Mike McCarthy Addresses Dez Bryant Play He Challenged in 2015 Divisional Round Game

Mike McCarthy's history with the Green Bay Packers has not been overlooked in his first days as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys.

As he was officially being introduced to his new role in a press conference on Wednesday, McCarthy was faced with a difficult question—"Did Dez catch it?"

It is something that has been asked of the coach many times. The McCarthy-led Packers faced the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC Divisional Round in 2015. While the Packers held a 26-21 lead with 4:37 remaining in the game, Dez Bryant seemed to make an athletic catch near the goal line on fourth down.
