get this, dean blandino never has refed on an nfl field, the nfl gave him that job because of the videoing he did for replay stuff etc,

says body part has to touch the ground before dez is out of bounds, with the elbow out of bounds, so get this, the foot shows on the ground but dean blandino doesnt recognize that as a body part

The bomb? Or the tip to himself elbow knee simultaneous play?

Dez will NEVER get the benefit of a call if it goes to replay.

Another call that should have stood, but in the end I wasn't going to whine too hard for the overturn.

My first inclination was he caught it, then watching the replay could see the overturn but man I don't know it was pretty simultaneous and should have stood. Great players are being marginalized by the NFL "steering" comittee.

the elbow does touch but dean blandino says (now get this) the foot does show touching the ground, but dean blandino doesnt recognize the foot as a body part, and he is head nfl ref, a guy that has never refed an nfl game on the field in his life, didnt play college or pro football either

That wasn't a catch, because Dez didn't get both feet (or one elbow or one knee) down in bounds before his elbow hit out of bounds.
