OTOTOT,
RE:"His knees have absolutely nothing to do with anything. The ball not coming loose has nothing to do with anything. This is simply a case of people not understanding the rules.

I'd like to see a single official who knows the rules come out and say that the pass was completed. My guess is you can't find one"

If a player is touched by an opposing player, he is down by contact when his knee hits. I believe the receiver was touched.
If the receiver had possession prior to the ball hitting the ground then the ground did not assist in the catch. This is what everyone saw. The receiver did not use the ground to assist in the catch which
is the rule youe are mistakenly using, as were the refs.
The announcers, well versed in the rules, especially Madden, a Super bowl coach, stated they saw no reason to review the play much less
overturn the decision on the field. The fact that it took 2 officials to overturn the call while everyone on the field had already accepted the original call casts doubt on the whole process.
