It doesn't make any sense since that rule was not violated. Dungy and a lot of other people are ignorant of that. There is a separate rule where it could have been a flag, but it is at the discretion of the ref to throw the flag. They decided a warning to Dez was fine and thus didn't need to throw the flag.

Hilarious to see the Cowboy hate.
No hate on sitting there at 4th and 1 ready to take a delay of game penalty instead of getting a fucking yard and controlling your own fate.
Not hate on the punter shanking the kick. Guess you should of went for it for real you faggots.
No hate for the defense imploding in the second half and allowing the cowboys to get the lead
No hate on not being able to drive down the field and get a score when it counted.
Did the Lions get fucked? Yup. Should of been 3 and 1 not 4th. Didn't cost them the game though as there were plenty of blown opportunities both before and after that indicating they were incapable of moving the ball into scoring position.

I think Blandino's trying to save face there but that's besides the point. Let's just move on, shall we.
While some will not give Dallas any credit, I think they're suited for a game at Lambeau. Detroit offered one of the larger challenges defensively, a team that could rush with 4, only play 7 in the box and force the team to throw more than they wanted to (it was only the 6th time this season Tony had more than 30 attempts, he had 11 such games in 2013).
GB will probably have to cheat a bit down in the box to contain Murrey but that leaves 1-on-1 coverage on either Williams or Dez. GB's linebackers are pretty good so the middle of the field role players won't have as big an impact as they did against Detroit. Romo is playing relatively smart football and trying not to give the other team a chance at stealing the ball away. If Dallas is going to score it's going to rest on the Three Amigos.
On the other side it's going to be important for Dallas to limit the big plays and make sure tackles. I like the way the D-line stepped it up down the stretch. Don't let Nelson and Cobb beat them deep, contain Lacy. A pretty tall order. Have to hope Rodgers is still a bit gimpy so he doesn't rattle off some runs.
These teams are equally suited to play each other. Also, GB is 8-0 at home while Dallas went 8-0 on the road. One team will have that streak broken. I'm a homer, so I think GB loses but it'll be close. Figure, 34-30 with Dallas actually holding off GB at the end after a GB FG and recovering the onside kick with 3 minutes left.

What are you, new here?
The facemask is irrelevant. They missed that call. They did NOT miss the PI. That's what's being discussed. Bringing up another missed call doesn't justify the first being fucked up.
Mike Pereira agreed also BTW. Like any non troll/Cowboys fan.
I seriously don't even give a fuck. I just don't want to move on because I have nothing better to do. Also is Kedwyn another lifelong Cowboys fan who just showed up now that they're good?

So you completely missed the first half? Lions were the beneficiaries of a similar chain of bad officiating early in the game that handed them a TD. Thanks for chiming in on how the entire game went when you didn't watch it all.
I see a potential defensive hold before the ball was in the air. The contention was that the hold happened after the ball was released and therefore was a PI. The video shows that clearly wasn't the case.

lol bandwagon. I'm only new here because I didn't know there was so much fun shit talk going on here. Got bored a few weeks ago and found it when I decided to browse more of the site. I've been sporting a cowboys avatar pretty much since I got here. I only switched a couple months ago.
lol do you even football? There is no such thing as a meaningless cowboys-redskins game.
lol
What are you, new to football? It's not a penalty if your action was caused by the action of an opposing player. It's always been like that. That's not even a rare thing to run into. The Facemask is the most relevant thing about that play
The hold isn't what people are calling the PI. The PI is right before the ball hits Hitchens when his left hand presses and moves Pettigrew's right shoulder backwards.

By all means, provide 20 other examples of thrown flags with called penalties that got overturned because of an uncalled penalty. Let's see Ed Hochuli saying a penalty didn't count because of an uncalled penalty. Also find me one official who said the facemask was why this got overturned. I'll wait.

Only idiots are saying it lost them the game. Just like only idiots are saying it was the right call because of another, totally uncalled penalty.
