Just curious if there is any public grading system that rates/grades NFL refs each week. I would be curious to see the score after this game.

Props to Garrett for being nice and fiery to them all day.

I had more of a problem with all the bad spots they had at the beginning of the game. They constantly short changed us a half yard or so in the first half, to the point Garrett had to challenge them on it.

I wasn't a fan of some of the penalties, but yeah, the spots and whistle in particular are what frustrated me. Pass interference is subjective & heat of the moment. Bad spots should never be that screwed up so consistently.

Jerome Boger is the biggest clown of all refs. Yo, dipstick, yes you can challenge if the ball was loose prior to the whistle. The ball came out at contact.

It's hard when the ref is too dumb to understand the question in the challenge. And he barely speaks English when making his calls.

The interference on Wilcox was bogus, too, because the ball was wildly uncatchable. There were many, many more.

Horrible game by a horrible crew.

Uncatchable or not, I hope the DB coach gets all over Wilcox. I think it was close, but the fact is he had bracket coverage there. No reason to ever get even close to interfering, because worst case is he catches it and gets dropped immediately. Go for the pick or swatch but stay clean on contact.

I always kind of feel the Cowboys are getting hosed when I am watching the game and I'm emotionally involved, but then I watch other games during the course of the day and the same crap is happening to other teams also.

There are a few games that it seems lopsided and I'm not just referring to games where the Cowboys are involved; however, the majority of it is just incompetence. A lot of the refs are just not very good at their jobs.

They supposedly get graded, but it's not public information as far as I know.

I was really upset by the T McClain strip and recovery that we got screwed on. Dude lost possession of the ball WAY before the whistle was blown. Sickening.

Was a very good play by T McClain.

'Jason Garrett, what did you think about the quick whistle on Terrell McClain's strip-fumble?' Pause...."What do you think I thought about it?"

Then he went on to say that he tried after the play to explain his position on the play and why it should have been a fumble. Very tactfully moving the topic to what happened, rather than questioning the decision again after the fact.

And yes, the officiating was really frustrating yesterday. I'm not a big one for calling foul about referee bias, but it was one of those games where you feel the refereeing was directly involved with the outcome of the game, and that shouldn't happen.

yeah I asked the question yesterday if Garrett could've challenged that there was a fumble before the whistle INSTEAD of challenging forward progress.

it looked like the ball was coming out way before the whistle had blown, seems like that should be a challengable play..
