That one was easy. TD.

Can't see how Chris not sure he was a runner. He had run several steps before the dive. Easy.

 

[JoMo MoJo]

The other was just as easy.

It was 7 full yards from catch to the ball contacting the ground. Not that anyone knows that "the process" is, but it probably should span 21 feet of distance.

I can pull 2 hammies and develop turf toe in that distance.

People giving Collinsworth **** about his indecision to call this a TD: Have you watched the NFL the last five years or so? It didn't take them 3+ minutes to review it because it was an easy call. That was obviously a catch to those of us who use the word 'catch' the way the general public does, but in NFL lingo that was just BARELY a catch. It came down to the sujective call of whether or not he would have fallen down had a defender not been in his way... Not the easiest thing to decide upon. Him planting his foot for the dive is what made him a 'runner' for me, but that would have been possible for someone who was already falling down.

Cmon NFL, enough with this crap. If a guy has 2 hands or the ball is in his arms and he has 2 feet down......Its a friggin catch!!!! Enough with the movement of the ball in the arms. And when a receiver catches the ball and takes 2 steps, he is a runner and the ball is a TD when it touches or crosses over the goalline.

I'm sure Collinsworth would lose quite a few of his stats if this rule was in place during his playing days.

It’s a player safety issue. They don’t want guys getting crushed while going up to make a catch.

My only gripe was the comparison of this catch with Pittsburgh's Jesse James' non-catch vs NE. The two plays were not that similar in terms of which was pretty obviously a catch, run and dive.
