Refs Blow Call, Help Giants Score
TEAMS: New York Giants,  Dallas Cowboys
PLAYERS: Amani Toomer,  Demarcus Ware
Well, the refs already blew a call in this important game. On 3rd and 6, DeMarcus Ware was called for offsides. Unfortunately, he was not offsides. This penalty gave the Giants a 3rd and 1, which they got. On the very next play Amani Toomer scored after some poor tackling attempts. However, the play should have never happened and Dallas should have had the ball but the blown call extended the drive. Giants lead 7-0 early in the first.

    Thank God somebody else understands the importance of this blown call. Free 7 points for the giants. I don' want to ehar any crap from Giant fans saying it was too early in the game to have an impact.
    The same thing happened when Dalles played Green Bay. Ware flew off the line (with the snap), sacked Favre and forced a fumble. Refs called him offsides, but replays showed that he just got an incredible jump. I believe the NFL admitted the bad call, but I cannot find confirmation on that.

    Not many people understand it! I just heard Jerry Jones talking about the intenional grounding call that the league admitted was a mistake...he didn't even mention the offsides on first drive! That was huge!
