wick.lol.Lives off negativity.

Perhaps you should listen to the show and not just that one comment. Norm and the rest of the guys are giving the Cowboys alot of credit and praising especially the Defense.

Exactly, they were even extolling the virtues of Brad Johnson for throwing the ball just beyond the line of scrimmage.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

I don't know how Norm can even go there.

Me neither, but according to Norm we "should" have lost most of our games the last two and a half years. Usually we just win them by luck and/or the incompetence of our opponents.

He did say it was a great win, but then he started talking about how MB3 didn't get the first down. Funny how nobody on the field thought so.

if he didn't why didn't Chucky challenge?

oh we got away with a few false starts from flo. i'll take the win thank you very much. the refs were equally inept today it seems.

chuckle. don't know whether to laugh or cry. pathetic. i think i'll :cry3:

 

[Hypnotoad]

In norms defense he was talking about how he was watching the game and during it he thought MB3 didn't get the first down and was screaming to snap the ball just incase it was challenged. I don't think he was trying to diminish our win.

 

[Nexx]

love how norm assumes that if barber doesnt get the first, that the bucs automatically score a TD....

 

[Seven]

.......and Cutler didn't fumble. Or better yet; neither did Brady which took them to a SB and kicked off their run. Eat that Hinges. Rusty ones, that "squeak "as well.

Not sure how many times I saw AB going forward, when he was in motion today. He got flagged for it once, but I saw him do it EVERY single time he went in motion. No big deal, refs are never 100% accurate.
