That Hasselback fumble call just proves how bad this crew was. The ground doesn't cause fumbles and it should never have needed to be reviewed and reversed.
When did Big Ben cross the goal line. The ball only touched the paint when he was flat on his belly with three guys on top of him.
Horrible officiating and the world got to see it all.

The push was a good call, if he hadn't pushed off, he wouldn't have made the catch.
The fumble call was good to let it go to replay. If he would have gone down untouched, it would have been a fumble. The touching by the defense seemed very slight and could easily have been missed on the field. This is one case where the ground could cause a fumble under NFL rules.
The touchdown was close. It looked like it may have crossed the plane before he was hit and knocked back. Watching it in slow motion on TIVO, it was hard to tell and definetely should not have been overturned.
Overall, I think the crew did a good job.
