Vicious head shot on Crayton

[Sarge]

Someone should have gone after Fletcher and got him back. The skins were never in that game and if ever there was a time to retaliate that was it.

I'm glad you're not in charge.

If you were his teammate, you would have let that one slide?

 

[YosemiteSam]

Nah Doug Free is our new inforcer :laugh2:

I enjoyed watching him pancake that Commander defensive linemen

 

[adbutcher]

Makes you wonder doesnt it. It was right in the middle of the field in plain sight. Several different officials could have probably called it, but none did.

Refs were there to make the call. I came to the realization a long time ago that we will have overcome the bias refs in order to be successful. If there is a call to be made against the Cowboys it will be made against the opposition not so much.

Do you pick up 15 yards and hurt the team? This team has played stupid before we are trying to overcome being a stupid team who does things to beat themselfs.

a smart player would.

15 yds and an ejection and possibly a suspension.

That's true. I really don't understand it because we don't have dirty players besides Flozell on occasion. If we don't play every play perfectly we're getting a flag. The refs look the other way every game when it comes to the other team.

True. I was PO'ed they missed the call I don't see where making things worse for the team by losing control and as you said looking at 15 yards a possible ejection and or suspension as well as the player getting fined makes up for the bad call.

Exactly. Retaliation on the field is pure stupidity. An eye for an eye does NOT work on the field and you are 100% correct - we are trying to AVOID stupid penalties, big lead or not. It's a no-brainer.

Tells me this team is learning, we have spent the last few season killing ourselfs over stupid things it is hard enough winning games without doing things to cost you games.

You are for or against the Star and I won't be surprised if the majority of the refs are against the Star.

Side note, Flo ain't dirty. He is just a player that has lost some footspeed and is over compensating. Flo has had way more dirty crap done to him then what he has given out. It is just the nature of playing in the trenches.

Personally it appears that most of Flo's critics are those who didn't like him in the beginning. Having said all of that, Flo is still a very good LT even with his declining skills. The day he hangs them up, will be a HUGE void that we will need to replace, else we won't have Romo very long.

I remember a game against Minn, I think, where one of their dl's nut shotted Flo.

Yep that is the one I was thinking about. Utter trashy play and I also recall how the commentators getting a good laugh out of it.

Probably Jared Allen.

I honestly think youre way more likely to get away w/ a late hit against the Cowboys.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Forget the fine, that alone isn't enough. Suspend Fletcher (without pay) for next weeks game.

 

[Yeagermeister]

Probably Jared Allen.

This was in the late 90's or early 2000's

I remember on Hard Knocks Allen suggested to a rookie to kick a guy in the satchel.

Hes awesome, but that is not cool

 

[Blast From The Past]

I don't know how the hell they missed that but a fine is forthcoming for sure.

I could swear an official was looking right at Crayton when he was hit and no way could have missed it.
