Cowboys News: Controversial Call Costs Dez Bryant, Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys benefitted from a controversial call against the Detroit Lions in their Wild Card matchup, but they were burned by one against the Green Bay Packers.

Head coach Jason Garrett decided to go for it on a 4th-and-2 with less than five minutes to play trailing 26-21, letting quarterback Tony Romo throw the ball up to Dez Bryant:

The play was ruled a catch on the field, but it was overturned on replay when it was determined that Bryant didn't complete the catch.

Green Bay got the ball back, and Dallas' offense never got another chance. The Packers will face the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship Game next Sunday.
