I believe in the NFL, a player who is being tackled immediately after going airborn to catch a pass must come down with 2 feet inbounds (which was met in the play) AND must demonstrate possession of the ball after he lands on the ground (did not meet this requirement).
I'd be curious to hear how others would have ruled had this been a high school or college game. I'm thinking (after seeing it in slow motion replay 10 times - LOL) that I would have rules touchdown in high school or college.
