As others have said, officials are always told: See the whole play before ruling. Getting much out of stills is highly imprecise.

That said, if these photos happen at the speed that I'm guessing they do, this should probably be incomplete. The rule of thumb I use (some will argue) is this: Would I want it to be a catch-and-fumble if the play happened at midfield? If the answer is no, then I don't have a catch in the end zone either.
