If you don't mind, if be curious what they were. I was watching the game but not that close so I wouldn't mind being reminded/educated. I did see the punter being hit, but it looked like running into at most so would've only been 5 (I do think they should've called it even with being slightly blocked into)

If you don't have time no worries
It would have been 5 leading to 4th and long anyway...  would have been meaningless.
 
Literally the only people with this Detroit still could have won crap are Cowboy fans.

It's kinda funny.

Every single one of those calls the Lions got were debatable at best and Golden Tate's first was obvious. There were gonna review it no matter what.

The holds on the offensive line and even if you don't call PI the blatant tug of the jersey and Dez running on to the field in the 4th aren't debatable.

If Barry Church of all people can admit it I don't see why yall can't.

The running into the punter call for Detroit when there was hardly any contact at all, Dallas punter was actually hit in the 3rd quarter and there was no call. Terrence Williams was called for offensive pass interference, taking away a 3rd down conversion, only Dallas scored on the next play to Terrence Williams on a 3rd and 15 because Detroit didn't even try to tackle him. The holding on Jason Witten reversed a TD. These were key calls on 3rd downs that took away first downs or TDs that went against Dallas.

Contact or not you have to give the kicker room to land. Which didn't happen.

Terrence Williams ran a pick play and got called for it.
 
 
since there are a number of people arguing the point about 1 singular call deciding the result of a game, what are your opinions of this:
Literally, in the history of sports, this is the only game I have found where a team (Green Bay) can blame the refs...

No turnovers by Green Bay...two plays I'd point to are the long TD to Golden Tate in the 2nd quarter and missing a two-point conversion that would've made the Fail Mary a 14-14 tie...

Ok so what about the running into the punter on Det in the 3rd? Don't you have to give the kicker room to land? And I'm pretty sure you saw TWill pushed into your CB, I wouldn't call that a pick.
 
Damn, I heard a couple retired players on air today livid about that PI call. Questioning the NFL and it's integrity.
 
Stragiht headlock status.

But but but that can get called all the time. Well when a running back is "held" while is between the tackles that usually never gets called either.

Caldwell is aight. He's a leader of men which is what they needed but he's not a good tactician.


I got you. Referencing the Levy penalty on Dunbar.

Y'all talking about the play where levy blitzed, realized the rb wasn't blocking and indeed was about to get a scene, so levy TACKLED him to not let Dunbar pass him? Lol.

There's a reason romo threw him the ball while he was on the ground. lol. I'm just saying.



Everyone talks so much smack about cowboys fans being biased. But every person in here is looking thru bias eyes. Y'all on the anti cowboys bias, it's obvious.

******* Barry Church said he would have called the PI.

I'm started to think yall are just trolling.

Can't be serious

The outrage is silly though. If the play is called correctly, it would be offsetting fouls for offensive(hands to the face mask) and maybe defensive pass interference.

Well here's what your coach said .. "I'm not going to sit up here and act like that was the play that made a difference in the game. We still had our chances." - Jim Caldwell
 
You guys are arguing in circles. It's a TERRIBLE call but one call doesn't decide games.

I pray we have 4 different threads for next weeks games so I can stay out of the Cowboys one.

Isn't the rule you can't go under the facemask? I thought the partial contact didn't matter. Either way, it's not offsetting if there's holding and then a PI. Wouldn't that be two fouls to one?

Everybody forgets the terrible PI called on Kam on the drive GB scores on :lol:
atleast the ref was equal opportunity ****** during the fail Mary game
 
Marvin Lewis is doing a fine coachingjob for the Bengals considering the circumstances

giphy.gif



12 years and not 1 damn playoff win
 
I don't see how Marvin keeps his job but then again I don't see how Dalton keeps his job and he will
 
Marvin will get extended next year, book it!

And hopefully more good coordinators leave because they aren't promoted :lol:
