Giants at Cowboys (1 Viewer)

I looked at the second to last play that started with six seconds a few times. It was at least seven seconds that play, clock didn't start for two seconds, that's insane that the home team can control the clock

Gotta say....premier WRs TRY to get their feet down in bounds there...that close to the end line they aren't going to reach backwards towards the OOB line to brace the fall.Dez has a ton of talent, but a ten cent brain

oh come ON. that was an AMAZING catch that .0001% of football players could make. give me a ####### break. Dez haters are funny.

He did a nice job of getting open and the safety blew it by not hitting Dez or the ball ... But fairly routine catch that he did not make

Wish the rules were different regarding catches in the end zone. So many great plays overturned by a centimeter of white paint.

I agree..if the refs deem it was a great catch it should be a TD...make it like the NBA with a three step great dunk.

This play doesn't show his goofball side. Premier WR's are ALWAYS aware of the end line and sidelines and make every effort to come down in bounds on every catch. Reaching back like that is very much a natural thing...doesn't make him a bad WR or any less talented...but if he's ever to get to the next level and become the premier WR his talent level dictates, he needs to remain aware of that endline on that catch, and NOT reach backwards and touch it on the way down.



I know it wasn't conscious, but it was almost as if he knew how far to reach out his arm to touch the line when they show it in slow mo

3 years in the league, babied by the boys and he still makes stupid mistakes(kick return) even after they lecture him last week. When the F is he going to "get it".

Let's not forget that the last Dallas drive should not have even happened. Bradshaw clearly had the first down on the Giants previous drive.

One of the most painful losses I can remember. :(

Doesn't compare to about 3 or 4 last year that hurt a ton more. This loss was totally predictable.

I agree. They should start awarding TDs based on effort.

No, but maybe more leeway on a finger touching white paint rather than the other 99.9% of his body. Years ago that was a TD with little discussion. I just find it disappointing that we can't celebrate TDs anymore until a 3 minute review has taken place.

A body part touching out of bounds has always been, and always will be, no catch. Replay is the only reason they're able to see it sometimes, but never has OoB been "different".

Thanks for the enlightenment. 30 years of watching football and I never understood what out of bounds meant.

Forget leeway.We don't need boundaries. They limit the drama and excitement of the game.
