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 did all night...
