Still disagree.  Hand was moving forward.

It doesn’t matter. He was diving and the ball wasn’t tight in his hand. When his hand came forward the ball went more up than out. That is a clear indicator of a fumble versus incomplete pass.

[NoCalMike]

With that 1st down conversion the game is over.  Congrats to Dallas for beating a team with half it's red shirt team playing.

Honestly. It’s best they lost. They didn’t deserve to win. What, 5 turnovers? Team needs to learn you can’t get away with bad football.

With all respect, if this team hasn't learned that by now...

We always deserve to win even when we don't.

No. We want to win, doesn’t mean we deserve to.

I predicated 27 in second half. Came damn close too if Carter hadn't dropped that.

 

He's not use to catching passes in front of him. Those easy catches are new this year. Allen should have thrown it 5 yards behind him and a little high.

[TradeTheBeal!]

The effort was good today.  But we got outcoached early and injuries/COVID is a real problem for us.

Yeah, it would have been nice.

We really can’t knock the man though because he’s been a huge bright spot.

He’s paid to make plays like that.

You wouldn’t have put him in because he’s better than Heinicke, though. Heinicke didn’t look right and had taken a few hits. You pull him to prevent mental damage in the Dallas game and to prevent injury. 
 

Allen isn’t better than Heinicke. And he won’t be on the roster next year. 

Allen may not be better than Heineke. But he made 2 throws in the past 2 drives that Heinike is incapable of making.

And why we need to draft a qb early

 

QBs have bad games, but Taylor doesn't have the same built credibility to have a game like this.  Like @Voice_of_Reason said, the odds of going undefeated into the playoffs was slim, a loss somewhere made more sense.  Is this that one loss in a string of wins?  Idk, we are really beat up, and Taylor could be out

[dyst]

Or we could not have mediocre QBs so we’re not in this position - instead of blaming the refs.

Following the thread. How far was the pass Carter dropped? Easy catch?

 

In his hands, perfectly thrown, perfectly brought in, and dropped it.

[Tonysoprano1]

Drop by Carter, then another bad play by our QB. Fitting loss

Not really. We’d gotten away with a lot of luck the last 4 weeks. A lot of Taylor throws should have been intercepted and weren’t, this was karma for those.

I agree the officials got it correct according to the rules, but I also agree that we see plays like that all the time that are ruled fumbles live, yet overturned after replay.

This is dumb. If Carter catches that pass and then hypothetically Allen throws a dart to the endzone for the TD, then of course they’d deserve to win (if they finished it) and build their resume, that’s how the NFL works. This isn’t a good team but they’d have persevered and finally played opportunist football to the end against a better team in Dallas. And they’d be one W closer to a potential division championship that they could build on. 
 

None of that happened, but if it did, they’d have deserved the damn W. The way you know they didn’t deserve it is that they didn’t ****ing do it.

 Carter, that is why you were on the street. Guess we all needed a reminder of that.  

[dc1]

See you next week folks.  

[JSSkinz]

Allen has good better arm strength and accuracy by far but lacks the elusiveness in the pocket , great throw with the game on the line to Carter, he made the play but Carter didn't.

Horrendous drop by Carter at any level above pee-wee

Do you ever believe in just taking the high road? OR you love pouring salt on wounds of others. 🙄

Easy? No but definitely a catch that should have been made.

He’s barely paid enough to waive his arms 3 times a game as the ball bounces over his head.

coaches need to do so much better. Really really disappointed with Turner. The game plan today was totally unacceptable.

Absolutely an easy catch at the NFL level

I dunno we’re so banged up and the backups were deer in the headlights. I think pulling out a win would have built confidence
