But whatever. Moving on to next week. Chiefs played like horseshit yesterday with a bunch of back-ups and still nearly won. 5 and 1 - not much to complain about.

I'm assuming he's actually joking, based on teh Pats/Jets play. Here, that kind of play in the end zone can ONLY be a TD or an incomplete pass. A fumble/touchback is impossible because if the catch is complete, the play is immediately dead. There is no opportunity to fumble.
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.
