Why did we not challenge the Durant INT?

[Aven8]

Anybody have video on it? Seemed pretty close to me. Doesn't matter now, but just curious.

Because JG is a goof lol

Because Dallas has people upstairs looking at the replay and did not think he made the catch. Looking at replay there is not much to overturn the call and TO are too important.

It wasn't an interception. He was bobbling it as he rolled out of bounds, and the time out was too valuable at that point.

I thought it was at least worth a challenge. With 3 timeouts in a close game and a possible change of possession, it's worth a shot.

OK...I didn't see the bobble.

One of those things where there may not have been enough evidence to overturn a call no matter what it was on the field.

Would be nice to get the benefit of the doubt on one of those, though!

as I said Cowboys have people upstairs who see the replay and will call down to the coach.

Someone in the booth told him not to challenge. It was the right call not to as well. That would not have been reversed no matter what was called on the field. If it was ruled an interception, it would have stayed that way and vice verse. Just not enough evidence to overturn, IMO. Also, the other team was still in 3rd and long and the D was playing well, you figure we get off the field on the next play anyway and you save the time out.

I never saw that either.

Durant didn't look too bothered that they ruled it incomplete. Probably a big reason why.

Because it wouldn't have been overturned. I don't believe the ball hit the ground, but I'm not sure he had complete control of it before he landed out of bounds. I don't think the evidence would have warranted it being overturned, and Dallas smartly decided not to waste a timeout on it.

Plus, Durant didn't seem to object. He knew he didn't make the play.

Sure they do.

But why miss a change to criticize Garrett. At 5-1, the haters really need something.

 

[loublue22]

he looked out of bounds to me, but they never showed a good replay

 

[cowboyschmps3]

I was screaming at TV like crazy, thinking about it he probably didn't want too risk the timeouts but that would of taken off the 3 points they scored.

 

[big dog cowboy]

I was screaming for a red flag but when Fox showed the replay from the wrong angle and it was the only angle they had I knew Red wouldn't challenge because he would lose.

 

[ufcrules1]

They tried to say the ball hit the ground but I never saw it hit the ground. I thought it was a legit interception.

 

[Doomsday101]

Appears to be the case but TO are important, frankly one shot of Williams catch and I question Carroll challenge, it is clear as day 1 look at it and you know both feet are in. All he did was cost his team a time out. It was never in doubt.

everyone crying about that play has no business commenting from here on out. if you think that decision was wrong, just let me know so I can put you on the football ignorance ignore list.
