Nice find. If Eisen knows what he's talking about, then sounds like the ruling on Sunday was correct.

See the link I posted. The Butler strip of OBJ a half-second after the "catch". That's incomplete, and has been consistently called that way for quite a while now.
yeah... I think your video proves my point more than yours, but we are disagreeing over an interpretation of "simultaneous". In the rule-book vid, the rule states "if the ball comes out simultaneous or near simultaneous to the second foot coming down it's incomplete".... In the OBJ "catch" the ball is punched out almost exactly as the second foot comes down or just a hair after. However, Harris actually took 3 steps, not 2, before the ball BEGINS to get stripped and they start wrestling.

But I agree, they would have never given the Chiefs that call, or overturned the call on the field. Should have kicked the dang FG anyway, so...

Correct, it couldn't be a fumble, just an incompletion. But I've thought on a number of occasions - since this new "complete the process of the catch" rule - that some of these players spike the ball way too quickly, but I've not seen anyone get burned on it yet.

If people think thats a catch then they've been living under a rock since 2010.

I do think if you got two feet down and immediately spiked the ball, you'd definitely be at risk of having it called incomplete. Pretty silly, but not worth the risk. It's another reason to like Gronk's big wind up. It usually takes him like 5 seconds to finally spike the damn thing. :LOL:

Definitely not a catch... Lots of homer posts in this thread.

Warrick 10-16-2017 05:03 PM
“I feel like I had the ball long enough, for two seconds, to call it a touchdown,” Harris said.


*Regardless what you believe there should of been a pass interference called on that play.

this is my question

how long does he have to stand there, even if a defender has his hand touching the ball....? 1 second? 5? I would think zero as well....

3. Is he capable of turning up field? No, again because #28 is now at his feet impeding his progress and tripping him up.

4. Is he capable of taking additional steps? Not while keeping his arms attached to both himself and the football.

aslo, those are an "or" situation, correct? so just fulflling any of the conditions would satisfy the argument. seemingly

Yes. Any single one and it should have been ruled a catch. He didn't clearly make a 3rd step before the ball came loose, at least that I can see.

MahiMike 10-16-2017 06:23 PM
What catch?

Pointer19 10-16-2017 06:33 PM
I may just be a homer, but I'll stand by my initial reaction that it's a catch.

If he didn't have possession, no way did Harris.

You have to ask why not run Kelce on that route and have Harris split wide. Kelce has much better hands and burst. Much better chance of him coming down with that football.
I saw a play where he was running his route like he still had a concussion.

He had no fire yesterday.

Here's all you need (maybe), including video showing complete/incomplete catches. Note the Beckham incomplete pass in the end zone when Butler knocks it out. Starts at about 1:12. Two feet down, clear control, then Butler knocks it out a half-second later. INcomplete.

In the Beckham catch, Butler knocked the ball out before a 3rd step was made. Harris took an additional step after both feet landed before the ball was knocked out.

He can't catch.

He can't block.


Except that he caught the ball.
