Officials completely blew a call against the Green Bay Packers on the Dallas Cowboys first drive that resulted in a touchdown instead of a likely field goal attempt.

Facing third-and-goal, Dez Bryant ran an in route and went to the ground attempting to make a catch. Instead, he missed the ball and a defender's arm hit Bryant's helmet. After a brief no-call, the ref tossed a flag and called unnecessary roughness as an illegal hit on a defenseless player.

Dak Prescott completed the very next pass for a touchdown, and Dallas took an early 7-0 lead.
