    The ball bounced up and he ended up catching it in bounds at the end. You never see it definitively hit the ground therefore the call must stay as called on the field.

    According to the rule they got the call right but as it is written its a bad rule and needs to be changed. to cover situations like this.

    And the Green Bay guy trapped the ball on the ground and they made it a catch. Total BS!

    Sure they did. The view from the front shows the ball unimpeded hitting the ground and the nose of the football moves.

    I'm on your side but I think you are seeing it from the Dallas view.

    I've watched that clip a thousand times, the best view is the camera that's by the pylon, and at no point does it clearly show the ball the hit the ground.

    Can't be. JJ can't be outbid by anyone in Green Bay, that kills that theory.
