With all the complaining and whining about the officiating I just wanted to point out the first drive of the packers that lead to a field goal. Was it me or was demarcus ware NOT offsides and in fact just got a great jump?

When Favre had the completion on third and long to get into range did the play clock not expire?

I think the officiating went both ways as far as questionable calls.

BTW did anyone see the interview Ed Werder had with Tony after the game. He said the same old " we gotta stay focused blah blah blah one game at a time yada yada yada...." Then as Ed werder was signing off, he said " there you have it tony romo is now the cowboys leading td passer of all time with 33". and tony leaned into the mic saying "Geez?"(in a sarcastic way) How do you not like this guy?
 
It looked like Ware was close to being offsides but wasn't IMO. And yes the play clock was at 0 on that play you mentioned. But Harris probably did take the ball from TO. It evens out most of the time.

He wasn't offsides. And notice how he is a yard deep into his rush before any of the other Dlineman even pick up their hands.

Great clip. And yes, the play clock was at "0" before the ball was snapped.

Actually, it appears Ware may have been keying on the center's head movement. When the head goes up Ware moves. He's actually moving at the exact time the ball is snapped. He was so quick the refs couldn't believe it.
