Haven’t seen the game on television yet, but this is the penalty that had me throwing my hands up in the air in the stands asking “What the hell?” There are plenty of other reasons why they lost the game that I’m sure y’all are covering in detail, but at the game it looked like Kyzir took what would be an offensive charge, and on replay it looks worse as he was picked by the WR.
The drive ended in 7 points for the Cowboys after this 4th down stop at midfield was turned into a 1st & 10.
The other big killer (among plenty of other killer penalties) was the illegal motion that wiped out the TD. As pointed out below, this ticky-tack call was ignored earlier in the game. Bottom line, they need to give Storm Norton help or give up some draft capital in a trade for a RT. 😡
Huge game on Sunday coming up, and a lot of work needs to be done.

The Kyzir White call was so early in the game that most people forgot about it. I couldn’t believe what I saw. It should have served as a warning of what was to come

We ran 12 plays inside the redzone yesterday. Only once did we run a running play down there... a 5-yard run by Jackson... for 1st down.
1st and goal from the 2... and we didn't run once.

The first play was a touchdown that was moved back to the 7 because of the illegal motion penalty, so they only got one crack from the 2.

Asante Samuel is playing like a veteran already. Had a very strong game.
Nas Adderley may have had his best game as a pro. He had to make a ton of open field tackles and didn’t miss. Almost made an acrobatic pick in the end zone too.
Derwin James had a killer second half.
K Murray is not it. Tranquil should get more time.
Mike Williams is it. Balling out now.
Keenan has to stop with stupid penalties and slipping.
Storm Norton got abused. Almost every single play

I have a different take for you: Someone told me that because Dallas is America's Team (big following) they got the calls and because we have a smaller fanbase we get punked. Just telling you what i was told................... Moekid insinuated that the games are being “fixed”, does it really matter why it’s being done? What difference would it make if it’s being done for sport betting or for TV ratings?The main thing that has made the NFL as popular as it is today is the revenue sharing and the salary cap so that there can’t be a New York Yankee type situation in the NFL. Fans like the idea where even the teams from the smaller markets can remain competitive and relevant. the chargers were favored yesterday and the ‘experts’ were all picking them to win. That raises some questions because they didn’t cover and had 11 points wiped off the board by refs. And let’s not mention the fact that the cowboys cut prescott’s output by almost half and the game fell well short of the over of 55 points. You could re-play that game 100 times with the same QBs and defenses and they should combine for more than 55 total points all 100 times, but yesterday they combined for 37 points Am I conflicted or is your post conflicted ?

One of my problems Joe is our illegal motion is a pre-snap penalty. They went in the stands and had a beer after our touchdown THEN eventually threw a flag. I was like what the hell is THAT !!!!!

Soooo... The exact same pass Vs. sack happened to Goff last night, did anyone see it??? I was highly interested in how they would handle it at the time and of course it was a much different decision from the refs. They called an incomplete pass and then a few seconds later hit him with intentional grounding.

I think I said this before but on that sequence you had to go run first and Ekeler used to be able to go over the top.

That was particularly egregious Yes, and I’m still waiting for abushi to be illegally downfield while illegally using his hands to someone’s face while punching them on the chest with one leg behind the LOS. and yes, the delayed flag after the chargers get the big 3rd down conversion or a score. But perhaps the worse is the other team being allowed to tackle, trip, or hang on to and be dragged by our wide receivers with no flags. and let’s not forget the incidental contact turned pass interference against asante in washington. it’s probably pure unadulterated charger bias on my part but it sure as hell seems like the zebras have been deliberately nailing this team with an unusual dose of HUGE penalties!

Justin herbert has run two QB sneaks between linsey and fieler for 2 yards a pop each

Even if you don't make it, the LB's are forced to step up and play honest. 2nd and goal on the 1 yard line is not a bad place to be. The play calling was atroscious on Sunday.
