I thought he used the ground along with his leg to secure the ball. It was really close and there was definitely not enough evidence to say conclusively either way, but I thought they got it right after watching several times. It certainly wasn't the awful call many on here seem to think it was, in my opinion.
Yeah it looked more like a sure catch on the video board, a little more iffy on the replay.
In the end, the ball hit him in his hands, both hands were on the football before it hit the ground and he maintained possession with both hands around the ball for the entirety of the catch.
If the call went the other way there'd probably be a lot less butthurt in here right now.
Again, can't blame it all on one thing but that really was a killer call after a lucky play.
