Cowboys' Mike McCarthy 'Surprised' by Pass Interference Call on Michael Gallup

There were a number of individual plays that could have swung the Dallas Cowboys' 20-17 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in their season opener, but one in particular stands out.

Dak Prescott connected with Michael Gallup on a 47-yard pass during the Cowboys' final possession, which moved them into the red zone and field-goal range. However, it was nullified because Gallup was called for offensive pass interference.

"I was surprised there was a call there … particularly at that point in the game," head coach Mike McCarthy said, per Jon Machota of The Athletic.
