But he was stumbling, not in control. Needed to maintain throughout.
Using the refs own words from the transcript, they said they overturned it EXCLUSIVELY because they personally believed Dez wasn't intending to extend the ball. Not for any other reason. They openly admit that, had they believed he been extending the ball, it would have been a catch. Therefore a football move would have invalidated the use of the "Calvin Johnson rule".
Translation: They overturned a call based on a subjective estimation about what was going on in a player's head. That isn't what review is meant to do. They didn't claim he DIDNT extend the ball, they said he didn't INTEND to.
Sorry, but that's bullshite. You don't get to make calls based on your best guess as to their intentions. If it was extended, then its a catch. Period. Doesn't matter what you think he was trying to do.

Correct, and Dallas did many other things to lose that game. They could have easily had a three score lead midway through the 3rd quarter.
However, that doesn't change the fact that Dallas should have been n the one yard line with a chance to go up by a FG margin with under 4 minutes to play. With all their mistakes, Dallas earned the right to try and stop Aaron Rodgers for a trip to the NFC title game.
No, they didn't lose simply because of the bad call. Green Bay played like shite for almost three full quarters and Dallas had many chances to put the game out of reach. That doesn't excuse what happened.

No doubt. We should shut down the message board and just post box results. No discussions.

Posted by Roger Klarvin Yeah I have no clue what he is seeing. Even most saying it wasn't a catch aren't trying to argue he didn't have possession PRIOR to hitting the ground. He clearly caught it with both hands, moved it over into his left arm and extended it all without the ball moving loose at all.
Never said he didn't have possession. I said he did not maintain possession.

So you don't believe he stretched/jumped for the endzone

Blahahahahahahaaaaa!!!! Wow! Good explanation.

So you believe he jumped?

Bwahaha...u mad

I truly have no idea how one could arrive at that conclusion. It requires you to believe it was easier for Bryant to do what he did than to simply tuck the ball away.

The ball did not extend past his helmet. That's not a reach, it's trying to cushion

Ah, so you believe dez bryant defies gravity and physics.
Personally, I don't think he is that great.

Looks like a catch but going by the NFL rules that I have heard repeated, No sir, No Catch and thus no real controversy like last week.
