Once they made that decision, it was too late to back out. Except they didn't need to make loving graphics saying it was Ice Bowl II, that was just ridiculous. Maybe there's some kind of 'All Dallas/Green Bay games played at Lambeau are Ice Bowls' thing going on here. idk it is dumb.

You know, i wonder how the officials would call it if Dez 'fell down slow'. Dez took like 3 really quick steps falling down, but what if he took like 5, 6, 7 steps and fell down at the end and lost control? Would the rulebook still say he didn't make the catch?

Probably because he didn't make a football move. If he tucked he ball in, stumbled 6 steps forward and then reached it forward they probably wouldn't have overturned it.

You know, I made fun of Dallas posters in the GDT for crying about it, but I know where they're coming from. It was a dumb rule when they applied it to Calvin Johnson, and it is a dumb rule now. Dez had control of the ball when it touched the ground and as it touched the ground. He lost control as he pulled it up after coming from the ground. Then he regained control while in the end zone. If anything, it should have been a touchdown because you are allowed to make a catch while trapping it to the ground as long as you have demonstrated control of the ball prior to trapping it. And then by the time he actually has the catch, he is in the end zone. But it is not the refs fault. They applied the rule as it is written. Blame the NFL for the rules. And I don't feel bad for the Cowboys or Cowboys fans one bit because they shouldn't have even been playing in Lambeau.... They were gifted the game against Detroit far worse than the Packers were gifted this game. Hell, the Packers would have still had a really good chance to win had the Cowboys scored a TD.

You're going to sit there and say "oh the Packers still would have won anyways if the Cowboys had scored" but then in the same post say that the Cowboys couldn't have won without the call in the Lions game? Seriously, gently caress you. There was more time left in the Lions game than there was in the Packers game and the Lions could have chosen to go for it on 4th down.

That's fair, but I'm not talking about just the flag that was picked up in the Lions game. The NFL also admitted there was a missed flag for holding on Suh on Dallas' 4th and 6 conversion which should have made it 4th and 16. While that isn't impossible to convert, and they could have kicked the field goal, the combination of those two fuckups leads me to believe that the Cowboys should not have won that game.

There are like a billon missed holds in every NFL game. They also admitted to missing a bunch of calls that would have been favorable to Dallas.

This week and last have been the subjects of calls that severely alter the game. A playoff game. The offciating has been pretty wonky through the playoffs, it's unacceptable. There was one point during denver/colts that the referee made so many mistakes on the ruling I was confused as to what down, who was charged and what was happening. These are suppose to be the "better" of the regular season officiating teams.

Honestly getting the two feet down with a secure ball should be the only football move that's needed to count as a catch. This is pretty balanced as it means more potential fumbles for the defense while helping out recievers

I think the Broncos/Colts refs were probably the best this weekend. He kinda stumbled over his words once, but I think it was pretty well officiated even if they let some holding on both sides go a little.

The NFL seems to be so stubborn with this rule that it is likely every team gets hosed by it before it ever changes.

You're going to have a Ross type meltdown at this rate. Let's take a deep breath and remember it's just a game in which nobody on this forum has any direct involvement in. After all, at least we're not watching soccer.

Need to get Colts and Seahawks to play games every year so Luck and Wilson can become the new Manning/Brady. Instead of the grudge match being the AFC playoffs, they cant meet in the Super Bowl every year.

However, if I'm remembering correctly, most of them were targeting Benjamin. There's no reason Sherman shouldn't have been shadowing Benjamin the whole game, just like he did the last time they played each other with Maxwell out. Maxie isn't great, but the guys right behind him aren't quite ready to take his spot.

This is pretty balanced as it means more potential fumbles for the defense while helping out recievers Yeah there needs to be some clear point where it's a catch. I remember being livid at the incomplete call and lost challenge against the Packers below. I mean if he took a 3rd step before being tackled/stripped would that be enough? If he had a third step that hit out of bounds while still upright, would that be enough?  I can't even recall the reason the rule went into place, I though it was to simplify calls on sideline or backline catches in the endzone (toe taps/drags). I think in that context it makes it sense.

Now that I think about it even though the Colts have a lovely line Luck is elusive as gently caress and near Rogers-level of accurate while running full speed away from an angry DB who just shed 3 lovely linemen holding him. Feeling bad for Manning pretty much wiped my Colts bitterness, I'm gonna have to deal with a bunch more heartbreaking losses to them to start hating them again. It'll be even harder as time goes on because their roster will just keep filling up with cool ex-Ravens. In regards to lovely catch rule it really is hard to think of why it's there. The only thing I can think of is they don't want to make it easier to award a catch in the end zone when it would be incomplete if at midfield or whatever. However if you wanna get a rule changed pissing off Jerry is a good place to start. If the Cowboys got hosed over week 1 during the ref lockout the dude probably would've dropped his bullshit saying they weren't that bad. He's an rear end in a top hat but he wants to win. So basically we just gotta wait for it to happen to the Pats or something while Brady is still there. Sour Diesel fucked around with this message at 06:13 on Jan 12, 2015 |

I don't think they should change the rule. It would make it way too hard on defenses, which rely on attacking the ball to cause it to come loose. I just think they should be a bit more liberal with the definition of "a move common to the game", or at least more precise in the definition.

Instead of a incomplete, Defenses would instead have the opportunity for a fumble/recovery. The only place it really helps the offense is the endzone(or in cases like Dez)
