Dez Bryant looked more like Ezekiel Elliott in scoring a remarkable touchdown Monday night against the Cardinals. 

Bryant caught a simple short pass 12 yards shy of the goal line, made one defender miss, then another, then churned through a group of Arizona players to reach the end zone. 

The touchdown call was upheld after a replay review. 

By my count, nine players attempted to tackle Bryant on the play. Somehow, they all failed.
