95 against Dallas. That one really hurt.

and really did we whine and holler about the calls NOT being called???
Maybe some of the fans did -- and certainly as I was listening to the Westwood One radio guys they noticed the lack of calls. I don't know how much the players complained.
All 22 Aaron to Cook. Cook was the only option. He wasn't really open. Dallas was clearly thinking Hail Mary though

Agree.
Good grief, I thought that game was over and done with. We won despite PI on our WR's NOT being called! I bet that will be like the Dez "Catch" that Dallas harps on and on about.
Get over it Dallas!
We are on to Atlanta.

I said days ago...AR had inches and less than a second to make that play work. No one else was open.

Damn right, Goldie! It's what we do as fans.
I think there's a code of fan conduct that says we MUST bitch about calls/non-calls.....
Seriously, I think most of us have watched football long enough to know that when the playoffs begin, refs tend to ignore most holding calls (offensive or defensive), and PI is not enforced unless it's particularly egregious. We generally hope that it's called the same for both teams, and we avoid the 'phantom' or bizarre calls like the Intentional Grounding against ARod last week.
FWIW, I think the NFL encourages the refs to be more liberal with judgement and interpretation of defensive holding/PI to encourage scoring. I don't think it's skewed to any particular team, but the refs need to avoid penalizing one team significantly more than the other.
Better view of Aaron's hail Mary against giants
if I knew how to do one of those ROTFL type thingy-dingy's I would put it here. Thanks for sharing, FL-Rob
Assuming you're not on a smartphone, does the posting box have a smiley-face icon above it? Click on that and a bunch of emoticons show up.
This has to be a first.
The day before the next game and last week's game thread is still rolling...
thanks, Fedya. I still didn't see those menu items UNTIL I shrunk my screen. I don't like wearing reading glasses when working on the computer. So, I zoom so the font is larger. However, there is not menu at the top of the REPLY Box.....UNTIL I zoomed out and made the font smaller....then, it appeared. I had never looked that close or used the menu items.
The lack of a menu on the smartphone version is annoying.

I don't think he was throwing it away. I think he was throwing it away where if our guy doesn't get it, no one does. Safe play.
I think he was throwing it to Cobb.
I can think of many things I'd call that throw before I arrived at safe.

Michael Lombardi needs to stop trying to be relevant.
Guess those horsecollar holdings (notice plural) on Davante Adams are all good....right Michael?
It was an even game & evenly called.
I just love how people try to focus on ONE friggin call & try to analyze it & make it "the reason" the Cokeboys lost
Why in the world are there flags on the goal posts in a domed stadium? Jerry World shenanigans with the HVAC maybe? 
Well, I suppose they could flutter from the massive sucking force that emanates from the place....
Well, the flags could have judged how hard GB fans blew out on the left side of the stadium to push Crosby's winner inside the pole.
I assume the rules haven't changed since the 2015 rulebook:
Section 3 - Goal
ARTICLE 1. Crossbar
In the plane of each end line there shall be a centrally placed horizontal crossbar 18 feet, 6 inches in length, the top face of which is 10 feet above the ground. The goal is the vertical plane extending indefinitely above the crossbar and between the lines indicated by the outer edges of the goal posts.
ARTICLE 2. Goal Posts
All goal posts will be the single-standard type, offset from the end line and bright gold in color. The uprights will extend 35 feet above the crossbar and will be no less than 3 inches and no more than 4 inches in diameter. An orange-colored ribbon 4 inches by 42 inches is to be attached to the top of each post.
I think it's Rule 1.3.2 if I understand NFL rule numbering.
