That was a gritty win

Ask them how he's supposed to get his head turned around when the WR has his facemask! Should have been a penalty on DET.

What was the official explanation? I could see it being ruled an uncatchable ball, but I assumed it was PI on Hitchens just like Aikman did.

I don't really care though, on balance the calls favored the Lions and we left with the victory.
 
I am getting hammered on Facebook about how Jerry has paid off the refs due to that PI call. My cousin said the NFL is like Pro Wrestling? HE's an idiot. Everyone saying the game was rigged. My response: " Good ole Refs, gotta lovem". lol

Time to start defriending anyone stupid enough to believe that BS. Ask them if that was the one moment in the last 2 decades he was waiting on to open his wallet for that purpose. Or have they just been ripping him off up until now?
 
Yep, I was supposed to watch the game with my church, I told em no, its probably better if I don't. Man, I was cussing up a storm the whole first half. Good thing I didn't, I would be in hell right now. But man, this was a heart attack waiting to happen. Great win, just saw Suh crying at the press conference. sweet. Man that was cool.
Sounds exactly like my game experience!
 
Romo came through when we needed him, but he was pretty bad for most of the game, and some of that beating was on him. He was not reading the defense fast enough and not seeing the blitzes. On one second down blitz, Witten saw it and stepped 1 yard across the line and turned...Romo could have given him the pass and picked up 7-8 yards easy for a 3rd and short. Instead, he panicked and rolled away for a sack and 3rd and 19. He was really off mentally, and his passes were floating due to late decisions that resulted in poor mechanics. He was clearly outplayed by Stafford who was as good tonight as he sometimes is erratic.

But Romo was Romo when he had to be and led us to sweet victory.

The Cowboys overcame more mistakes, bad calls, and poor offense than I thought was possible. This team is capable of anything.

If you watch that non-call on Hitchens, Pettigrew was holding and grabbing Anthony before the ball got there. Could have been offensive PI as far as I'm concerned.
 
Romo stood in there and took a beating, but the offensive line adjusted and sucked it up. The defense played hard and came up big. I prefer a win like this over a blowout. Hopefully, we can build on this and go to GB and keep the party going.

Agreed brother

Unless the officials come out and explain it, I think that is what was told to Lions HC, I have an issue with them stating the foul and everything and then picking up the flag. I can see how that would piss most off.

Bottom line, we caught a break that we normally never get; breaks that normally go to the opposing team that we never could recover from. It's about damn time!

I agree the only way they could have bungled it worse is if they changed the call and say offensive PI. Now I will have to hear lions fan saying they didn't lose but were robbed by the officials who were pretty terrible that game.

So why did the NFL let Suh play if it was rigged? Did their punter rig the game with a 5 yard shank?

Facebook is a bonanza for dummies

Just refer to the atrocious running into the kicker call early in the game. It was a makeup call.

During his post-game presser, Tony Romo said he figured out what Detroit was doing early and was going to burn them if they continued doing it.
