The holding call on the big run for Dallas that clearly wasn't a hold, the phantom PI, the lack of holding calls on Philly, picking up the clear illegal hands to the face flag for no reason at all, Schoonmaker tackled before the ball even got to him on the play where he almost had the TD called, Dak verifying with the ref that Edoga was eligible and then them throwing the flag anyway, etc. Even Greg Olsen of all people was pretty flabbergasted by the calls. The refs were forced to throw some flags at the end on Philly for some really obvious penalties (even though, again, they picked up another obvious one that made Olsen stop mid-sentence lol). Man, what a **** show that was.

Cowboys had a chance to win the game at the end and choked it away, but it looks like the Eagles have now entered Chiefs territory where they amazingly get all the calls their way on a weekly basis (remember the game against Miami where the Eagles didn't have a single penalty? Crazy.)

I don't know if it's gambling or what but NFL refs have really become the worst of the worst across professional sports.

I had the Chargers in a pool but then looked at the Jets schedule, who they've beat and lost to, and changed to take the Jets and the points.

Still happy to see that punt return for a TD though!

Could actually be a good matchup if Aaron Rodgers wasn't injured.

It will be a good matchup by the end....no matter the Chargers lead, it usually comes down to the last play.

Jets have also beaten the Bills and Eagles...so even without Rodgers they've been pretty tough.

That's because the Eagles suck and can only win with help from the refs.

Great. Chargers trying to run out the clock up 14 with 5+ minutes left. Typical Chargers.

Also not true lol. I'm gonna have to start calling you scarecrow cause you love straw man arguments so much.

Cowboys had a chance to win at the end with the ball inside the 10 and failed to score. That's on them. Terrance Steele is probably the biggest reason they lost. He played horribly and Reddick made him his bitch all night.

The refs were terrible and favored the Eagles obviously, but the Cowboys had a chance to win at the end despite that and didn't get it done. That's on them.

You can also go back in this thread and see Mariner and I saying they didn't lose cause of the refs but that the refs were bad, yadda yadda yadda.

Nobody spends pages complaining about the refs if they don’t feel it was the reason they lost. Most people just say “I don’t usually blame the refs” as a way to point back to and be “see I don’t even blame the refs” later

The ratio of roster, coaching, player performance commentary on the cowboys end compared to reffing is probably like 97%-3% and that 3% are bjj and Mr. B

It’s like

“I’m not racist but”
