Fantastic catch -- were it completed entirely in the field of play. But don't understand how it was a catch when he doesn't secure the ball until after only left foot touches down. At this point, I don't know what is a catch. The rules for catch where it concerns being a runner, going to the ground, control, possession, movement, etc. needs to be thoroughly re-visited because as of now the rulebook reads like a litany of contradiction. http://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/2015-nfl-rulebook/#rule-8.-forward-pass,-backward-pass,-fumble
It was not a catch. Player needs full control of the ball before feet are counted as in. When he finally controls the ball, his second foot is not in. Not even close.
I couldn't figure out what would disqualify it as a catch but in the NFL you never know and I was surprised when they gave it to him. The ball was always in control against his body during the catch both inbounds and out. He didn't have two hands on it the whole time and where he had it secured kept changing but he had it secured and it never wobbled at any point. Once they called it a catch that wasn't going to get overturned on review. If they'd called it incomplete there's no way that would have gotten overturned either.
Maybe you're talking about a different catch? Lol Because the one we are talking about was no where near in control the entire time lol I highly suggest you watch it again please.
Moving with the movement of his body is not the same as moving freely and not controlled. The ball is technically not moving, by the rule, it's just moving because his body is moving. Amazing catch that defies logic of what a catch should be. This was a catch but Dez's last year isn't? Your rule is fucked when it results in those rulings.
why are you here? its no wonder so many folks get on you for being a douche when they are discussing a play and the call that was made. it has nothing to do with them rooting for or against that particular team its a conversation about a singular play. i bet you catch the ban hammer this week if you keep this dumb shit up.
Because that person posted some definate whine worthy comments in my direction. I've not been chatting here much but we all see the game differently The game is fixed for profit and its scripted......hope my team wins
Every post you make is whining about the patriots or the steelers. Then you made a whole thread whining about Vontaze Burfict on a Jets board full of Jets fans that don't like the steelers to begin with. You're an idiot to expect any sympathy, especially after being nothing but an annoying troll for the last few months.
it was a catch http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...e-td-catch-in-steelers-bengals-wild-card-game there is a link to the video. at 38-39 seconds you see he has full control with 1 hand and a leg and both feet get down. then he maintains possession through the catch
