Wild Card Weekend 2015: Detroit Lions @ Dallas Cowboys

[Midswat]

Mike Pierra, former head of officiating, thinks it was a horrendous flag pick up.

But dbair doesn't.


Hmmmmm

Gonna side with mike here. We got lucky as a motherfucker. I'll take it. But let's not act like it should've been picked up.

 

[GloryDaysRBack]

it was critical that we scored a TD instead of a game-tying FG, because Detroit had plenty of time to win the game with a FG of their own. in the back of my mind I was fearing a Tony pick in the end zone.

Precisely what was going through my head

Not going to argue the call...the rule is fucking stupid and I've been complaining about that shit for years

No doubt we got lucky they picked it up, but it shouldn't have been thrown.

Notice Mikey never said a word about Pettiegrew contacting Hitchens.

Also didn't here Mikey say anything about their DB knocking Dez over on that crossing route in the redzone right before Romo was getting ready to unload. Ended up taking a sack.

Spill man has been bringing it today

He has been a machine on ST all year. People scoffed at the pick up, did we trade a 6th or something.

 

[cockstrong]

When you watch the replays, it almost appears that's how Hitchens ended up contacting Pettigrew anyway. He appeared to be pulling him closer.

How the fuck did you get banned from The Own

 

[Doomsday]

How the fuck did you get banned from The Own

That's cold.

 

[cockstrong]

Hope Jnday was able to enjoy himself today with the win

 

[Bluenoser]

The ups and downs of this thread and game are fantastic! Garrett has built a hell of a team and seems to have them believing they can overcome anything!!! Need a Ric Flair whooooo

 

[bbgun]

I hate announcers sometimes.

And for the guy who is supposedly a referee czar or something, the BALL WAS NOT CATCHABLE. IT HIT THE DEFENDER IN THE BACK

take your homer glasses off. even with Hitchens interfering, he got a hand on the ball. very makeable catch if Hitch is not there.

 

[Bluenoser]

Rich Eison already hyping ice bowl 2!!

 

[Bluenoser]

Pettigrew had full extension push off as well

 

[VTA]

I don't know what to make of it. I thought it was a bullshit call, considering it bounced off the back of his head, but it's going to be the excuse from here on out.

 

[marionbarberthe4th]

Never touched him. learn psychics

Who cares what way he's looking

 

[GloryDaysRBack]

Yeah. Just bc Hitchens isn't looking for the ball doesn't mean it's a penalty...there has to be contact...and the contact was very minimal

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Speaking of non-flags. What about on the 2nd TD pass where the defender dove at Romo's legs with the ball already thrown? No flag there.

 

[marionbarberthe4th]

Yeah. Just bc Hitchens isn't looking for the ball doesn't mean it's a penalty...there has to be contact...and the contact was very minimal

Yep. He goes down bc he's looking for an angle to catch a poor throw. Awesome defense.

 

[bbgun]

Yeah. Just bc Hitchens isn't looking for the ball doesn't mean it's a penalty...there has to be contact...and the contact was very minimal

Hitch wasn't playing the ball and he made contact before the ball arrived. we dodged a bullet.
