This. Even though a running back can fumble it whenever he wants. Just as long as it crosses the line. Pretty ridiculous.

I don't know what's a catch anymore.

It is clear from this thread that no one really does, myself included.

Looks like by the time he gets his foot down possession is 50 50. Not complete control. Then lost it.

But by rule, a tie goes to the offensive player.

they should have held him out till the Raiders game.

This is not true. Their hands are intertwined but the DB does not make a play on the ball untill well after both feet are down

That's a good point...hard to tell if #28's hip prevented him from dropping it though. It looks like his had was slipping off the ball at the very last second.

I dont think they would have overturned it....

NFL rules have jumped the ****ing shark. Most of the time a receiver can body slam a defender and the defender will get called for interference, but for some reason they have turned "completing the catch" into some vague wasteland of referee interpretation.

And then they overturn the JETS touchdown ...

The outcome of games is determined by judgement calls far too often, and I'm convinced the NFL has done this on purpose.

If he would of came away with the ball sure. But the defender stopped him from having complete control of the ball before the 2nd foot. Then he lost it. No way was it a catch.
I wish it were.

Our guys for the most part are soft.

Disagree. He had two hands firmly on the ball, and was the only one touching the ball until he has two feet down. I can totally understand people saying this is not a catch under NFL rules, and having control with two feet down doesn't mean it's a catch, just saying he had control with two feet down.

Agreed...his elbow isn't competing for the ball, it's trying to knock the ball out of his hands which doesn't happen until well after possession.

All he had to do was fall forward towards the ball and he would have maintained possession. I think it's 50/50 if Andy challenges.

Harris looks like a basketball player playing football.

I can't gif this, but look at the second video in this link with the different angle.
