Twitter: Refs missed a safety call on Arizona

[CalPolyTechnique]

Yeah, the same play you say demarcus Lawrence wasn't held on.

Outstanding. You should be a ref

Lol, the “same play,” right…

 

[J_Allen]

Lol, the “same play,” right…

You know what I meant. Don't play stupid.

 

[J_Allen]

Lol, the “same play,” right…

I know man. God forbid we want a fairly called game.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

What’s funny is all these incredulous fans are complaining about this non-call, but would be ip in total arms if it was called against us.

That ain’t a hold.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

You know what I meant. Don't play stupid.

Stupid is trying to say it’s the same type of play.

It wasn’t.

 

[J_Allen]

Again, you know what I meant. How many times do I have to repeat myself to you?

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

I know man. God forbid we want a fairly called game.

So “fair” in your mind is if we get two defensive PIs then they must get two; if we get three holding calls then they must get three holding calls, right?

Fair is calling holding penalties fairly throughout the course of the game.

Do you understand or do I need to break it down more?

You can't in any way shape or form tell a hold from a still picture. Don't know why people insist on doing that for motion penalties.

Here are videos and it was not a hold. No material restriction or twisting, turning, hooking, etc. Plus DLaw used a rip move which has an exception in the rules. Again, people are reacting to DLaw's reaction. Wasn't a hold.

A player doesn't react like that unless he's feeling some resistance in his shoulders. So I don't think it was just a love tap. All it takes is a little tug of the shoulders to kill a player's momentum there.

How can it be called “fairly?”

Every holding, pass interference, roughing the passer, or any other penalty EVER called on the Cowboys is unjust.

Think I’m exaggerating?

Check the weekly game thread, lol.

Are you kidding me?

Now folks are simply lying to themselves.

You’re telling me you haven’t seen nor accused an opposing defensive player of feigning a hold on one of our offensive linemen?

We're talking about these two penalties in this thread and you're defending the refs.

Embarrassing

Yeah, which goes back to my original comment about you attempting to call them the same play, smh.

You see what you want see. Have at it man. There’s power in being the victim.

It's the same hold, genius.

For the third time, you knew what I meant. It's just like arguing with a four year old.

Go troll somebody else. Seriously.

And that should have been a safety, but I'm glad you're okay with that non-call. Don't worry, we all know it was Lawrence's fault for not getting there and besides, we shouldn't notice what happened.

Bullcrap.. the hold against Schultz on Zeke's 15 yard run was a good call. He held.. the bad part was that he didn't have to. That guy had no chance to make the tackle. The facemask on Watkins? or was it Osa? was a legit call. Borderline because he grabbed the top of the helmet then moved down to the facemask but he didn't let go immediately so good call. But again it's not JUST the calls that go against the Cowboys that bothers anyone.. It's when the other team does damn near the exact same thing and no flag comes out that people get up in arms. All we ask is that it be called the same way. Dak has been whacked upside the head a dozen times and I believe has drawn one flag all season. Why protect some QBs from shots to the head but not others? The grabbing Tank's shoulder pad as he closed in on Murray was one of the easiest calls in the game to see. The guy grabbed him, turned him and never let go until Murray had escaped. Tank probably ran 3-4 steps with the guy holding on.. No way the refs could have missed that. And again I keep coming back to the VERY obvious holding Green got away with on Diggs on the first option run where Parson's knocked him out of bounds. A ref is standing there.. 10 feet away looking right at the play.. but swallowed his whistle in NBA parlance. Leaving me to ask .. Why?

The video makes it look less blatant than the photo I posted. That being said, I do think he was tugged a bit from behind. Typically when others try to sell calls on our oline, our guys are actually holding.

 

[RonnieT24]

So grabbing a guys shoulder pads after he's gotten by you is not holding?

What universe do you live in?

One that hates the Cowboys.. isn't it obvious.. This dude defends the refs no matter how bad they screw the Cowboys.. I'm sure he has footage that shows (him) that Edmunds entire body was down before the ball came out..

I agree it would have been a touchy holding call. They could have called it, but I’m not mad that they didn’t.

What are you failing to compute?

I know you’re attempting to say it’s the “same play/hold.”

It isn’t.

This safety for the Cowboys ended up being a touchdown for the Cardinals. I was heated when I saw this play and extra heated after they put up 7.

So that's a 9 point swing and we lost by 3. Hhmmmm interesting. Also would have changed momentum in the early game to Dallas. How many holding penalties did our offensive linemen get?
