    But we WANTED them to go for another score - at least then there is the chance , however slim, of a turnover. Unlike booting it down the field and letting them kneel. Do it at 20 seconds, fine. But not when there's a minute left to play.

    What do you mean? We're spelling it correctly.

    It's Loose. As in "Can't loose no more games."

    Remember Footloose? It was about people loosing their shoes...or maybe their feet. I'm not sure.

    I saw more PI's and holding not called against us today I don't know what to say. No way were we going to win today

    NO WAY !!! Even though the odds were not even remotely in our favor, you still must try the onside kick. I mean why did Tomlin try it prior to the penalty ? Who knows, maybe Tomlin looked up at the scoreboard and saw that Dallas eeked out a win against Cinci and decided not to risk an late unforseen injury.

    I saw at least one for sure (if not two) I just wish these Refs would make up their minds because generally they call even the most insignificant of PI's

    More than that. They looked like there was no intention of calling it on the Chargers. Once they did, miraculously the receivers were getting open and making catches! Imagine that!

    While SD played better than our guys today, the refs absolutely affected the game. I counted 3 PI/defensive holding calls that should have been made against SD. To be fair, there were several penalties we were guilty of that didn't get called either. In other games today, a penalty is being called every other play. The refs really need some kind of consistency. BTW, I still maintain that the recovery in the end zone was a forward pass and, at worst, we get a penalty for illegal touching of the ball by a lineman. With all the cameras they have covering the game, there's not one with an angle down the L.O.S?

    I also saw the ref pull out his flag ready to throw it and Nothing, he spotted the ball and walked away. Still even if they called them, we sucked moose di*k today. I walked out of the bar on the forward pass fumble recovery for a td. Watched the end of the rats game AT HOME and turned football off till SNF now.

    Oh, no doubt, but you would think that a 3-8 team (4-8) might have had a penalty or 2 before the 3rd quarter.
