    Don't get me wrong, I'm glad we won, I'd just rather it happen without the refs help.

    It's a garbage call. Now we're talking about three steps. He possessed the ball. Two steps. A "football move" is equivalent to a commentator trying to praise a scrub as "he's a football player!"

    They all are! But steelers won. Still a stupid offense and nothing in the middle. Zero

    I think the fine line was the CB was still defending the play. If a WR caught the ball on his toes and fell out of bounds, but had possession and lost the ball before he hit the ground it would be incomplete too.

    He needs to act like he's been there before. Maybe after a few more years of experience will help.

    Correct. What was the football move that makes it a bad call? Answer; there wasn't any.

    I think he had time to quickly bring that ball to his chest. Felt like this was mild show-boating “Look at me, I caught the winning TD” Why “seemingly” grandstand there by hanging the ball out on a clothes line. I don’t know, maybe once I rewatch the tape, I’ll see he didn’t have time to pull that ball in ?

    What "football move" is there to be made once you're in the end zone?

    A 3rd step, pulling the ball into your chest.

    Well, good job giving effort all the way to the end knocking it out.
