We were up 21-0...I have never before blamed the officials for a loss but seriously they handed dallas this game. Sure we made some mistakes but Ive never seen so many crucial calls incorrectly ruled by the officials. The two calls on eugene sims were the worst IMO...a phantom roughing the passer and a holding call that was inexcusable both at huge moments in the game...Weren't we just up 17-0? What the heck happened??

Exactly he avoided a blocker and they called holding on him...and the roughing the passer his hand hit Romo's shoulder. Just awful callsHow the hell does he get called for holding when he gets a sack? Total BS, the reciever was in the backfield and I didnt think he held him as much as he brushed him outta his way on the way to the QB.
Refs didn't help the situation.
The refs*Tony Romo engineered the largest comeback win in Cowboys history.
Sure, but the Rams did it to themselves. I've seen games (in different sports as well) that have actually been decided by poor officiating. Not just penalties being called, I'm talking about things like the fail Mary, or a goal in hockey being scored after going out of play and off the net off the goalie, who had stopped play due to the puck being dead. Those are situations where a team gets legitimately screwed.
What happened today, bad calls and all, good teams can overcome it. Rams lost because of their play/lack of play. I just hate when people act like the refs are the only reason why we lost, that takes the stance that our team is fine and just needs luck. Not the case.

Every cowboy fan I have spoken to after the game has said the officials gave the game to the cowboys. Without the help from the officials the cowboys probably get blown out.
So? Cowboy fans are dumb as crap, when did we start listening to them?
Just pointing out that some people can be honest about what they see. I understand your frustration, but not sure why you would fault the Rams for poor officiating.
And I agree cowboy fans are dumb as crap, but even idiots could see that the officiating was very biased.
I hate it when people say this garbage. There are dumb fans of every NFL team, including the Rams. The Cowboys just have a ton of fans, which means we of course have more dumb fans.
Go on DC.com or cowboyszone, and you'll find a bunch of very well-educated football fans. You'll also find some idiots.
@bluecoconuts and your generalizations are so lmao-worthy.
Well, one could argue that the refs "did enuf" to sway the game. If the Rams were a better team, perhaps the refs would have had to "do more" to sway the game.Sure, but the Rams did it to themselves.
