Call on the field on that fumble was bogus. Cover man wasnt blocked into the returner he ran straight into him; there just happened to be a blocker nearby.

Geez, doug. how long you been off your meds?

phokus is a phoktard, period. Multiple times on this forum, I've seen someone get modded for pointing out someone was black when it had no impact, so it should be held the other way.

I can understand the Detroit call. The pass was uncatchable for the position of the receiver. There's nothing he could have done to have caught the ball. If the defensive end had turned around, it would have just been an interception, and the only way Detroit could have caught it was to actually commit pass interference in order to catch the otherwise uncatchable ball.

This play looks like Dallas got screwed. I am pretty surprised their team even went back on the field again after that call.

Detroit ... I feel sorry for their lots.

But the Cowboys were robbed. :'(

Awesome nobody posted the rule yet. Here is the rule straight from the book:

"If a player goes to the ground in the act of catching a pass (with or without contact by an opponent), he must maintain control of the ball throughout the process of contacting the ground, whether in the field of play or the end zone. If he loses control of the ball, and the ball touches the ground before he regains control, the pass is incomplete. If he regains control prior to the ball touching the ground, the pass is complete.

If the ball hadn't have touched the ground, he would have been golden. The Packers have burned more than once by this rule, that is why I am familiar with it.

Per the letter of the rule the Dez Bryant call/overturn was infinitely more correct than the original Calvin Johnson call, in which the ball never actually touched the ground.
