Greg Jennings' Non-TD · PACKERSHOME

Obviously we're biased, but is there anybody in here who does not think Greg Jennings caught a TD pass today? He caught the ball and took two steps before the ball was dislodged by the defender. He was NOT falling down when he lost control, as the official claimed.

I still blame Jennings a little for not securing the ball better. That's the kind of year it's been for him. But I still thought the refs blew the call.

They paid us back on the interference non call by Hawk. At least to some degree. The Perierra will admit that was a mistake later in the week.

By rule I believe it was a TD. The idea of the coming up with the ball isn't for that type of situation. It is for a jump ball, diving catch, or low throw. He had already maintained possession and at that point its a touchdown. Right when he put both feet down one after another the play should end. Touchdown in my opinion.

Wouldn't it have been a fumble that went through the back of the end zone?

no because the touchdown would've been scored before the ball came out. like when a RB reaches the ball over the goal-line on a short TD run and the ball gets knocked out; if the ball crosses the line before it gets knocked out, it's not a fumble, it's a TD

So then the 2 feet and possession determine a TD? Then yeah, it was definitely a TD. It's a good thing we didn't lose the game because of it.

Because the official ruled that he was falling, it was technically the correct call. If you are falling when you catch in the end zone, you must maintain possession all the way to the ground. Jennings failed to do that, so it was not a touchdown. The issue at hand is whether he was falling or not when he caught the ball.

I had to look up the rule of a catch. And by the rule, two feet, possession, means catch. He had that, then the ball was knocked out during his third step.
