Twitter reacts to an incredible catch from Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant being overturned and ruled incomplete.

The Dallas Cowboys got the benefit of a questionable call in the Wild Card round against the Detroit Lions when a pass interference flag was picked up. On Sunday in the Divisional Round of the playoffs they were on the other end of a lousy call when an incredible Dez Bryant catch was overturned and ruled an incomplete pass.

Judging by the reactions on Twitter, everyone things it was a horrendous call.

That looked like a catch. I have no idea what a catch is. #DEZ #COWBOYS

Good thing for the NFL that the officiating won't be the story again this week... Oh, wait....

Another week, another playoff Sunday when the biggest story is the officiating. Not good, NFL.

Looked like Dez caught the ball and dove for the pylon IMO. "I took three steps" you could read his lips. #Cowboys.

Good call on @DezBryant but it's a bad rule! Penalized trying to reach for the goal line. #changetherule

Even wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr, who plays for the Cowboys rivals the New York Giants, thought it was a catch.
