Re: Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (About those vacant position
Bryant secured the ball, tried to make the end zone. The ball did move, but he NEVER lost possession. How can it be?
Bullshit.
Refs have really screwed the game this year.
The NFL sux. Goodell sucks. They both suck.
That catch ought to go down as one of the greatest in playoff history. It's better than "The Catch" that the TE from SF made years ago when Montana was QB, the one they replay ad infinitum when playoff time comes around....

I feel your pain on the cowboys Ketch. Hell, i destroyed 10 card board boxes in my house that needed to be broken down for the trash. It sure made me feel better but the film my daughter made was not my best moment. Refs you can suck it.. When you start focusing on parts of rules and ignoring other parts of rules and forget common sense and the play is ruled a catch on the field then you suck!!!!

No the worst call ever was the pickup of the pass interference call last week versus Detroit as the NFL said it was a wrong call.
Even though I disagree with the rule this call was per the rules and the NFL agrees it was correct .
The ball was moving the whole time he was moving forward.
Lions say its a bitch when you have to play by the rules

Re: Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (About those vacant position
Complain all you want about bad call or stupid rule. Not sure I would even disagree. How about the phantom personal foul on GB when they were inside the 10? Look, there were over 4 minutes left in the game and Dallas couldn't stop Rogers that second half regardless of how many legs he was hobbling on.
To say the better team didn't win is childish. As you like to say, "Be better."

Re: Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (About those vacant position
Sorry, but I've watched that play over a dozen times and Bryant is still trying to maintain control of the ball when he goes down. His momentum takes him toward the end zone. No catch. Was it indisputable enough to be overturned...I don't know. But it was not a catch, if you're going to go by the rulebook.

Ketch I'm probably as sick as you over that call. However, we still had an opportunity to stop them and we didn't. I can't blame this game on the refs considering we missed multiple opportunities. The best teams overcome the penalties and the Cowboys are just not quite there yet. Assuming we draft defense we should be much improved next year defensively.
The Dez catch was one of the great clutch NFL playoff catches of all time that got sh*t on by NFL Refs. Damn shame.

You and Ketch and every other Cowboy fan, jeez. F'ing read what I wrote. I'M NOT DISAGREEING WITH YOU THAT IT SHOULD BE A CATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What no one is addressing, F IT. Live in your misery.

Absolutely. It's been the major gripe for some time with bias attributed to parts of the country represented by more coverage. It's the major reason people think the rankings are slanted towards the SE or SEC geographic footprint. It's a natural line of thought.
Kudos to keeping an open mind that the entire system could be improved. It's a human based system with limited measurable data. So it will always be subjective. But, a systematic evaluation could only benefit any system, much less on propagated by people with economic incentives toward the outcomes.

Interesting quote. Did Brandon Pettigrew say that while he was grabbing Hitchens' facemask, or did Suh say that as he was stomping on another player lying on the ground?

Oh boy, Ketch, you're really fully on board that roller-coaster/train wreck that's knows as Liverpool FC fandom... Good luck with that... There's a lot of misery in your future - the Cowboys v GB game should be a good primer for you... By the way, did you ever think you'd root for a team where your dream aspiration is to be fourth best each year...
Re: Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (About those vacant position
I absolutely agree. The video review means they should have been able to get it right and there was no evidence to over turn the call on the field. The one referee was right there at the one out of bounds so you know he saw the play and ruled it a catch with the ball just short of the goal line.
Of course the ball was moving the whole time he was moving forward. He had the ball in his hands and he had control of it. Geesh !
Ketch -
I will go to my grave bitter over the '79 Oilers/Steelers playoff game where Mike Renfro was robbed of a touchdown catch. I completely feel your pain and bitterness. And I was 8 years old when that happened.
I watched the Dez CATCH and that is exactly what it was - a CATCH. I have watched plenty of other NFL games and seen them call it a catch when you take the ball and tuck it away, like Dez did. Plus, Dez had already taken the ball down from in the air and taken 3 steps, with both hands on the ball.
Dallas was robbed
(BTW - I don't really consider myself a Texans fan)

It was the correct call by "rule".

Re: Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (About those vacant position
It was a BS interpretation of a BS rule! Fact is that Dez had control of the ball longer than Calvin Johnson did (in both of his anti-catch calls). If the difference between that rule and a catch is a "football" move then I'm not sure what constitutes a "football move". Dallas did have a small opportunity after but it was very small. Huge difference between last week and this week as one call did not affect a soon-to-be-certain go ahead score. Refs affected the outcome which should never happen if it is not certain which it was not.
Interesting that the ref (Steratore) was the same one who called CJ's.

There's some validity to that. Doesn't change the fact that the call wiped what would have been seven points off the board and there was half the time let on the clock than a week ago.
Oh, and the ref forgot to set the clock and let 30 seconds of game-time run off when he shouldn't have after the Dez play.
Total horseshit all the way around.
