nico002 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 The ball can touch the ground if you have possession (ball isn't moving) before and after hitting the ground. In this case he had neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a very clear no catch. Someone has to show me a gif or a replay of this because not once was that shown on tv replays, not once. After the initial angle simms and nance asked, but did the tip of the ball hit the ground? they immediately showed another angle and once again it did not. Until I see someone post an image of this I'll just go right on thinking the call was botched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Okay that image will suffice, I'll recant my outrage. (I still think the catch rules are worse than moronic.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bostonmajet Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Personally, I think they should revert the rule back; just like the push out rule was removed, the new rule (should be the old rule); if the ball touches the ground it isn't a catch. It was much simpler back then (of course the Monday night miracle wouldn't have happened). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
