TO interfered with on 2 pt conversion n/m *Merge*

n/m .

 

[QT]

I thought he was too. The corner didn't even look back. But who cares when you have NICK FOLK!!!

 

[DWHITE11]

We won

 

[DanTanna]

He was interfered with. The DB pushed TO in the chest before the ball was there then raked TO's arm. Romo under threw it AGAIN!

 

[Wimbo]

I agree. But, it turned out to be a good thing. Winning outright is better than OT in an Away game.

Refs were trying hard for Buffalo tonight. Lots of really bad calls.

Shocking officiating. Losing count of the number of times McBriar is hit after his punts.

The pass interference was blatant. No excuse for the officials on that call.

 

[DanTanna]

OT would have been MUCH better. I have Romo, Witten and JJ on my fantasy team and I friggin lost by 0.15 points. Damn TO dropped that 22 yarder that was over turned. He dropped the endzone 2 pointer. Come on man!

I agree with everything other then Romo underthrew the ball. I think that was actually where he wanted to put that ball.

Yeah, this is troubling too. Did a rule change this offseason or something?

 

[Mr Cowboy]

TO should have caught the balls with his hands instead of letting it come into his body.....................

 

[gqlawyer1970]

Obviously Romo didn't have a good game, and I would agree that the ball could have been placed better, but that was one of his better throws of the night. TO still almost had the ball despite a blatant push off. How did they miss that? He never even turned to play the ball. That alone usually draws a flag. It did seem that the Cowboys were not getting many calls tonight.

The best part of it all is that the BSPNers who were openly rooting against the Cowboys (not really for the Bills, as Berman was) are deprived of showing the replays incessantly all week.

This week on ESPN Sportscenter, they'll replay three day old baseball games so they don't have to show the MNF highlights...

Totally disagree that ball needs to be thrown deeper so the db cant make a play on it. I hate the play call Romo has struggled big time on those type of passes. Plus there was no threat of the run without Barber in the backfield.

 

[Clove]

I have no clue about the interference, but I do know that TO is not clutch. He's an outstanding athlete, but when it's crunch time, he doesn't come through.

After that drop by TO on the play that would've gotten us a closer field goal, Romo did not go to him to put us in range again, using Barber and I think Crayton. Too bad Crayton doesn't have Romo speed.

The interference was blatant. But then again, the advantage on PI on the 2 point conversion goes to the defence. What is the penalty? They move the ball 1.5 yards closer and they get another shot at a 50 percent play? Its not like interference in the end zone from scrimmage, where there is the automatic first down. I guess the defence has the advantage on all penalties that are automatic 1st downs from scrimmage on the 2 pt conversion. Seems a little skewed to me, not to mention the time out right before the ball is snapped on the last second FG attempt. Didn't Buffalo have 2 time outs left? Why didn't they do it 2 more times? Is that illegal?

First, I didn't really like that call. Fades are a low percentage play in my mind, not something you want to run in that situation. Also, they are thrown immediately and don't let things develop. Secondly, it was blatant pass interference. The corner back face guarded TO, which is illegal. He also made contact before the ball got there. He was clearly not playing the ball because he couldn't see it.

 

[BlackJackMurphy]

I thought we got a raw deal all nite from the zebras

What happended to the "face guarding" call on that play? Haven't we had that called against us like 10 times in the past couple of years?

 

[speedkilz88]

From last year in discussions it was said that face guarding is legal now, but on that play the db actually was grabbing TO arms to make sure he couldn't catch it.

 

[kevwun]

I'll add some other beefs. I thought the TO catch that ruled incomplete could have been considered a catch because of a force out. TO's second foot came down 4 or 5 inches out of bounds. I think he would have brought it down without the contact. The spiking call was also BS. He's never going to get the benefit of the doubt on stuff like this and it's his own doing. It still isn't right.
