We had 2 accepted penalties... 3 forced turnovers.. and lost..

That aside, Is the team getting smarter, coaching getting better, or refs staying out of it?? (I think they could easily have called 10 holding penalties on the Jags O-Line).

It was nice to see a game where the officials stayed out of if.

It's nice to see the Cowboys finally getting smarter and committing less penalties.

On the other hand, there have been enough holding calls that weren't called against Houston and Jacksonville OL's to drive a man to cuss and drink.

When I rewatch games, I wonder what these refs are thinking when they see obvious holding but don't call it.

On the incomplete pass to Gallup in the end zone. On the replay, it sure looked like helmet to helmet contact by the defensive player. Can see Dak pointing to his head while talking to the ref! Not sure how they can miss that with him scrambling!

Dak never gets those calls unfortunately.

If was nice to see but truthfully it’s all about consistency….let’s not have 10 next week.

Amen, brother. The zebras really let the fellas play the game the way it should be played yesterday. It was refreshing to see the officials resist the temptation to make themselves a factor.

I wonder if Jerry has been having different members of the Goodell clan kidnapped each week for 3 hours?

LOL .......you can't make this up. This time last year, we lead the league in penalties. So we got that cleaned up but why are still seeing the same inconsistency?
