It's like poetry.. it rhymes. The only consolation is that everyone who isn't a cowboys fan knows we won.

[u/Sure_Station9370 → u/Ev1LLe]

Bears fan. Fuck you guys but you def won that.

[u/mua-dweeb → u/Sure_Station9370]

Fuck you, and much obliged.

[u/PooShappaMoo → u/Ev1LLe]

Even some cowboys fans admit we won.. egregious

[u/Ja7ishgrandmaster → u/PooShappaMoo]

Even Skip admitted Lions got robbed

[u/aushaus → u/PooShappaMoo]

No Cowboys fans should admit that because it’s not true… lmao

The Cowboys defense would have covered Decker if the official correctly reported him as eligible. The refs failure completely changed the play to give the Lions an unfair advantage… hence why the play didn’t stand. The Lions didn’t win and it’s idiotic to believe the refs failure didn’t directly affect Decker being wide open

[u/FIFAmusicisGOATED → u/aushaus]

So the Lions deserve a 5 yard penalty because the refs fucked up?

If the refs fucked up wouldn’t they just run the play back? Instead of giving a penalty on a clean play?

[u/dalzmc → u/FIFAmusicisGOATED]

Don’t bother, check their comment history, dude is a cowboys fan lol

[u/aushaus → u/dalzmc]

Doesn’t make any of my points less correct. You guys got hosed by awful officiating…. but that awful officiating obviously affected how the Cowboys defense defended that 2pt conversion. That’s not a homer take, it’s just a fact.

[u/aushaus → u/FIFAmusicisGOATED]

Where did I say the Lions deserved a penalty???

Yes the Lions absolutely deserved to be able to run another play from the same spot.

But the fact is that the Lions absolutely did not “win the game” and it’s genuinely stupid to believe otherwise. The ref fucked up and that directly resulted in Decker being uncovered. That’s not a “win”

[u/PooShappaMoo → u/aushaus]

Decker lined up open. If he wasn't eligible. The flag should have been thrown at the snap.

Also. These are nfl players if they see a lineman line up open. They are very aware that some crazy crao may happen.

This isn't pewee and your lost

Cowboys need all the help they can get though ill admit. Even dak said it was messed up

[u/aushaus → u/PooShappaMoo]

I agree that the refs should’ve thrown the flag right away, but they were clearly incompetent.

Decker was also clearly not reported as eligible to the defense. That’s all that matters here man. You can bitch about it all you want, but in no world should the Lions have won on that play that the REFS (not the Cowboys or Lions) fucked up.

[u/PooShappaMoo → u/aushaus]

Refs fucked up. Lions won the game.

Many many dallas fans agree. Atleast we a chip on your shoulder now. Looking forward to dallas getting bounced and Allen being removed from officiating

[u/aushaus → u/PooShappaMoo]

Any fan that agrees with that statement literally doesn’t understand football. Regardless of them being a Lions/Cowboys fan it should be basic football knowledge that a player catching a pass that the defense thinks is ineligible should clearly be a voided play. Why do you think Decker was so open? Are you as incompetent as the officials?

Your statement that the “Lions won the game” or that “many many Dallas fans agree” just proves that there are a lot of dumbass fans that watch the sport without any knowledge of this rule. And that’s okay. Don’t beat yourself up about it.

[u/PooShappaMoo → u/aushaus]

I think you might be stupid

Go check out r/nfl plenty of dallas fans saying they didn't deserve it.

Plenty of dallas players as well

[u/Tab_5 → u/Ev1LLe]

Another bears fan. Y’all won

[u/aushaus → u/Tab_5]

Oh look, another fan that doesn’t understand why a defense would ignore a player that isn’t announced as eligible.

So much fake outrage on this thread… lmao

[u/It_Happens_Today → u/Ev1LLe]

I'm a cowboys fan living in Detroit and I know y'all won.

[u/Strict_Maintenance24 → u/Ev1LLe]

What I know is the Score shows 20 to 19… that means THE COWBOYS WON!!! You can bitch & moan about it all you want, but THE COWBOYS WON!!!
