2. His last step was clearly in bounds, and then he starts to try to transfer the ball from the left hand to the right.
3. As he loses control of the ball and is heading out of bounds, the ball CLEARLY lands either in the end zone or right on the line, which means it was in bounds crossing the goal line, which means it's a touchback for the Packers (rather than Chiefs possession at wherever it went out of bounds).
There was nothing to obscure the view and it looked pretty clear to me. I'd say there was indisputable evidence sufficient to overturn.
In a 9-7 game, why the HELL didn't McCarthy challenge?!?!?!

I think it was a fumble but I'm not sure where you get this indisputable evidence from. The ball left his hand at almost the exact same time his foot touched the white.
