I just hope they can bring back both Dez and Murray next year. :/

The steps he took make absolutely NO difference. Before he even put the first foot down, he was already off balance and going to the ground. At that point, it doesn't matter if he took 20 steps. His body wasn't under control, and he needed to complete the catch going to ground. Whether he reached for the goal or not...again, irrelevant.
Simply put, Dez SHOULD have secured the catch, ESPECIALLY on a 4th down. He, as a professional receiver, should know the rules as well.
Total fail by Dez for not completing the catch. It was the correct call, and Cowboys fans should quit whining about a correct call.
