What makes this so "odd" is that the WORLD was not given the ability to actually SEE what was called? No replay? I'm not a conspiracy theory person but this was wierd to say the least. It's as if the refs were in agreement that Dallas could not simply salt away the game in a similar manner that Miami beat us last week.
Yes, very odd. Like it was scripted with very poor actors.

Follow the money. My guess is some very important people put a lot of money on the Lions with the points. And many suckers put a lot of money on the Cowboys to cover the spread. The Lions covered with the points. The outcome of the game is meaningless to them. The Lions had to cover. Think hundreds of millions to maybe a billion or so profit.

The NFL is not a sport. The government identifies the NFL as entertainment which makes it legal to fix the games.

Anyone claiming games aren’t fix, try to explain away the phantom tripping call. Note that penalties are not reviewable. Just the way the powers that be want it to be.

Oh, yeah, and Art Rooney didn’t win the Steelers franchise in a poker game like the story goes. Gamblers run the NFL. 26 or so of the NFL owners have ties to gambling. Including NYG owner Mara.

If you watch the replay, it seems that the Lions player was the one who attempted to trip someone. If that's called correctly or if there's no flag, chances are, the game ends either right there or shortly there after. Thus negating the other controversial call.

That lady has no business reffing a game. Not her fault but that hair makes her easy to stand out and she makes a ton of calls like this where she just doesn’t see the field well at all. She’s poor with spots, holds, false starts. She is worse than Brad Allen

All by design. She was just following orders. The Lions cover the spread. All it takes is a hold or a trip here and there and bingo. Money talks.

So basically she fits right in with the rest of the officials across the league, right?

The woman NFL official incorrectly called this trip on Hendershot, who all y’all want hung from the gigantic scoreboard at AT&T stadium. When it should’ve been called on Detroit for trying to trip Pollard. Completely blown call AGAINST Dallas and caused all the ensuing drama
Normally the women officials are assigned the duty of over aggressively running a ball in from the sidelines and spotting it with confidence and authority…what are they doing making calls?

I don’t know.

It’s possible the refs just called the wrong jersey #. I think it’s odd that Hutchinson and Barnes immediately popped up right a way and were pointing in the direction of either Bass or CeeDee. It’s hard to tell from the angle and the traffic.

But, yeah, Hutchinson could have been flagged there.

Hendershot gonna Hendershot.
Apparently there's proof that that was a bad call that he didn't trip anyone at least not purposely somebody said there's a lot of screenshots showing that that was a bad call..

And apparently there were bad calls all year against the Cowboys or calls that were not made that cost us some games so I don't wanna hear the crying anymore this is our game it is what it is...its a win..

You know I thought this place says all that you need to do is win by one point that you don't need moral victories you just need wins so we won the damn game fair and square it's not a controversy..

See that's what's gonna happen here we can go through every game this year and we could find out why the Cowboys could have already been a 12 win team with controversies in Philadelphia and in Arizona and even in the Miami game there were calls missed and all the other stuff that's happening with Michael Parsons him not getting flags for holding it's clearly affecting our defense...

*** there were two flags on the play the Cowboys would have accepted either one of them the play still never happens the two points was called back by two penalties... So if you wanna take out the fact that maybe the refs didn't hear 68 didn't get that right they still had an illegal formation call on the same play that would have been accepted the play still doesn't happen..
Be sure why everyone's arguing debating this all day that you remember there were two flags thrown on that same play it would have been called back anyway you can't have two players report as eligible and then line up one of them as if he's still just playing tackle I'm not a referee I don't know the rules but that did happen and it's being selectively left out of all the conversations**** #68 poor Detroit Lions they got screwed no there were two penalties on the play...
The best thing that was said after the game is the lions fooled themselves they confuse the referees they did not report properly because #70 lined up in his regular position and it wasn't illegal formation that's the end of this mess there were a lot of other calls and a lot of games this year where the Cowboys did not get the benefit.

I mean go back to the Arizona cardinal game when Michael gallop was clearly interfered with the referees agree dropped the flag decided to pick up the flag imagine if that would have been first in goal at the one we probably score on that drive then that interception doesn't happen afterwards we probably win that Arizona game ... Let's go to the Philadelphia game in Philadelphia we don't get the pass interference call the guys getting mugged screen makers on the 1 inch line we get that call we probably win that game.. How about the Buffalo game how that started with three penalties all 15 yarders two of them were very Gray areas and all the holes in the Miami game against Parsons who didn't get one flag hasn't had a flag dropped on him in like 2 months and he's being held a lot so much so it's becoming a big story... And then you have that Micah Parsons roughing the passer onto A and everyone can keep watching that it didn't happen and all the holes on him that game and how about CD lamb's pants being pulled off in the end zone that was not called also in the Miami game...

Those are just the ones off the top of my head and people can remember some that could have cost us some games so right now you are who you are where 11 and five have a chance to have our third twelve and five season in a row and people are still crying about time management in all this other nonsense but really you can't have CD Lamb fumble that ball out of the back of the end zone and the interception we can blame Prescott all we want he threw CD Lam a 5050 ball they do it all the time in the NFL he went up for the ball as if he didn't even feel the corner right there because if he did all he had to do is knock the ball down or just grab the receiver and pull him out of bounds he would have never been able to complete that catch I mean knocked the damn ball down so it's great to see the lamb was you didn't add that to your list Mr. original poster city lamb may have had 13 catches for 227 yards but he was also part of two very negative plays...


so in the end we won the damn game and that's all that matters there is no controversy there were two flags Dan Campbell should have kicked the extra point we should have went in the overtime that's it

That's because they never showed the replay during the game. Aikman would've definitely went nuts if that replay was showed.
Of course they didn't they want this to be a controversy where the Cowboys don't deserve the win instead of let's go back to all the games this year the Cowboys got screwed so yeah it's about time we're on the other end of a controversial call that's ends in a win but really it's now controversy anyway...

However maybe this is a good thing that this is so controversial that the league has to really go back and check these calls and maybe they finally do something with the referees who have been terrible this year for every team not just us but anybody who keeps blabbering about that last play and the two points have to remember there were two flags thrown on that play I don't wanna hear about how the Detroit Lions that's screwed their coach should have kicked the extra point after he had the third chance to take this game into overtime he was scared to take the game into overtime in my opinion because he knows the Cowboys were moving the ball pretty easily against his defense...

*** there were two flags on the play the Cowboys would have accepted either one of them the play still never happens the two points was called back by two penalties... So if you wanna take out the fact that maybe the refs didn't hear 68 didn't get that right they still had an illegal formation call on the same play that would have been accepted the play still doesn't happen..

As bad as the refs call was.......just as bad for the over quick wails for Hendershot to be cut on here without waiting for facts to emerge

It’s almost weekly...
IKR... if I didn't know any better, I would have thought this team was fighting for the first pick in the draft.
