This has to be bitached about, those biased refs

[Basbear]

Re-watching in pieces, 4-6 calls were GIVEN to the blowboys. Fire the whole crew and let them move back to Dallas, total jobber. Shocking the Panthers were able to win, many were for 1st down and tone setting calls too. All in favor for bad guys...

NFL needs Dallas to be relevant, it’s obvious. Unfortunately for the NFL they haven’t really been relevant since the 90’s.

Peppers tipped that field goal against the Cowboys in 2005. Twenty years later, not much has changed with the refs.

That RTP on Prescott was a total bitch call and bailed them out on what would have been another failed drive.  It was a clean hit.

It's nothing new though.  Any time we play the Cowboys in the regular season they get generous spots, usually more than one questionable penalty that extends a drive for them or kills one for the Panthers, and more often than not a handful of no-calls on PI or holding.  The exceptions are the two playoff games and the 2015 beatdown on Thanksgiving.

That ball hit him under the arm and the way the ball was moving visibly changed.  I will go to my grave believing that.  Also Steve Smith getting ejected for like, touching a ref's waist.

Just a gigantic coincidence that that was a game the Cowboys needed to stay alive for the playoffs, if I remember correctly.

The amount of players I’ve seen touching the refs lately keeps bringing that up from my memory. I always assumed that was a no tolerance policy but I guess not.

funny how we all knew the ref were going to screw us and be one sided coming into the game and they picked up right were they left off

It really is insane how they always try to rig the game vs Dallas. Two exceptions being our playoff games. 
 

Had we lost it definitely would have been right up there with the 2014 Playoffs vs 49ers, Dallas 05, Saints 2018 Playoffs, and SB50 as all time rigged games.

Panthers beat them at home in 2018 too in a game I really don’t recall being that rigged but there’s so many examples of refs just gifting the cowboys bullshit calls. Even in 2021 I remember them missing a fumble when they played in Dallas

Who remembers the night game against Dallas when maybe Romo was a new starter, and the obvious tackle on Drew Carter before the ball arrived, no PI call, changed the whole game.  Thinking 07 maybe?

I loved the Dalton Schultz "his momentum had stopped so it wasn't a fumble even though he wasn't close to being down" BS back in 2021.

06 was the big Romo coming out party.  We got up 14-0 and then the Cowboys outscored us 35-0 the rest of the way.  They even set a franchise record for fourth quarter points, or something appropriately humiliating.

I think 2007 was the one where the DB just tackled Carter before the ball got there.  Matt Moore was the starter in that game.  I think that was the same one where Steve Smith made a catch on his back, the closest ref called it complete, and then Mike Carey came running from the opposite end of the field to call it incomplete.

They haven't even been to an NFC Championship Game since we whooped them in the 96 playoffs
