Today in Dallas Cowboys History - Dez Caught It!

[Whirlwin]

Three freaking steps before he hit the ground. Smh.

Still, I dont believe our defense holds for a second.

I see one step after he controlled the football

I will take to my grave, that if Murray doesn’t fumble, he scores and we roll big that game

Well you don't have to take it to your grave two missed field goals the fumble and the controversial No Catch all led to that loss it wasn't just one thing Again we were snake bit in the playoffs where no matter what we weren't winning that game any one of those three moments maybe you get one back, it could have helped..3


It's like that in a lot of these games think about it one of those 49er games you had Trayvon Diggs not hit Kittles Why he's bobbling a really big significant catch also he dropped an interception it should have been a sheer interception that's just on defense they couldn't stop Debo in the first half 10 yards per carry in one of those games also one of those games there are 11 penalties just on the offensive line and three on the defensive line that's 14 penalties in one game we could go back to some of these plays and go man if we could have just had that back..


Think about it this Seattle game everyone remembers the Romo fumble but I remember the play before that I still believe that's a first down jason Witten turned purplish red about to have his head explode because he felt like he got the 1st down,

they thought it was a bad spot, they didn't give it to us, and then the bobble field goals hold happened,

Hell if somebody would have blocked better on that Romo may have got to the end zone I mean this happens in every game that we played at significant something Weird happens but it's not one thing it seems to be three..

Zack Martin had blocked Julius Peppers COMPLETELY out of the hole. Peppers was forced to DIVE BACK INTO THE HOLE trying to strip the ball from Demarco Murray.

All Murray had to do was what all running backs are taught to do: protect the ball going through the line. The fumble was a perfect example of how to not carry the ball in traffic.

Murray thought it was clear sailing through a giant hole. No one should ever assume that nonsense.

We were robbed.

We were robbed.

 

[gtb1943]

Like or not, Per the rules of the day it was incomplete pass all day long as the NFL rules guru explained it during the broadcast...

and it was the perfect example of rules designed by committees
idiotic and illogical
they should NEVER have changed the catch rule in the first place.

 

[CWR]

I see one step after he controlled the football

Ball in his hand and he took 3 strides.

 

[Whirlwin]

Ball in his hand and he took 3 strides.

The ball was not secure when he finally secured it. He took one step the ball moved during those three steps you’re talking about.

he switched the ball into his hand to reach out. He didnt 'lose' control until he reached out and it hit the ground. Those who think it wasn't a catch say it was under the "going to the ground rules". Except 3 steps and 5 yards, switching the ball and reaching out makes you a runner... otherwise you could literally stumble for 99 yards, fall and it wouldn't be a catch.

There's really no excuse to believe it wasn't a catch other than purposeful ignorance.

At the high point when he first caught it, he let go for a moment to resecure it. Way before what you’re talking about.

I guess the entire NFL, was wrong and I’ve been a cowboy fan I believe before you were probably born

Time to move on.

Looked secure in both hands to me.

Idc what anyone says. If you have to dilute the rules to the extent its a debate then you have a problem. When I see a player catch a ball, take 3 strides and go to the ground WITHOUT the ball ever touching the ground im calling it a catch. As it should be.

Im not of the opinion we go on the win anyway. Our defense would've folded like a lawn chair immediately.

I thought it moved, but my eyes aren’t as good as they used to be

I think it does move on the way down. Again though, not the rule of law, just good sense and how we all grew up playing ball. If that ball doesn't touch the ground its a catch in my eyes. Which is clearly just my personal opinion.

Its not the worst loss during our "run" of disappointment. The Giants loss was devastating. We should've won that one. Smh

I was so sick, after that game I wanted Tony to get a ring so bad

January 11, 2015. Dez caught it! Lots of debate about if the Cowboys would have won and we will never know. But one thing we do know. Dez caught it. Hard to believe it's been 11 years already.

The bias against the Cowboys is so ridiculous. He made a foot ball move got control of the ball and the ground cannot cause a fumble. That was a catch.

It was before I pulled myself together and learned to behave. I remember being out in the garage and punching my work bench hard enough to break the watch off my wrist. Good times lol.

Ive got over a decade of good behavior and my wife still hates the Cowboys. It really took watching the games with my daughter to get me right I suppose.

Seeing him crying with his family after gb was tough.

I was just out of the military, Smith dropped the ball in the end zone. Against Pittsburgh I broke a sears console 26 inch TV. That was a nice TV back then. Stupid things we do when we’re young.
