Guys this was a make up call for the Packers from when they lost to Seahawks on a disputed call a few years back. NFL wanted a rematch to settle the score.

There's plenty disputable. The question is whether the 3 steps and a stretch were part of the act of the catch or were after he had already made the catch. This act of the catch and when the act ends and a football move begins, is not defined anywhere. That's a fact. So it's open to interpretation. My interpretation is that he caught the ball and THEN took 3 steps and a stetch and that the stretch was separate from the act of the catch. You can say otherwise. But it's a legit debate and dispute. Period.

Everything you say after he took three steps is irrelevant. He never took three steps with possession of the ball.

[Gonz312]

Dude was bobbling it through these supposed first two steps everyone is referring to. Unless he is a harlam globetrotter there is no reason for the ball to ever be rolling up his forearm/bicep and be considered possession. The stretch on the other hand is made during solid possession, so whether you want to consider that a football move seperate to the act of falling down is the biggie.

And again, we will need to agree to disagree on that. I saw him secure the catch and gain possession as the first foot hit the ground. He then took two additional steps, and most importantly, a stretch. I did not see the ball the move or come free until after the stretch.

We can agree to disagree, but in no way shape or form did he secure and gain possession of the ball with his "first step." I will give him his "second step" as one step. His "third step" was his foot dragging the ground as he was falling. Because he was taking the catch to the ground, he had to maintain control throughout the process, which he clearly did not. We can all hate the rule, but they got the call right. Unlike the Dallas/Detroit game, you will not see any rebuttals from the league office.

Lets turn the page on this guys,Dallas couldn't stop Rodgers from killing the last three minutes off,make a stop their and they still had a great chance.

[You mad bro]

whether it was a catch or not, KARMA IS A FUKKING BITCH!!!

not just in football but in life. remember that...

Well I hope karma gets u one day for making fun of children who are mentally ill ...

Stupid fat fukk

[Petey Wheatstraw]

Karma, Packers CHOKE. Let's talk about that now. CHOKE.

[GIVEMETHEMONEY]

Karma, Packers CHOKE. Let's talk about that now. CHOKE.

I agree Karma is a bitch. First 2 trips to the end zone and field goals!! lmfao

[Double Bogey]

You hold a grudge like a woman. Time to man up and move on fruity.

I apologize and I do.

No excuse for what happened by the NFL. Cowboys worked hard and together to try and make it this year.

Unforgivable!

[ZetaPsi808]

Archie....I understand it's a rule. And no amount if arguing is gonna change things.

But the fact that yankee jew prikk jerkoff Mike Perieira has an opinion on it doesn't mean a motherfukkin thing.

He's a Cowboy hater.

it doesnt matter if hes a cowboy hater or not. based on the rules it was not a catch. its very cut and dry here.

dez tried to extend the ball across the goal line before he had full control of the ball. as a result of him trying to score, the let the ball touch the ground when he did not have it fully secured

dez should have just secured the catch and went down on the 1 yard line. but no he had to be greedy and wanted to score the touchdown

He had full control of the ball. Indisputable!

except he didnt tho

[Salmon Steak]

The ball touched the goal line before he lost control. The play is over TD. Dallas wins the superbowl. Romo robbed again.

Beating NE would have been tough, but the hunger probably says your right.

lol ok pal

[nyplayer33]

People are going crazy on this dez catch/no catch..the one with guy in end zone was tons worse. Rules are clear no catch.change rules then

[nyplayer33]

Dallas wins sb lol..maybe as sports has told you..sea might have played dallas and won by 34 as romo's center snapps ball into endzone...wait that happened in subpr bowl..

[nyplayer33]

dez doesn't play to win, he plays to be the star and win. Possibly as the catch/no catch shows..instead of securing the ball he had to be the superstar and now incomplete

[Petey Wheatstraw]

Dez is a high competitor.
