gspdx Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000058872/article/mathias-kiwanuka-complains-about-cowboys-holding?module=HP11_headline_stackI thought the Dallas CBs did alot of holding. On many of the replays they showed of the "great" coverage it seemed they were grabbing, pulling, etc. Maybe I'm wrong and that is the norm. And I don't want to blame the refs. But I was wondering if anyone else thought the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhawk4 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I thought there were a couple of times Carr got away with some stuff, but it would've been hard to call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gspdx Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 Sure comes across like a big baby to me, trying to blame the loss on replacements how IMO had a pretty good game!I agree. Overall I thought the replacements refs were a non-story and called a really good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimJaime Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Sure comes across like a big baby to me, trying to blame the loss on replacements who* IMO had a pretty good game!edit*I agree with you, I rather the refs let them play than call ticky tacky calls.

hawkeyes Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Exactly, he would've had nothing to say had the regular refs played with the same result..... nor would he have said anything if they had won the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireJimCaldwell Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 The real refs would have made some calls that this group missed, and they would have missed their own too.There was a lot of holding by the Cowboys DB's and by their OL. They were using something to their advantage. It happens.Most teams should receive a scouting report on the officials as well and if one group rarely calls holding them I'm sure the smarter players will try to see what they can get away with.

IndyTrav Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I'd complain about Cruz and his inability to catch a pass....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Elvis Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Good for the Cowboys. They were smart. If the refs aren't calling it, keep doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSO Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Despite the hold like the blatant one on the goal line, they were still only 7 points from a tie...the fumble, corners not covering well, cruz dropping passes, you get the point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superman Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Mathias Kiwanuka should complain about the Giants sucking.This is why we like trsean.I wasn't paying the greatest attention to the game (my Makers on the rocks got in the way), but I seem to remember the Cowboys getting called for way more penalties than the Giants did. I also remember the Cowboys playing more physical and making more plays than the Giants did. Fortune favors the bold... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also remember the Cowboys playing more physical and making more plays than the Giants did. Fortune favors the bold...100% right. Every other play for them was a false start. At one point they were backed up to a 1st and 30. And promptly threw a 45 yard td pass.They were hungrier, wanted it more, and kicked our butt.

smittywerb Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Giants just need to be grateful that the game wasn't as ugly as it should have been. Cowboys should have blown them out but were shooting themselves in the foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southwest1 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Look, I made no secret of the fact that I despise the Dallas Cowboys and that they are my favorite NFL to hate. Having said all that, even I have to admit that Romo, Murray, and Olgetree played a far superior game than the NY Giants did. Hey Victor Cruz, learn to the catch the ball before you try to run up field next time okay. Thank you. Jerry Jones won this round fair and square. The rematch between Dallas and Big Blue will yield a much different result IMO. Your victory will be fleeting and shortlived in scope Mr. Jones. Let's see who ultimately wins the division crown in the NFC East first Jerry before you break your hand patting yourself on the back okay.Kiwanuka shut up okay. You look like a sore loser and spoiled brat. Grow up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
