Raiders get PI call to beat Dallas but don’t today on a more egregious non call

Hurts the Boys twice..

All the Cowboys had to do was hold the Raiders to 30 points in regulation. Washington held them to 15.

I'm NOT one to take up for officials, but as I understand it you can get away with the hand on the hip. Yes, I still think we got screwed.

like that's kind of the point. these wishy washy PI calls accounted for like a majority of their points.

I hate WFT and I wish they lost.

But this was not a penalty. He was looking back for the football and the jersey grab did not impede the receivers' route. Just the way I see it.

Not PI. This is getting embarrassing. Please, stop it.

 

[CWR]

It was a good non call. That's how to officiate a game.

Now just be universal with it, instead of picking and choosing when to let em play.

 

[rambo2]

explain how pulling a jersey to slow down a player possibly a step costing him the catch not affect the outcome of the play?

Don't even ask them. They can't give you a good answer because there isn't one. It is a penalty and it gets called 90% of the time. The refs let it go this time.

What's embarrassing is the number of people that don't know the rules.

 

[rambo2]

But A Brown does tha its a penalty guaranteed....he has the reputation of being handsy now..

It is a penalty against Dallas all day every day. It would be a penalty on just about everybody because it is a penalty.

But, as the OP pointed out, that would have been a PI call against Dallas. I agree with the OP.

Of course it would be, because it is a penalty.

If only it was always called that way. The problem is the inconsistency of these calls.

 

[JoeKing]

They would have got the call if they were playing the Cowboys. It's all a continuation of that petty mind game the league likes to play.

 

[Vanilla2]

Of course we’d be arguing that wasn’t a penalty.

nuh uh

 

[Brooksey]

It's a penalty you can't grab the jersey and hold up the WR, Period. Would it have been a flag against Anthony Brown? Yes at least three flags would have been thrown

 

[Aviano90]

Diggs does it all the time. The entire league does it and it is a penalty. You can't grab the receiver and pull him away from the ball. It's a penalty. The defenders do it when they are beat.

Do you seriously want that weak crap to be a penalty? If so, let them just throw a flag for any finger laid on a receiver 5 yards down field. It didn’t impede the receiver one bit. Good Lord, let’s just move to flag football already. And Rambo is your username? Change it.

Since you are so smart and can see things. Can you explain what defensive holding is?

 

[MarcusRock]

Waaaahhhh. Cowboys are victims.

Every other post is, "if that were the Cowboys ... (insert whiny victim stance)." I mourn the loss of masculinity 'round these parts.

 

[adbutcher]

Neither were PIs
