ball carrier fumbles the ball forward into and out of the other teams' end zone?

i noticed when the chargers ball carrier fumbled the ball into the end zone from the 1, and the colts jumped on it for a touchback, john madden said, "the colts got on it before it went out of the end zone", but would it have mattered? wouldn't it have been a touchback/turnover regardless? in the nfl, isn't it a touchback when you fumble into and out of the other team's end zone? i don't think it's a good rule, i think you should get it at the 1, but i'm pretty sure this is the rule.
