Even that chick with the footlocker outfit that the NFL lets on the field once in a whole could have gotten that call right.

Call two holding against us.


Call no OPI on a clear call.


Remember Gallup last year.


I don’t want to hear ANY EXCUSES for the refs.

they just screwed us.

They definitely made there presence known at the end of the game

I'm not going to say that we lost because of the refs, but, they didn't help. The thing that annoys me is the timing of their decisions to call/not call penalties. So they're going to be quick to call us on holding on our final drive, yet, when Tampa gets their final drive I see Tampa OL literally wrapping their arms around our rushers necks, and, no calls. And then of course the missed OPI. If you're going to start throwing flags then make sure it's even across the board.

Oh, and I still don't understand how Tampa can take their helmet off on the field with no penalty? Different rules in Tampa apparently.

Not only take it off but slam it down!

As a new zone member, I have to say it's pretty surprising how many whiners there are in the fan base here. As a fan it's embarrassing.

Oh my god you are right. I have never seen a fan base complain about a bad call. Fans of other teams would never do that at all. A poster complaining about a bad call in a cowboys message board is a total outrage!

:laugh:

I posted about the helmet thing too....our players and coaches need to be schooled to instantly point those things out....and our DB should have complained about the PI....he did nothing!!

I dont think anyone cares at this point. Cowboys looked absolutely off the charts tonight. Guys like you are in for a long year. Either get on board or get off. The choice is yours.


Thanks Roy. I appreciate the pep talk.

If that’s OPI at the end of the game then tonight was also OPI. End of story. It’s hard to enjoy games when it seems like some sort of ref call always screws us.

Its Tom Brady and maybe the best receiving corps in Football

I keep hearing Tampa is the best defense in football. They gave up 29 . . . do they suck.

They were able to stifle Dak in the red zone . . .maybe that was the difference
Wether its Brady or Sam Darnold - this D will find a way to mess up.

It is clear refs have one hand on the flag in these late game situations looking for defensive PI especially for a tom brady team but not offensive PI
