That's right. This is nothing like SF. The Cowboys played with a lot of heart and took it to them.
I said the same thing at the deadline. Ferguson has made some good plays but has way too many drops. Dak misses Shultz badly. Im hoping Tolbert can step up and be that guy
I really like Dowdle. Would almost like to see TP twist an ankle for a week so that kid could get 20 carries. Bet he would go for 100
Well I did kind of fib. The refs IMo did everything in their power to help the Eagles. Really by now I am used to that type of officiating. The call on Gilmore was terrible. The flags that were picked on the Eagles were legit penalties. Dak took the shot to the head late and no flags. There were others.
There is no question the officiating cost Dallas the game. How the Hell can you call that devastating holding call on Schoonmaker when his hands are inside the chestplate, but not call holding when Micah was tackled right in front of the ref on a big play for the Eagles? How can you call that total bullcrap PI on Gilmore and not call it when Lamb has a guy with both hands on his arm pulling it with the ball in the air? How can you THROW THE DAMN FLAG on an obvious hands to the face at the end and pick it up when the Eagles are getting a sack to basically end the game. Just brutally one sided
He has not played well at all this year. Has to be the injury IMO. Steele was so good last year before he went down with the injury. Wonder if it will take all year to get back to where he was. Hopefully he doesn’t play like this for his entire contract.
I haven’t seen any SM and like I said I watched the game on a small iPad screen and I didn’t think the officiating was great and a couple of big ones obviously went against us, but it didn’t seem that one sided to me. We are our own worst enemy with penalties and I can’t blame the refs. the PI on Bradford was the biggest call of the game and while totally legit and obvious it came at a time of the game where the refs sometimes eat their flags and he called it. My problem with the Gilmore call was it was uncatchable. The angle it came down at and where it landed would have made it impossible to catch in bounds. I also wonder if we got a little bit of a break on the Dak 4th down review. I can’t see how he got it until maybe at the very end and at that point I thought there was a whistle
Watch the all 22 on the play that Micah was held and see the Ref standing 5 feet away and see if you still feel that way
This team can beat anyone. I am convinced of that. I had a good feeling all week about this game unlike SF. We almost did it. Can't wait till we play them again. Dak has to win these games in the end no matter what. He had Ferguson wide open on seam on the 4th and 8 but threw it to Tolbert. He usually looks for Ferguson too in that situation.
Micah was definitely held and is held 20 times a game just like Watt and Bosa. You’ll never hear me say otherwise. I didn’t see a replay of the hands to the face but it looked to me like one of the other officials must have said it wasn’t to the face. There are missed calls all game long against every team. Our guys have more penalties and more dumb penalties but the refs aren’t out to get us. That’s what bothers me about complaining about refs. There is this underlying or in some cases overt string of comments acting as if the refs are purposely making calls against us or want us to lose. There have even been comments on here the last few years about how the NFL is telling them to make said call which is just ridiculous.
I keep reading people say that but I haven’t seen the replay. One completion there and I think we more than 50/50 win the game. Ferguson still had a couple plays I thought he could have made but he is really clicking with Dak now. Could be a nice weapon for us down the stretch and if teams start looking for him with the safeties in the middle of the field stepping up to him it could open up Cooks deep As well as the wings
Gallup drop was 7 points. We ended with a fg.
Parsons would have way more sacks if he played for any other team..he is held over and over again. Game after game
I agree with what you said, holding is called on every play. Micah was tackled on that one. I guess what steams me is that we had just been calles for Schoonmaker that killed a drive that was no where near as egregious as that one
