Those tripping calls were bizarre, there had only been 6 all year and then 2 on Sunday? Dallas didn't seem particularly close to scoring a touchdown all game though.
But anyone that bet Dallas should still feel pretty fortunate that they kicked a FG down 7 late, that was incredibly stupid and gave them the cover.

They are fumbling at a slightly higher rate than before deflategate. Remember they did finish next to last in fumbles in 2016. And I do recall them losing a Super Bowl by fumbling! Now let's look at plays from scrimmage, because the fewer plays you run the less opportunity to fumble.
2008 1 in plays from scrimmage
2009 2
2010 22
2011 2
2012 1
2013 2
So like I stated before given that they've always had an amazing offense and ran so many plays, deflating the ball helped them keep possession of the football.

As you can see they are running fewer plays when compared to the rest of the league, so it's easier to finish in the top 5 in fumbles. Dude I don't think they care about the spread but as the "tuck rule" clearly demonstrated they do favour the Cheats! Nearly every close playoff game Cheats get all the close, borderline, calls!!
So let me guess Bellicheat is still to this day, the only coach that understands the importance of turnovers. See I address your questions, I'll ask mine again, how come the ref said Brady's arm was moving forward and no mention of the "tuck rule"? By virtue of the refs statement the tuck rule had no bearing on the play. Blatant BS done in plain view and everyone sucks it up. How come 5 holding penalties in 1500 playoff pass attempts (with the game still in question!) They gave Gronk a holding call last year with the game out of reach. Gotta make it look good! How come commentators like Romo or Boomer Esiason (Jags game, it's Gillette stadium you gotta expect flags) question calls that seem to always favour the Cheats? Better yet hall of famers saying Pats cheated, Dickerson, Faulk, Shula. I know I know the hall of famers are haters too! Funny no other hall of famers accuse other dynasties of cheating.
Let me make it simple
1) Blatant BS done it front of everyone, league tried to make amends by making up a "tuck rule"
2) Fewer plays from scrimmage means fewer opportunities to fumble
3) Fewest penalties by a WIDE margin in close playoff games! Not so in other games. (Let me guess, all the other coaches don't realize the importance of penalties.
Props to presenting an argument without posting dumb pics or name-calling.
You want to talk luck, Well if John Kasay doesn't kick the ball out of bounds, if Lee Evans holds on to the ball, if Billy Cundiff makes a field goal, if Thomas doesn't dislocate his shoulder, if Sherman doesn't injure his elbow, if Chacellor doesn't tear his MCL, if Lane doesn't break his arm, if Avril doesn't follow concussion protocol, if Edelman does follow concussion protocol, if Martz runs the ball, if Carroll ran the ball, if Quinn runs the ball, if the refs don't call a made up rule, if Ford doesn't line up offside, need I go on!?!?!?
