I need to see this clear picture of his feet off the ground cause it certainly didn't look like they were off the ground on the replay footage.


Edit- After looking at the picture there are two things wrong with your theory.

#1 you can only see that one foot is clearly off the ground and the #2 thing is that is right at the moment he caught the ball and is not an accurate picture of the play as a whole. You need a picture of after he's caught the ball, come to the ground, and turned his body toward the out of bounds.

It was a TD and it's sour grapes from people attempting to take that TD away because they are upset the Steelers won.

It was a TD, his feet came down in bounds just cause they have a pick before his feet hit doesn't change that.

I thought the refs missed a few calls both ways today but that TD was not one of them

His foot is off the ground but how do you know it doesn't come down AFTER that point?

Both feet were down at one point.

Legit TD and great grab... now may the steelers all get dysentery at Disney World.

The replay during the game clearly showed both feet down.

Good point. But watch the replay again, never comes down again.

Yes it did lol. It was a TD. Plain and simple.

NBC showed it on their "NBCee It", his right foot was on the ground.

Looking at the overhead replays, which they showed over and over and over again, it looked good.

But when they showed the replay from field level, one of his feet looked like it never hit inbounds. It looked like it was caught up on his cleat.

Whatever though....

I think that and harrisons TD were good without question.

now the missed excessive celebration at a critical moment is horrible.

the officials should be held accountable for that.

I don't know, about that. I am not sure they call that at end of fourth quarter. I have more problems with the way 3rd quarter that one drive that really titled the calls completely against Cards.

And that complete blown of a call, they called a fumble. Absolutely no reason for that. Good for cards having a replay left. That would have been terrible if they didn't have one.
