This link proves it was the correct call.

You see it on his arm and you see the threads...

You see it off his arm and on the ground and no threads.

It is on the ground, nothing between the ball and the green....

What is not conclusive about that? as soon as it is rolling and hits the ground it is, by rule, incomplete!

This right here ^^ I'm a big Cowboys fan, Dez fan, and he is on my Fantasy Football team and I still can't deny that that ball hit the ground and rolled. That was an incomplete pass. We would have still gotten the football at the 1 yard because of the pass interference. I'm not sure what people are looking at, that ball rolled on the ground.

See the post right above yours. Plus the fact that there is no conclusive proof he didn't have the ball on his arm. You just can't see it. You know the ball was on his arm when he started to roll.

Can we get a poll on this?

[blindzebra]

To all those saying it clearly rolled...did it roll a full 360 degrees?

Because the laces on the ball in relation to Dez' forearm remained in exactly the same place when he first hit the ground until he rolled back over.

And I am a huge Dez critic, but there was simply not enough evidence to overturn that. I really hope some of you people never serve on a jury.

A case could be made either way, but it was far from "clear." That's why it wasn't overturned.

That made me laugh

In all honesty, I would have overturned the call. It looked like the ball rolled and made contact with the turf. But we deserve a break......lord knows we deserve a break. Hell, the the Eli-led Giants have won 2 Superbowls with luck and fortunate calls. Can we have a little something go our way? Yeah, I said it!

You'd have to be an *** **** to think that was an incomplete pass.

[Oh_Canada]

There was nothing conclusive on that replay....zilch.

I agree...Personally thought it was incomplete but not enough there to reverse the call

You can tell that, while touching the ground, it rolled 180 degrees almost exactly.

He cradled and secured the ball with his right arm, and while the impact caused the ball to move he never lost control of the ball.

Actually, if the ball moves, it's loss of control.
