PI Michael Gallup endzone

[rnr_honeybadger]

Yea, let's scream at the ref instead of the incompetent QB with the underthrow - again.

 

[Loso86]

Could have gone either way. I hate the officiating crew, they are too flag happy.

That could not go both ways, it was a clear PI on the defense

 

[cowboys1732]

I just want to see constituency in a game with their calls. They way they called that game and as flag happy as they were, I don’t know how the heck it wasn’t since he ran through Gallup with his arms up. But whatever, Dallas played like crap and did not deserve to win.

 

[eastcoastfan]

Nope. No foul.

If the were Anthony Brown it’s a foul all day.

With our redzone woes we could have had first and goal at the 1 and I'm not sure we score 7 anyway.

Even if we scored they took so much time off the clock running the ball which was weird, it's an eyesore watching our offense in the redzone since game 1 and we would have needed a stop and another TD to win. Odds of that extremely low.

I just saw it again on the local news. It for sure was pass interference. No doubt about it and yes it would have made a difference.

Another call I don't understand is, that the Cards got 12 men and an offside, those should be pre-snap fouls and give us a free play, how the hell an offensive holding would offset those?

 

[Creeper]

In all honesty that was PI. Ball should have been placed at the 1. I can't for the life of me figure out why the flag was picked up. Could McCarthy have challenged that?

That was PI. In fact, A similar play occurred in the Steelers-Raiders game and 3 flags were thrown. The DB was not playing the ball and he made contact with Gallup before the ball arrived. That was a huge call in the game.

But honestly, the play calling in those goal to go situations was unimaginative. McCarthy needs to do a better job there.

 

[FoxF]

You tackle a WR before the ball gets there is not under thrown its PI

 

[CWR]

There were several huge 'misses' by the refs like the safety that was overlooked and magically, most of our huge plays were brought back with a ticky tack phantom foul

Yeah the refs were trash. In a lot of cases I'd blame them for the loss, but this team wasn't ready to play regardless. It was a well earned L.

 

[Gaede]

Definitely PI. Pretty blatant. Would love to know what they discussed to result in picking up the flag.

 

[CWR]

Another call I don't understand is, that the Cards got 12 men and an offside, those should be pre-snap fouls and give us a free play, how the hell an offensive holding would offset those?

Yeah I thought the same. We are using common sense, so I'm sure there's some obscure procedural clause that explains it all.

 

[DogFace]

The safety wasn't missed. The penalty began at around the 1 yard line. By rule, that is not a safety.

They made contact there yes. Wasn’t the hold in the end zone though?

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

Aaaaaaaaand......the refs.

LOL

 

[DogFace]

If Dallas had come out and taken care of business as they should have and played to their capabilities, the DPI call/non-call would be a moot point.
If the Cowboys are counting on refs to make subjective calls such as PI to help them win games…well it’s going to be a long season.

Yes. However sometimes you don’t bring your A game. The refs always need to bring their A game and not make clear mistakes that make overcoming an off day harder.

 

[Irvin88_4life]

I thought the PI on Bland was a bad call. Looks like their legs got accidently tangled.

That's right. They tripped over each other when Bland looked back for the ball.

I didn't think that was the right call and it was on 3rd down. Seen a few calls when Arizona was stopped but a penalty extended their drive leading to points.

 

[XXLMike]

It was a great football plate. Great timing there was clearly no PI in the end zone. We did not deserve it. We do not deserve the game.

 

[XXLMike]

Aaaaaaaaand......the refs.

LOL

The refa had nothing to do with the Cowboys, being completely undisciplined, unprepared, poorly coached, poorly, motivated, overconfident, sloppy, soft, weak and embarrassing.

 

[XXLMike]

In all honesty that was PI. Ball should have been placed at the 1. I can't for the life of me figure out why the flag was picked up. Could McCarthy have challenged that?

That was not PI dude that was a great football player. Have you ever played football? That was perfect timing and the defender has a right to defend the ball it’s 50-50..

 

[RonnieT24]

Even if you pick up the flag on the PI how is it then not illegal contact 20 yards down the field? Since he OBVIOUSLY made contact and said contact was not initiated by Gallup who was falling away. The officiating was horrible and frankly made it hard to stay mad at the guys for how they played because it seemed no matter what they did the refs were not about to let them win that game. I don't believe in fixes.. but I don't consider them as inconceivable as some others might. Something was up with the officiating yesterday and it sapped the energy from our guys.. Maybe they had gotten the pregame memo from Goodell that they were instructed to lose the game?
