It's confusing to me too. Clearly the way that Cruz got up off the turf leaving the ball on the turf he considered himself down. What is the difference between considering yourself down and giving yourself up? In my mind, by leaving the ball on the turf, that is a clear indication that he had given himself up.
In contradiction to this line of thought, a couple years ago, some hot shot WR caught the ball and spun it on the turf in celebration without being touched, and that was considered a fumble, if I remember correctly.
So yeah, it's confusing.
