If I am being honest, that call could have gone either way. If I were under the hood, I think I would have let that catch stand. But I completely understand why it was overturned by the rules. This is not anywhere near last weeks flag pickup. I am not looking forward to Seattle trashing us next week, but watching Dallas fans bitch about officiating, especially after last weeks game, is very entertaining.

My take away from this is that the curse of Romo is not as strong as the curse of Millen, when it comes to the playoffs.

Of course if Romo does not audible into a pass on 3rd and short late in the first half or Garret remembers he has a running game late in the second half, then this play does not even matter. This loss is on Garret and possibly Romo.

Not going to hear me bitch one time, I will say it was a catch but other than that I don't know what would have happened. Would have been plenty of time for GB to come back. Good hard fought game, Dallas should have put themselves in a better position and played better D at the end to give them another shot. 1 play does not cost you a game.

As a Broncos fan, I have to confess I am not a fan of Aqib Talib. The guy seems way overrated and he's far from a shutdown corner.

Good call, bad rule.

Was a good game regardless. Even if Dallas scored it was certainly possible that GB could go back down the field and score again.

Better start then I thought, even if we get past Broncos I cant see beating the pats, was really hoping ravens would win

So conflicted. Do I root for another Manning flame out or another Brady and Belichek smackdown next week? Go Colts.
