Once I saw that ball pop up after hitting the ground I said no. The ground jarred it loose.

That's fine. I guess you and I have a different interpretation then. In my opinion, the ball is obviously caught and controlled, Bryant extends his arm for end zone, changing the course of the controlled ball, and it's jarred as it hits the ground after it was possessed and caught.

 

Clearly the rules are the rules, and according to those rules - it was the correct call, so it's moot. Either way I hate the damn packers. Go seahawks

All Dez had to do was catch he ball. He did not need to stretch for a TD. In stretching for a TD, the ball was jarred loose by the ground. Good call.

 

I'll add that I was rooting for Dallas, but Dez routinely acts like an idiot, so I'm not surprised he isn't smart enough to know that the situation called for a catch, not a TD.

 

 

 

being a little harsh. I dont think he was reaching for the endzone. just happened to be in that type of position when he was falling to the ground.

I told you this would be close.

 

And yeah, the Seahawks are gonna murder a gimpy Rodgers.

 

Good thing I didn't bet but if Rodgers was healthy, he might have put more points on the board. :P

Joe Buck just said it and I agree, common sense says DBryant caught the ball, by the letter of the rule, he didn't...

 

stupid rule.

My thoughts exactly. It's unfortunate for the Cowboys.

 

We've seen this rule like 1800 times now, why are people still surprised when it's called incomplete?

Shoulda, coulda, woulda...injuries are part of the game. ;)

Fair play mate.

That the Cowboys could've done a much better job of pressuring Rodgers notwithstanding, huge props to ARodg, even as a Bears fan, can't hate a dude that good.

 

Sucks so bad that even a one legged Rodgers > Cutler :(

Trent Richardson - inactive for a playoff game. What was worse, the Browns drafting him so high or the Colts giving up a 1st round pick after watching him suck?

Hard to believe how many of the Alabama running backs have flamed out at the next level. TRich and Ingram have been mediocre at best. Lacy has been good but seems to be prone to injury due to his running style

Agree. Do not slam the refs for making the call

The Colts.

@ProFootballTalk: Just heard Cowboys defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli is expected to become the defensive coordinator in Tampa.

been the buzz in Tampa since end of the regular season.

So is Leslie Frazier canned?

Ingram had a pretty good year this year.

would appear so.

 

probably next week since the Bucs have to wait for Marinelli's contract to expire.

 

Lovie wanted Marinelli last year but couldnt get him from the Cowboys.

Wow. I don't think the reversal was wrong, I think it's just a bad rule.

 

I hate this rule. He caught the ball and hit his elbow and knee down. The thing that drives me crazy is say he doesn't bobble the ball after that, and keeps the catch, they don't give him the end zone, they will would have marked him at the spot where he was down with his elbow and knee. So if that is the spot he is down, why does what the receiver does after that matter? The rule is stupid.

Rumors as far back as Thanksgiving on this one no surprise.

I hope the whole Luck vs Wilson argument is pretty much dead at this point. Luck is an absolute stud. Wilson is a very good player and a very good game manager, but he isn't as good as Luck.

Just an opinion I have. What's the point of yours?

Why would it be dead? They're both great young qb's and it's a close call on who is better.
