Tom Coughlin annoyed over non-call on Romo-Hurd TD

[ABQCOWBOY]

Rumor is that Coach Gibbs phoned Tom and told him to send a video to the league office.:laugh2:

Probably sent him media to lay it down with too.

Of course, knowing Gibby, it was probably a VCR tape.

:laugh2:

Is that how they call penalties in the NFL now?...It doesn't impact the result of the play so don't bother calling it?...That is perhaps how it should be called but that's not how the game is called...It's the letter of the law/rules.

For example, the whole extra man on the field call...A guy running out of bounds before the ball is snapped...He isn't in the play and isn't impacting the outcome of the play but if his foot is still in bounds when that ball is snapped, that flag gets thrown.

It's just the way it is, a penalty is a penalty whether or not it would've changed the outcome.

I won't argue that it's a silly thing to call but it is what it is.

Maybe you and Tom "the feur" Coughlin could sit down and review the game, going through all the other "none calls" for the giants. Then you could co-write a letter to the commish. I think that would be fair. -- And then maybe Tom " I hate the world" Coughlin would be happy.

You sound like a Giants fan.

LOL.... you picking that up too....

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

Oh please....


Wade is calling a presser right now about the multiple non-calls on WARE

I would have like the refs to call some holding that the Giants were getting away with as well but that did not happen. So complain all you want Tom

Uh....... Bump

 

[ScipioCowboy]

That kind of logic got this country into more trouble than any of us bargained for...Open mindedness is liberating, try it

Actually, it was an inability to interpret warning signs that initially wetted the mud in which our country is now steeped. Let's not be open minded to the point our brains fall out. We should be fair and judicious while simultaneously willing to call a spade for what it is.

Or maybe it's Tom " why do I always look like I just crapped my pants" Coughlin, himself. :laugh2:

In that case.

Dodged several bullets? Like what?

And as far as the rest of your garbage, it ain't cheatin' unless you get caught. It's not the Cowboys fault the ref didn't throw the flag, and no amount of pissing and moaning by Coughlin is going to make a magical fairy named Mike Perreira float down from the heavens and give him a 'do-over'.

Point being, he should be a man, suck it up, and play better next time, so he won't have to cry about a flag that didn't get thrown.

I can think of several bullets...Losing Eli and having to go with an untested QB was one dodged bullet had the gap not been 10 and just 3 with plenty of time in the 4th...The D was stopping no one....Reeves' INT when the WR slipped, a little bit of luck helped us there for another one and it ended up resulting in a TD...Throw in the missed penalty, that's three key plays right there that add up to a lot of points.

And 'it ain't cheatin unless u get caught'?...Are you 10?

And the point of the thread has been about whether or not the penalty would've amounted to anything, and it would've...Imagine the scenario exactly the same but switch the teams around and it was NY that benefitted...It'd be a recurring complaint from coaches and fans alike...Penalty is a penalty...Gloating that it didn't get called doesn't change that.

We dodged one there and I'm thankful we did but it wasn't something insignificant...It could've changed the game

Mat McBriar puts on inside the ten, maybe five. Then three and out with Lardy McFatarse at QB?

Good Lardy Mrs. Clardy

Right, because a fan calling a spade for what it is makes him a fan of the opposition...Sounds like precisely the faulty logic I mentioned earlier, if you're not with us you're against us...Winning logic

[dbair1967]

hey Tom, I wonder how many successful Giants offensive plays should have been negated by holding calls that were somehow missed

I mean come on, if football were like basketball, Kareem McKenzie and that guy playing LT would have fouled out before halftime

This is what you said, initially.

I know what I said.

My response was about whether the impact has any bearing on whether a penalty should be called or not...It doesn't, a penalty is a penalty...This kind of no impact penalty happens in just about every game.

And we're not discussing whether it should have been called. A monkey can see that it should have been called. Every penalty should be called.

What we're discussing is whether anyone should give a damn that it wasn't called. It was pure technicality that had no impact on the play.

And it being 'unlikely that it would have impacted the result of the entire game had it actually been called' is Cowboy bias, let's face it....It was 3rd down at a crucial juncture in the game as the gap was only a FG...Failure to convert in a 3rd and long and the ball goes back to NYG with plenty of time to tie or go ahead rather than being down 10 pts as the resulting no call turned out...So, intimating it is unlikely is a stretch...The sequence of events that could've followed would've completely changed...It was a pivotal noncall.

Cowboys bias? That's laughable. How about Tony Romo having completed 6 of his 8 passes on 3rd down (excluding the play in question which puts it at 7 of 9). How about the Cowboys having scored on 6 of 8 of their drives up to that point? How about Lorenzen going 3 and out on his only drive?

What on earth makes you think that (1) the Giants would have been able to move the ball 80+ yards for a touchdown, and (2) the Cowboys wouldn't have scored when they received the ball back.

Cowboys bias. Please, keep your mouth shut if you're going to say stupid **** like that.

A new York style bbgun?

I'm giddy with the possibilities.

Not really. Calling yourself "objective" and "unbiased" when your post isn't.

All I see is excuses given for the Giants play and how we dodged a bullet. You mention how many injuries the Giants had, but what about all the injuries to the 'Boys?

You're talking about suppositions where Giants could have come back if the penalty was called.

What about suppositions where it didn't matter for the Cowboys if the penalty was still called. What if the 'Boys still called the same play and converted on 3rd and 12 instead of 3rd and 7?

Like I said. You sound like a Giants fan because you're giving every possible excuse for them while not allowing the same type of logic to be applied to the 'Boys.

Actually, I never once addressed the previous poster's assertions about your team affiliation. I was addressing your comment about our country's current problems and, in the process, extoling the virtue of being fair and judicious.

How anyone's comments here can be interpretted as "you're either with me or against me" is utterly baffling.

Frankly, it's ironic that you would castigate others for a lack of openmindedness when you're being extremely reactionary.

"...and after that non-call on Crayton, I crapped my pants. This look on my face is because I am required to sit here and talk to the media and I haven't been in the lockerroom yet to change."

We started the game with 3 major injuries and then added another during

1. Terry Glenn
2. Greg Ellis
3. Terrence Newman
4. Jason Ferguson

Their injuries didnt happen until after the game was started

1. Jacobs
2. Umenyiora
3. Manning
