It’s (semi) official: Dez caught it
Over three years have passed, but it still rankles Dallas Cowboys fans. “It” of course being the infamous ruling that Dez Bryant did not catch a pass at the goalline against the Green Bay Packers during the playoffs following the 2014 season. While it was not the only thing that cost Dallas the game (I’m looking at you and your fumble, DeMarco Murray), it almost certainly cost the Cowboys a chance to take a late lead and made things much, much harder for them. The Packers would go on to win that game, in what turned out to be the last real shot for Tony Romo to lead Dallas to the Super Bowl, and really was the last really meaningful game of his injury-shortened career. It also gave birth to a meme that lives on to this day.
