Mike Pereria earlier this season said a whistle is not required to end a play, therefore, a whistle may not have sounded.
As I saw it the official who signalled down was on th eleft side of the runner, the ball came loose on the right side, therefore, he was not in good position to see the loose ball.
It was interesting to note Ed Hochuli reviewed not only the fumble but continued by reviewing to make sure Green Bay gained possession of the ball for the TD.
