If you keep the video going, Collinsworth is still talking about the non-call two drives later.

i wish there was a way to quantify bad calls per game so i could statistically back my fury at these games. maybe it's just my hatred clouding my vision but how is it every. single. cowboys game we play has some unbelievably, objectively awful call or no-call?

My granddad was a Cowboys fan. Every game of theirs I can remember seeing, they've gotten blatant help from the refs. We aren't special.

i hate conspiracy theories and seeing games like the playoffs last year where the refs said dez bryant didn't secure the catch gives me hope. but my gosh, it's just unbelievable.

especially the james anderson horse collar in 2012. no-calls are one thing. but calling a critical 4th quarter 15-yarder on something that didn't even actually happen and should've been challenged by every other judge on the field? inexcusable, unforgivable.

I was a Cowboys fan from 1st grade until we got the Panthers. 

Then i was baptized in a tub of Cheerwine and as i came out of the water i heard that angelic melody that calls us all home. Going to Carolina in my mind.

Sweet baby James with that sweet Carolina bbq sound removed the scalesfrom my eyes and i saw the light friends.

The book of Karl Hankton says if you love Cheerwine and bbq and the smell of honeysuckle while stuck on I77 then you too shall see the light.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
