Christian Watson was never touched on this third-and-13 conversion on the Packers’ opening drive. Refs didn’t blow it dead because he went down at the GB 43 and next play was from the DAL 46 after he got up, kept running, stopped and gave ball to ref there. Multiple people on sideline told him to keep going. Packers still got seven on the drive.
