Should be, but not gonna happen. They already called forward progress. It's a waste of a challenge at this point.

Re: *****OFFICIAL DALLAS COWBOYS VS GREEN BAY PACKERS 11/29/07 THREAD*
 

Wow, from the last replay certainly you can see that Harris stripped him. I'm not cheering for either team (except gogogo TO fantasy points) but that was fairly clear that it should be Green Bay ball.

Nice good call

Huh?

Cody

By the time the guy beside calls forward progress, it's not a strip. So good call. Obv too fast on the forward progress, but that can't be reviewed.

[/ QUOTE ]

The fact he called forward progress makes it a bad call. DUCY?

[/ QUOTE ]

No I'm talking about the ruling of it not being a turnover. That's the only ruling I care about as a Cowboys fan. Obviously terrible forward progress call. We both agree.

Wow not even a reach-around for GB

Re: *****OFFICIAL DALLAS COWBOYS VS GREEN BAY PACKERS 11/29/07 THREAD*
 

Dallas ball. Don't really agree but whatever. It was a close call.

Re: *****OFFICIAL DALLAS COWBOYS VS GREEN BAY PACKERS 11/29/07 THREAD*
 

He didn't even blow it dead till after the strip. The whistle wasn't even in his mouth when harris had the ball.

Question: Do you think its worth a challenge even if you know it won't be overturned just so that the refs can see that they screwed you and may have it in the back of their minds that they "owe you one"? I have reffed basketball, and this did influence me if I felt as if I was giving too many bad calls to one team or player, but of course I was not nearly as good of a ref as these guys who are some of the best in the world.

Re: *****OFFICIAL DALLAS COWBOYS VS GREEN BAY PACKERS 11/29/07 THREAD*
 

You never want to just waste a challenge 5 mins in just to prove a point. You never know what will happen throughout the game and how many bad/overturnable calls will occur. This is especially true of a game of this importance.

Re: *****OFFICIAL DALLAS COWBOYS VS GREEN BAY PACKERS 11/29/07 THREAD*
 

Ok, I'll admit it, I like Gumbell. He could obviously use some more emotion, but I think his delivery is smooth and he has some decent insights. He noticed TO in the backfield, says who's in coverage, etc. I'll take that over some idiot screaming that doesn't bring anything intelligent to the table.

BTW, I heard Peyton Manning has a laser, rocket arm.

Re: *****OFFICIAL DALLAS COWBOYS VS GREEN BAY PACKERS 11/29/07 THREAD*
 

PokerFink, I think a lot of the people pointing out his mistakes are doing it because he did it so often last season and a lot of people talked about it. I agree the mistakes are meaningless, but it does irk a lot of people. I didn't know if you knew that/saw the games he did last year.

Re: *****OFFICIAL DALLAS COWBOYS VS GREEN BAY PACKERS 11/29/07 THREAD*
 

He's improved a bit since last year. I remember when he used to refer to a punt as "turning it over on downs". Unless I am the idiot here, which is certainly possible.

He should

Ive been in the sporting events threads for almost every game this season and I have yet to see a game where someone on here isnt bitching about how bad the announcers are. I personally couldn't care less.

Re: *****OFFICIAL DALLAS COWBOYS VS GREEN BAY PACKERS 11/29/07 THREAD*
 

Franchise,

I didn't see his games last year, didn't have NFL Network. I'll keep an open mind the rest of the game and see if my opinion changes.

PS I thought that drive graphic was pretty sweet.

PSS I heard Roy Williams hits kinda hard.

I agree, people were talking [censored] on Gus Johnson last week, and I'm not the type to complain about announcing, but Gumbell is an awful play by play guy. He is great in the studio, but he is just terrible, and it sucks he is doing such a big game.

Give me Gus Johnson plz

Ordinarily agree but his voice itself really bothers me. If they got someone with a deep, pleasant-sounding voice I can let the occasional absurd statement pass, but he sounds like a eunuch.

Re: *****OFFICIAL DALLAS COWBOYS VS GREEN BAY PACKERS 11/29/07 THREAD*
 

Cowboy's offense is looking like too much for the Pack.

I have no problem with his knowledge, his voice just really pisses me off when he is doing play by play, I don't know what it is but like the tone is just not right for play by play. It actually pisses me off because if not for the voice hes better than almost all of these other morans doing play by play. <3 Collinsworth tho.

[censored] NFL netork.

Let the professionals do the broadcast, not broadcasters with only experience from commenting on Olympic Games (taped delay of course).

Also, "First Period" (after the Cowboys second FG) is this hockey? no. STFU.
