Refs are really trying to get us these days...

That is not what that was. It was only a review. I know it was at first confusing and all, but that's all it was.

I had no idea an ankle being down, would be considered down by contact. I always heard shin, but never ankle. Doesn't matter tho, since Smiles got his after the fact.

How many flat out blatant holds on Spencer and Ware weren't called? I don't mind if they're debatable, but these were obvious holds that would have gotten a couple more sacks.

The Hold on Anderson was terrible....NOT a hold.

I agree . No wonder we have so much trouble blocking. If thats a hold then basically we have to play with our arm down to our side.

refs did blow some calls
Like the inteference with roy williams when huff hit roy in back before ball got there
The horse collar on miles austin, the refs said that he let go, but if we just grab a collar generally we get a penalty

so, yes there were some blown calls, and i too thought was a interview on an interview too till someone explained it to me

i also thought that a head coach couldnt throw a challenge flag the last 2 minutes before the half or last 2 minutes of the game,

and the holding call on deion anderson was tacky too

Cable didn't challenge the Austin td. The refs called it a td on the field and then they reviewed it.

Until the NFL gets off its butt and hires FULL TIME OFFICIALS (the only team sport that does not) we are going to see lousy officiating.

The NBA has full time officials and they suck also.

They were bad, AGAIN, but I don't see how they were any worse than they have been in any other game. Pretty much par for the course.

I don't think it was stemming from some vendetta against us, either. I just think they arent' very good at what they're supposed to be doing out there.

The NBA sucks. Like soccer, I haven't been able to watch basketball in 15 years. It's garbage now.

That's why I usually only watch college bball. Well that and my team sucks. :laugh2:

I said it last week and I'll say it again. I think the refs use replay as a crutch. They make a call knowing it will get reviewed.

if you're running forward and let's say.. you stumble.. and your ankle hits as you're keeping yourself stable while balancing yourself up... no way they call an ankle down. It just doesn't happen. I've never seen an ankle being used to rule down by contact.

I thought there were as many as 3 plays (early in the game) where they got to our receivers before the ball did.

What made the Williams play especially bad is that Huff hooked the arm which gave him the pivot spot to go around and swat the ball. That is one of the text book looks for what is a PI call.

No doubt about that. And the PI's they missed on their DB's were pretty bad too, especially the first one where Huff just ran right through RW. With all the ticky tack stuff they call on our DB's, missing stuff like that just burns me up.

And then to miss some of the very obvious OL holds they had, but call that garbage on Deon Anderson is more proof of the league double standard when it comes to us.

True, .. and then some say you can't blame the refs.

But sometimes they do make "game-changing" calls that hurt us.

There is no way of knowing for sure, but maybe we come from 10 down to beat the Packers, .. but not from down 17 when they blew the call when Felix recovered Romo's fumble.

It is frustrating when it changes the game.
