Dez Bryant’s Amazing Catch Gets Overturned

By

Dez Bryant made one of the greatest catches I’ve ever seen in such a clutch moments but he didn’t make a football move and the amazing catch was wiped away and the Packers took over and won the game.

By rule, when a WR makes a catch, he must make a “football move” before going to the ground, Dez Bryant, according to the officials, did not make a football move, therefore the pass was ruled incomplete.

Weather or not we agree with the call, it was the right rule but it is a rule that should be explained better to all of us and most importantly it needs to be explained to the players. 

Do you think the catch should have stood as called? Let us know with a comment at the bottom!

  4. To me he has possession and he needs to have it through the ground and I understand that put he caught it gained possession knee hits and than ball hits than as his body rotates it comes out so idk to me it seems he should be down inside the 1 yard line.

    • Looked at it again does come out a bit earlier than I said however they always talk about “two points” which typically is both feet he has a knee and one of his elbows if anything. Maybe a fumble than recovery TD but hey i don’t care too much lol not a fan of the Cowboys or Packers.

  5. Awesome per NFL rules “no catch”. Fortunate for us Packer fans that the staff recognized it was worth losing the last time out to challenge. Definite game changer. Hats off to Bryant for even unofficially reeling it in. Hats off to Mike McCarthy, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers for challenging, and ending the Cowboys season!!! Go Pack!

  6. Going off of what Donald said previously, wasn’t his right elbow/forearm down before his left arm hit the ground and then he lost control? I agree he didn’t make the football move and lost control, but shouldn’t he have been ruled down by contact before all of that? I’m confused that no one is talking about that. I must be missing something….

    • No because he didnt make a football move while falling so as he is falling he needed to maintain posession of the ball. He did get his feet on the ground but they were never planted because he immediately started to fall so in that case he needed to maintain the posession of the ball. Even though dez says he streching for the TD he was simply falling.

  10. It really doesn’t matter at all though. Dallas would still almost certainly have lost. After that got overturned the packers drove into easy feild goal range when they were just trying to protect the ball
    If Dez scores there or the cowboys score in the next few plays, there is no way the Dallas defense would have held the packers out of feild goal range. This play really isnt as relevent or crucial as everyone is making it to be, Dallas had already dug their grave.
