Wildcard Round (Other Teams)

[Pats]

Cowboys fans are going to be insufferable.

They have no reason to have any confidence after this performance and all the flags they have gotten against one of the few nfc teams that are worse in the playoffs and history than dallas.

[redrum52]

I have no reason to trust any officials the rest of this post season

[arnie_uk]

Mike CArey on twotter saying it should have been holding rather than PI now. Didn't see a hold, just a push

[jimmypowder]

Wow..... Dallas gets away with holding again on that TD pass. Refs are making it so obvious they are helping Dallas.

I'm waiting for the next drive when Lions score the winning TD and the refs throw a flag or rule it incomplete because the receiver didn't catch it properly.

Yeah there seems a lot of bias for Dallas in this game . It's pathetic really and I hate both teams

[Gordo52]

Soooo glad we didn't get this crew

[jimjim5]

That's like a majority of Torrey smiths impact on this team. Under thrown deep balls that he can't come back to, that becomes a PI.

 

But Torrey beats his man. That receiver had not beaten his man.

[dhstandard]

that's not what he said. He mentioned any contact and not facing the ball. He pushed him and didn't turn.

That's not the point anyway. Right or wrong call, you can't reverse it after announcing it

 

There is no rule that states a defender must turn around.

 

Under things that do not constitute pass interference:

 

"Laying a hand on a receiver that does not restrict the receiver in an attempt to make a play on the ball." 

 

The rule you are referring to is that : "Defensive players have as much right to the path of the ball as eligible offensive players." 

 

Which means that if the defender is trying to catch the ball (turning around as you stated) that contact between the two players is mutual as both are fighting for the ball.

24-20 boys, this game seems fixed but oh well don't care for either team.

It does make you wonder because Dallas draws the money. I have nothing against Detroit except I really do not like Suh.

I agree fully, but that won't stop them. Ah well, if we both lose next week we should get the better draft pick.

Yeah, and it'd be nice(ish) to see them finally win a playoff game.

Just wait till Saturday...

He held him early before interferance. There's no way he shouldn't have been flagged. Hold on... he was flagged...

[cobrajet]

That scares me now for this coming Saturday, because they love to throw the hankies for the Patriots.

[jdynamite]

Stafford will throw a pick.

[arnie_uk]

it was Def a flag. Interference all day either way. Even if it was the wrong call you can't reverse it that late.

[A Fish Called Yanda]

First down Lions!

[Pats]

I agree fully, but that won't stop them. Ah well, if we both lose next week we should get the better draft pick.

They are one of those fanbases that can't stop living in the past, so when they lose and they will lose soon, it will be great. And off how do you drop a fumble like that?

[jimjim5]

Stafford and his coaching staff have no clue how to mount a comeback. Jeez I hope I am wrong.

 

I live in Dallas and have to deal with these idiot, uninformed fans. The are cocky for no reason. My co-workers even try to diminish the Ravens accomplishments.

[jdynamite]

What a stupid set of events.

[LiveFreeorDieARaven]

LOL at Lawarence

[Inqui]

That should do it. So the Cowboys are the less useless team.

[redlobster]

Lolz cowboys just won the game and then gave it away

[Pats]

Dallas defiantly draws the money, and dallas-green bay is huge

you tell mike Carey that then

[A Fish Called Yanda]

Its the Lions ball?

[Mt. Crushmore]

Wow. Crazy play. Just fall on the ball.

[Inqui]

Sounds like Steelers fans.

[jimjim5]

I do agree with this statement. Refs looking out for the Cowboys in Jerry World.

[Inqui]

Its the Lions ball?

Is it? I thought it was a turnover for some reason.

NFL just wants to promote the "Ice Bowl Rematch", only reason to help Dallas and throw questionable flags on Detroit.
