How do you miss this? It wouldn’t be NFL season if we weren’t talking about officiating controversies the day after a big game. The new year got off to a thrilling start with the Buccaneers’ comeback win over the Cowboys on Thursday night. Dak Prescott looked great, 11 months after breaking his ankle, but Tom Brady was equally great and led Tampa Bay on a game-winning drive in the final moments. The biggest play of that drive was a flawless back-shoulder throw from Brady to Chris Godwin that put the Bucs in field goal range. There’s no denying that the timing of the throw was impeccable, but Godwin made the catch easy for himself by, ahem, making a little extra room. Was it offensive pass interference? You be the judge. It looked like a penalty to me, but I wasn’t the one wearing the striped shirt. The non-call essentially won the game for the Bucs, but it wasn’t the only big missed penalty that went against Dallas. Late in the second quarter, the Cowboys took over with great field position after an interception by Trevon Diggs on a botched screen pass. They ended up going three and out and settling for a field goal, but the drive should have been extended if the officials had properly enforced the rules. On the third-down play, Prescott threw a pass over the middle that was broken up by Lavonte David. Upset that he wasn’t able to secure the interception, David ripped off his helmet and slammed it on the turf. Every football fan knows that’s a penalty, but David wasn’t called for one. Of course the Godwin play is going to garner more attention, because it led directly to the game-winning field goal. But Cowboys fans should be upset with the missed call on David, too. The non-call on Godwin is a matter of debate, but the rulebook is crystal clear about taking your helmet off. David’s display of frustration should have been a 15-yard penalty that gave the Cowboys a new set of downs at the 8-yard line. It’s inexcusable that such an obvious penalty would go uncalled. There’s no guarantee that Dallas would have capitalized by scoring a touchdown, but every scoring opportunity is valuable in a game as close as this one. https://www.si.com/extra-mustard/2021/09/10/cowboys-buccaneers-lavonte-david-missed-call-helmet

Not at 1-1 in a game they were in to the end. Pitt beat a Super Bowl favorite, on their turf, week one. Raiders are loaded this year. They have a deep team.

MDT is 2.2 + on departures before today so still looks like 2-3 when the cool air gets here and they start back down.

I would have expected nothing less of the Central LSV hot trend this summer. LOL. Pitt beat you today though.

Yea, when I looked at Wundermap I was pretty surprised though I have not paid much attention the last few days.

Just my opinion but its not "out there" and totally different than the other readings. Mt Pocono had 46.

Now that you say that, I see it here. Looking at the climb up and down on the chart and other reading sin the mid 40's near there, its probably pretty close.

I am not sure how official any of the readings I see are but I saw a 46 in looking at one Them near that area this AM.

Our Western Brethren are taking a hard later summer hit today.

Cloudy and 72 here.

Have to stomp down that departure.

I have not been able to look myself so thanks for the update @TimB84

6Z GFS is a bit faster and the whole run is one big fallpalooza

paweather vs. Blizz next Monday.

It's been quite a while since I have seen a Pillow update.

Higher now than my last OB. 56.

As the candy man posted, it's no where near as cool in the central LSV. Quite the difference tonight. But feels great.

I was just going to post its already below the normal low for the day here at 55. High was only 77 today.

LOL, Dallas has not been to a Super Bowl in some 25 years. They are one of the hapless NFL teams since the 1990's. That QB down call on Herbert was a bit strange though. The Cowboys play calling and clock management was so bad they almost gave it back.

We went with twisted thicket and one blueberry adult slushie. And margarita pizza. And I agree it's a perfect day for this. One last summer fling. Lol. Musician is playing a lot of 90's grunge which is good by me but making the wife frown. Lol.

Lol, thanks. And yes football Sunday. Take care and heal up. Go Cowboys at 430.

This is a perfect day for a bottle, two cups and a pizza. Music starts in 5 min. Lol.

Go O's.
