I am not saying the calls were missed, or even bad. At one time or another, every team has calls go with them, or, against them in every game each week. It happens.

But I challenge you to prove to me, that any of these 'calls' you are complaining about had a direct outcome on the game? Did a missed fumble in the first 6 seconds of the game REALLY seal the fate of the Eagles? OR were there like, I don't know.....FOUR quarters left to play to decide that outcome.

You have specific calls in mind, obviously. Show me where they decided or impacted the outcome of the game?

Gauntlet = Tossed

Lets start with the saints debacle, cuz thats my first real look at bullshit. The catch/non catch calls were ridiculously one sided. Especially when sticking with "the call on the field" .. then that "int" that sealed the game for the cowgirls that obviously hit the friggin ground, that was a direct influence on the outcome of the game. And when I mentioned the past 4 or weeks, it all started for me with our game against Houston. Blatantly robbing the skins at a chance for a game winning field goal, to keep the division closer.. we'd have been 7-3 .. Colt may have came out against Dallas and played much better with more confidence. My point is, as it was before, that the league is influencing certain games and division races the way they want. They know the NFCE is one of if not the biggest $$ making market in the league, and so that is a factor in considering the bullshit. Sure, they called that penalty on Zeke for lowering his head. Good call. They call a few here and there on a first and 10, nothing drive threatening or too damaging to your squad in the moment and on the overall scheme. Of course they want the numbers on their side, but its a VERY calculated way of doing it to give a normal fan and ppl like you this exact argument. Where the hell is my tinfoil hat???
