by rule,
that should be a TD!!!!!!!!!!!!

[/ QUOTE ]

offense never lost possession

receiver went up and got the ball...
doesn't matter the defender had more of it

they both had the ball

that's a catch and a TD by the NFL rules



of course, the NFL doesn't follow rules, so it's unsurprising

On the one replay you could see that the defender had the ball firmly wrapped up in his gut, and the Driver had like barely one hand on it. That does not count as joint posession. It wasn't that the Bears guy had "more" of it it was that he had it and the other guy was kind of touching it.

lol....Driver had both hands on it from the highest point

they caught the ball together....doesn't matter how much it was in the defender's gut

I don't know what to say, thats not what it looked like at all on the one replay, the one that had the best angle. Its possible that I, and everyone else in this thread, is just completely blind.

it's pretty clear that you are wrong on most everything

one of the other posters is a Bears fan

not sure about the person with the norcal location

I hate the bears. The view from the other end zone was clear. The defender had sole possession when he hit the ground.
