Because there was a 250 lb linebacker running into the receiver while not looking back at the ball, but still, the ball was uncatchable... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenJennings Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) The refs in this game were biased in favor of DETROIT. Not Dallas. Dallas won in SPITE of the NFL's best attempts to slant the playing field. The PI flag was picked up with good reason... Pettigrew was making as much contact with Hitchens as vice versa... you want to know why Hitchens didn't make a play on the ball? It was because Pettigrew was pulling his helmet away from it. His hands were up as he was being pulled by Pettigrew for that reason exactly. If they'd thrown the flag for Offensive PI, I think it might have been warranted.

I watched the game on mute, and I didn't think the call was that bad. I thought it could have gone either way. What did the NFL Ref specialist say about it?

Syrinx Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 That was a less questionable call then the roughing the kicker on the Cowboys. Especially when the exact same thing happened to the Cowboys kicker and there was no call. In every game both teams can usually find calls that were questionable. Bottom line is Detroit had the game in hand and let it slip away. They had a chance at the end and fumbled the ball away....TWICE! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a chance at the end and fumbled the ball away....TWICE!First of all, it was running into the punter called on Dallas, there were less than five yards to go which is why it was a first down. And the play where the Lion touched the Cowboys punter...he tried to hold him up. That one wasn't even close. The call against Hutchings where they picked up the flag is called DPI 9,999,999 Times out of 10 million. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you hate the Cowboys, you are going to whine about that one call and make the victory seem like luck. We were lucky to win that game but not solely because of that call. We came out extremely flat and got better as the game went on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Thats defensive pass interference, and a penalty/personal foul by Bryant coming on the field without a helmet. Not even close. Your looking at that like a typical Dallas fan. After the dream ends next week it wont matter anyway, the chief choke artist will be back in full force. I love how everyone is coronating Dallas after that weak win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember laughing when the Dallas crowd was bitching about it but maybe a second look would be helpful, and I'm about as paranoid a fan as there is. I seriously doubt it though. But if you can find it, I'll be glad to take a look at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm obviously not a Belichick fan, but he seems to be the only coach that REALLY understands win probabilities and what moves the needle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought a defensive holding call was clearly missed, and an offensive face masking penalty was very probably missed, and that a defensive pass interference call was slightly more likely than not to have occurred. Also, Bryant obviously broke the rules, but I think the refs were so confused by themselves at that point that they weren't thinking about it. Really, the overturning of the defensive pass interference call wasn't even close to the worst non-call on that play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I agree (Stone cold interference.), but they shouldnt have picked up the flag and they should have penalized the NFLs most obnoxious big mouth. They arent supposed to get confused. But its fun watching Dallas' fans justify it. Lots of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
