Allen Park — The call was controversial, an unnecessary roughness flag thrown against Detroit Lions defensive end Romeo Okwara, giving the Dallas Cowboys a first down and setting up a 39-yard screen pass touchdown at the end of the first half of Sunday's game.
Okwara, rushing off the right side, got a hand on Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, who stumbled and dropped to a knee. He quickly popped back to his feet, and without the whistle blowing, Okwara continued his rush and popped the quarterback hard, drawing the flag.
A day after watching the play, Okwara said he's moving on, but didn't feel there's much he could have done differently.
