Faceguarding is PI.
Actually, it isn't.

Don't forget Rodgers has that calf injury. He won't be able to move around like normal or scramble if need be.
But who was the one crying in the post game press conference?

We're gonna be playing football in the 2nd week of January.

What an awesome, awesome win.
We had every reason in the world to lose that game. Stupid penalties, missed FG, refusal to commit to the run, Barry Church's one man mission to get Taint into the Hall of Fame, and Lord Jesus, the mother of all gaffes when Lawrence fumbled.
But we did not quit. Romo led a 4th quarter comeback drive to take the lead, and the defense rose up, with Lawrence getting the strip/sack/recovery trifecta.
Fan-freaking-tastic.
If that punt didn't shank, do we win this game?
Actually, it isn't.
Who knows? Who cares?
All of the salt over this win of ours is magnificent, and I'd just like to send out a very special Kiss-My-Ass to all the Cowboy haters out there.
We're moving onto the 2nd round and that's all I care about.
But, it's awfully easy to come in after the fact and troll.
Or sit in the gameday thread and say stupid shit like Lotus did.
There is a lot of salt in this post game thread

Prepare for Ice Bowl highlights and people calling this Ice Bowl II (even though it should be III).
I think we agree on what's PI, but our definitions of 'faceguarding' is different. To clarify, a DB is given more leeway with physical contact if he was going for the ball versus not looking at the ball at all.
Had Hitchens been turned 180 degrees with back contacting Pettigrew, it wouldn't have been close to a PI. The fact that Hitchens hadn't turned his head at all, the flag came out because of the 'faceguard' position.
I don't mean to say that if Hitchens were 10 yards trailing his WR and faceguarding that there would be a penalty.
I post during the game and no one calls me out so I guess it's easy for me. I think you should probably just be happy that you were horribly wrong. Not sure it's a reason to get up in arms.
huh?
thought we were screwed after Bailey missed the gimme.
You can be an inch from a guy flailing in the air without ever looking for the ball and it isn't PI.
