For those of y'all asking, the NFL reviews/admits missed calls on plays literally every week. Every team submits calls to the league.

The Cowboys most assuredly sent calls in. Odds are that won't be publicly reported, though.

Again, spot'em 3 points and they still lose. Sure as hell not spotting a TD considering you hadn't come close to scoring since the first Q.
And with that, I'm done.

Spot us 3 points... then start your drive from the 20 instead of the 45. You were stopped 3 different times on the final drive. Twice you were bailed out by penalties (of course they didn't miss them on us). The third time you went for it on 4th down and needed a blatant hold to convert. The call changed the whole game. The fact you can't admit that is a little shocking as I've always took you as a logical poster. The whole football world recognizes this.

By the way, you out-gained us by a whopping 39 yards in the second half. You were out-gained in the entire game by by 82 yards. To act like Dallas just DOMINATED the second half is short-sighted. You were gifted a defensive stop by the officials - not the Lions. The call changed the game. You can't admit it. It's kind of pathetic.
 
Lol, 39 yards...didn't realize it was so little.

Dallas was also gifted a tipped ball that was caught by a defender. They weren't good enough to convert that into point, I guess.
 
@FalconsJAdams: Dimitroff will also retain management responsibility for salary cap, player affairs, equipment, sports medicine and performance, and video.

@FalconsJAdams: Assistant General Manager Scott Pioli will take on pro and college scouting and NFL Draft responsibilities, reporting to Dimitroff.

Basically this keeps Pioli away from Houston and it means that we will keep TD.

I approve.
 
You said Houston.

Justin Houston, the Houston Texans?

Definitely Allan Houston.

The Falcons promoted Pioli to scouting director to keep him away from Allan Houston.

Oh and to actually really seriously for realsies to answer your question... Pioli has been linked to the Houston job.
 
Current weather forecasts for this weekend's games:

@AlbertBreer: The Bears have hired Saints director of player personnel Ryan Pace as their new general manager.

Nice hire. Interesting that Pace refused an interview from the Jets.
