Don’t see any of you bringing up the awful ‘horse collar’ that put the browns in position for the go ahead score.

Or even worse, the TD they took away from Dez Bryant by blowing the play dead when not one defender on the Browns EVER at any point had their arms around him

This call could have gone either way live and in replay so both situations need to be reviewable.

In fact, the IG rule states

“Intentional grounding will be called when a passer, facing an imminent loss of yardage due to pressure from the defense, throws a forward pass without a realistic chance of completion. ”

Note that the passer must be facing “imminent loss of yardage due to pressure from the defense”. There wasn’t a defensive player within 5 yards of Romo, ergo, there was NO IG.

Not saying my Browns aren’t a joke, but the officiating in that game was at replacement-ref level….

==============

Not really, what was ‘replacement level’ was the Browns secondary in the 2nd half. If they hadn’t held or interfered Dallas would have scored 3-4 passing TDs, it was THAT bad.

Actually, the game was over with six seconds to go in regulation when Romo should have been called for intentional grounding. He was in the pocket, the ball was not close to the LOS and no receiver was even remotely in the area. It is irrelevant that the ball slipped out of his hand. Should have been IG and a ten second runoff thus ending the game before they could tie it.

If the NFL admits the officials errored, they should change the outcome because the game was over at that point.
================

I believe for it to be ‘intentional grounding’ the QB has to be in danger of being sacked. On this play there was no pressure on Romo at all. You can’t call IG for a bad pass.

Can’t believe all the crying. These are the refs you wanted. Own it.

Just attaching a Coors Light press conference snippit to your post doesn’t make you funny…it simply makes it look as though you are trying too hard to make others think you are “hip”.

All that being said…the Browns going into the prevent defense/offense for most of the 2nd half caused this loss. If you watch the good teams, they don’t care if they have the lead, they stick to their guns and try to step on the opponent while they are down…the Browns are constantly playing not to lose rather than trying to win.

Here, wttoolman…let me try

PLAYOFFS??? You’re talking about PLAYOFFS???

Anyone laughing???

Translation: Dallas picked up a didn’t lose today, not a win. And RGIII might pose bigger problems than Weeden.

See you Thursday, Jerrah.

Jasons job on the line? WHAT? We can only play with who is healthy. and at ALOT of positions we are winning with second and third stringers.
Jason is doing just fine.
Listen EVERY NFL team plays us like it is the super bowl. Expect tough games from all teams!
We are Americas Team!
Jason is building a DYNASTY. Just look at the talent he has drafted.
Next year shore up the oline, and dilne. Games are won in the trenches. Cowboys = Bright Future!

PS JERRY, this isnt madden! Leave Jason ALONE and quit making coaching carousels to confuse our players by installing new coaches and schemes and systems!

Some of the Browns’ receivers routes were horrible, so they deserved to lose anyway.

If the NFL admits the officials errored, they should change the outcome because the game was over at that point.

New rule: No hair sticking out of players helmets.
