I hate NFL catch rules. That's a catch. Probably be ruled incomplete on the stupid technicalities.

McAuley said it shouldn’t be a catch, so Boger will rule it a catch at this rate lol

Yeah this is my feeling 100%. That's a catch - but by the letter of their rules it isn't but it clearly is. They need to re-write that rule.

Is it just me or is it like. Kind of extremely loving stupid that you can get away with a blatantly incorrect play by just doing the next play really fast before someone can get his red hankie out?

Not saying that play was blatantly incorrect. Just. In general.

A fair point, if you ignore the rules it is a catch

If it weren't for the defender knocking the ball out after the two steps, he totally has possession, so I could see the argument it's a fumble.

No it's also a catch by the letter of the rule, common sense, the bible, etc.

e: holy poo poo lol. can't believe they reversed that

Thats a catch + punch-out shortly after. Looked like an incomplete in real time but I think the initial call actually got it correct, somehow.

Eh, that's just kinda sports in general. The best way to get an error ignored is give the refs/umps/whatever something else to think about. Onus is on the offended party to draw attention to it as fast as possible.

The NFL is incredibly stupid.

Also, I think if they don't rush that it may not have been challenged.

If that should be a catch, what would the book definition of a catch be in the ideal world? There has to be one, it can't just go by feel.

Yeah but in hockey or baseball , you can't just, for example, rush to the next face-off or the next pitch to stop the other team from being able to challenge.

Also those sports don't involve throwing a red hankie. You just. You just talk to the official.

I don't understand the obsession with the earlier inadvertent whistle, it didn't impact that play at all.

If you hike it before you're lined up and take the penalty, does that still make it so the other team can't challenge the previous play?

a catch is control, two feet down, and either a third step or a football move... all of which happened there
